the Minneapolis convention, later going 

 to Denver to the park superintendents' 

 convention. 



Mr. and Mrs. B. Hammond Tracy both 

 expect to attend the Minneapolis con- 

 vention. Some grand gladioli from their 

 nurseries are arriving in Boston. 



Much convention talk is now heard. 

 Quite a few are as yet undecided about 

 going, having a strong yearning for 

 mountain and seashore. These are be- 

 ing worked upon by those who are quite 

 sure of making the trip. 



William Sim is now picking tomatoes, 

 practically by the ton daily, from his 

 Cliftondale establishment; also quanti- 

 ties of Early Cory sweet corn. 



W, N. Craig. 



R. & J. Farquhar & Co. have brought 

 suit against the city of Boston for 

 $10,000 damage done to the plants in 

 their nurseries at Dedham by the burst- 

 ing of water pipes which run through 

 their property. It is charged that the 

 poor condition of the pipes was due to 

 negligence on the part of the city. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 

 Asters are predominating now. Car- 

 nations are out of the market. Roses 

 are equal to the demand, but no fancy 

 stock is to be seen. Trade is dull. The 

 usual August calm is on and growers 

 and storemen are taking their needed 

 vacations. 



Florists' Picnic. 



Picnic day at Puritan Springs park 

 was a dandy, just warm enough to be 

 comfortable during the ball game and 

 races. Later, just at lunch time, it 

 rained, so that everyone was soaked and 

 happy. The various prizes were awarded 

 as follows:
