The Market. 



Business is quiet, as is usual for 

 August. Funeral work is about the 

 only thing doing. Outdoor flowers of 

 quality are scarce just now, owing to 

 the long dry spell. In roses, Maryland, 

 Taft and Double White Killarney are 

 the most sought after at present. 



Various Notes. 



Louis Barton, of Elmwood, is cutting 

 fine Taft. His other roses are coming 

 along nicely, after having "just been 

 pruned. 



George G. McClunie reports business 

 for July double that of last year. 



Page Potter, of the Bon Ton Flower 

 Shop, has returned after visiting in 

 Vermont. 



Ed Welch is building a new green- 

 house for carnations at his place on 

 Annawan street. 



At the establishment of A. N. Pier- 

 son, Inc., Cromwell, vacations are in 

 full swing, both among the office and 

 greenhouse force. A. N. Pierson is in 

 Europe on an extended trip. W. R. 

 Pierson will attend the convention at 

 Minneapolis. The stork left a nine- 

 pound boy at the home of Robert Small - 

 wood, of the rose growers' staff, last 

 month. J. McLane, shipping clerk, has 

 the sympathy of the trade in the loss 

 of his daughter, Sarah. R. C. S.
