turned as German peasant girls. Some 

 fine red gladioli were on sale here. 



Gftorge Cook had some good potted 

 geraniums and rose plants, which moved 

 well. 



James Hamilton and Isaac H. Moss 

 both had large displays of bay, trees, 

 conifers and other nursery stock, which 

 were worthy of mention. 



Nearly all the exhibitors had sample 

 window boxes on display, some of which 

 found a ready sale, others serving to 

 show how well filled boxes of this style 

 could be used in decorating. Many or- 

 ders were secured from this arrange- 

 ment. The affair was a most successful 

 one and is assured of a greater future. 

 The enterprise is a commendable one . 

 and should be made a fixed aflEair, the = 

 same as fall or spring trade exhibitions, 

 for nothing promotes the trade any bet- 

 ter than a well arranged display of cut 

 flowers and plants where the public may , 

 view it, especially if there is no charge; 

 for so doing.

The Market. 



The market during the last week has 

 been rather unstable, at least as far as 

 cut flowers are concerned. Carnations 

 during the latter part Of the week were 

 scarce, but the quality was good. Boses 

 are not plentiful, and snapdragons are 

 playing out. Sweet peas continue to 

 come in liberal quantities. The weather 

 has been cool, and a deluge of rain fell
