The Market. 



It is astonishing to what a slight de- 

 gree the so-called financial stringency 

 of the present time affects the flower 

 market. June was a record month and 

 July has written up figures that three 

 years ago would not have been dreamed 

 of for the warmest month of the year. 

 All the young stock is coming along 

 well, and outdoor sweet peas and car- 

 nations are being favored by the right 

 kind of weather conditions. Asters, un- 

 fortunately, are suffering more or less 

 from the bug, which up to the present 

 has defied all efforts to exterminate it. 

 A few Golden Glow mums came in 

 early in July. 



Various Notes. 



American Beauties at the Dale Es- 

 tate were never such a failure as last 

 season. Growers and methods have 

 been changed this summer, and results 

 will be awaited with the greatest in- 

 terest by every man and boy on the 

 establishment. Superintendent Edward 

 Dale was last heard of from Belfast, 

 Ireland, where he and his daughter 

 watched the procession of Orangemen, 

 on the celebrated July 12, take two 

 hours and forty-five minutes to pass a 

 given point. 



This week the Canadian Horticultural 

 Association 's annual convention is to 

 be held at Peterborough, Ont., but it is 

 feared that the arduous tasks of the 

 last twelve months, necessitating longer 

 vacations, will prevent many Bramp- 

 tonians from attending. 



The daily papers report a serious ac- 

 cident to W. W. Gammage, the whole- 

 sale florist of London, Ont. Mr. Gam- 

 mage was motoring with two friends 

 in the neighborhood of Ailsa Craig, 

 when the car was upset. The two 

 friends were thrown clear of the ma- 

 chine, but Mr. Gammage was pinned 

 under the steering wheel. He was se- 

 riously crushed before being released, 

 and was removed to a house near by, 

 where physicians were speedily in at- 

 tendance. The trade will wish him a 

 speedy recovery. W. G. P.
