The Market. 



Business for the last week has been 

 quite satisfactory, and the stores in gen- 

 eral have been more or less busy. There 

 was a heavy demand the first part of 

 the week, but trade slackened up some- 

 what towards the end. Cut stock is a 

 little more plentiful now, but the rain, 

 which is needed so badly, holds off, and 

 in a great many places outdoor stock is 

 suffering a great deal. There is a con- 

 tinual cry for asters, but the few that 

 arrive are quite poor, having short 

 stems and small blossoms. 



There seems to be an extremely lim- 

 ited supply of all kinds of stock. Car- 

 nations, which have been unusually 

 poor, are improving both in color and 

 in size, and every one seems to be 

 needed. Boses are more satisfactory 

 now, but the variety is small. Indiana, 

 which is a good, pleasing rose, would 

 probably sell better if some fragrance 

 were attached to it. Taft roses in all 

 grades are better and sell quickly. My 

 Maryland, Killarney, White Killarney, 

 Bride and Bridesmaid are all good, but 

 the Killarneys seem to have unusually 

 short stems just at this season of the 

 year. Good sweet peas can hardly be 

 obtained, and the few that do reach the 

 market are quickly disposed of. Orchids 

 are extremely scarce. Lilies of the val- 

 ley are also scarce, but Harrisii lilies 

 are quite plentiful. "Wood ferns, Aspar- 

 agus plumosus, maidenhair and smilax 

 are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Ethel Phillips and Charles Gow 

 were visitors at the horse show at Co- 

 burg, Ont., last week. Mr. Gow com- 

 mences his vacation August 18. 



J. Michael Keller, of Mount Hope 

 avenue, leaves August 18 for a trip to 

 Panama. Nine Rochester members of 

 the Damascus temple, of which Mr. 

 Keller is one, will participate in the 

 work of conferring the degree. They 

 will go by rail to New Orleans and 

 thence by bt)at to Panama; upon re- 

 turning a stop will be made at Savan- 

 nah, Ga., and at Atlanta. 



Jacob Thomann and his son are plan- 

 ning to visitMinneapolis during the con- 

 vention week, and will make an exhibit 

 of their new Rochester White gladioli. 

 They hope to dispose of a large number 

 of bulbs, which are of fine quality. Their 

 stock is quite large. 



Joseph Werdein made a flying visit to 

 a small town in the southern part of the 

 state August 16 for the week end. 



Visitors this week include Mr. Bult- 

 man, of E. W. Edwards' florists' de-
