"i the Joseph Heacock Co. September 

 ^- Killarney as red as Eichmond were 

 nis first roses. 



J- J. Habermehl's Sous comment on 

 the lack of a fine white rose for sum- 

 •'ler. Fortunately there is one in sight 

 under number. 



Saturday, September 6, was a record 

 breaker, reports the M. Eice Co. The 

 largest batch of orders of the season 

 was received from the men on the road, 

 »ne of them for over $3,000, which gives 

 some idea to what magnitude the flo- 

 '■'"ts' supply business has grown. That 



day 150 cases of baskets just received 

 on the S. S. Graf Waldersee were being 

 unpacked. Phil. 



BOSTON. 



The Market. 



There is rather more activity in the 

 <;ut flower trade. This is less apparent 

 in wholesale than in retail circles, how- 

 ever, and prices have not yet had any 

 fillip. Society people now linger quite 

 late at the seashore an^ mountains and 



it will be some weeks yet before real 

 activity will prevail. 



Short-stemmed roses are a veritable 

 glut, and even at $5 per thousand large 

 numbers cannot be moved. Ward, Kil- 

 larney Queen, Eussell and Cardinal are 

 popular varieties. A few short- 

 stemmed, new-crop carnations are seen, 

 as well as small pickings from the old 

 crop, but neither kind of stock cuts 

 much figure. Chrysanthemums are get- 

 ting plentiful. Golden Glow is abun- 

 dant. There are also smaller lots of 

 Mme. Bergmann and Smith's Advance.
