The Florists' Review 



Avavam 2S, 1013. 



SPBmaFIELD, MASS. 



The Market. 



A slight improvement in trade con- 

 ditions gives promise of a busy autumn. 

 Asters seem to be the queen of the 

 market, for roses and carnations are 

 'scarce. Easter lilies are somewhat in 

 demand now. Mexican poppies, tri- 

 tomas and centaureas are finding favor 

 as cut flowers. Eoses still are high in 

 price and the blooms are small. Boston 

 ferns are coming into the market again, 

 but it will be September before great 

 quantities will arive and the price will 

 be away down. 



Various Notes. 



The fruit and flower show held 

 August 18 and 19 was a decided suc- 

 cess. This is the first time the Improve: 

 ment League and the Horticultural 

 Society have joined forces. The attend- 

 ance was good and there was a large 

 number of exhibitors in both flowers 

 and fruits. 



Miss Taylor, who resigned her posi- 

 tion with N. F. Higgins, begins new 

 duties with a Boston firm, September 1. 



William Schlatter is expected home 

 from his vacation in a few days. 



Osterman & Steele are showing some 

 fine Golden Glow chrysanthemums. It 

 looks good to see yellow mums again. 



Connie Hassell is enjoying his vaca- 

 tion, which will last two weeks. 



Mrs. Paul, of Chicopee, has been quite 

 busy with funeral work recently. 



The asters at the greenhouses of N. 

 F. Higgins are thriving nicely since the 

 installation of the Skinner system of 

 watering. His gladioli have been fine 

 this year. 



E. W. Cartter has begun to plant his 

 carnations indoors for early blooming. 



Mark Aitken and his family are 

 spending a short time at Black Point, 

 Conn.
