The Market. 



The week has been a good one in that 

 it saw the break of the prolonged 

 drought. Tuesday, June 16, we had a 

 general rain of over an inch and a half, 

 and we have had two good showers 

 since. The most noticeable change is in 

 the appearance of the outdoor roses and 

 the parks. They have changed for the 

 better as if by magic. 



There is no great supply of cut flow- 

 ers of any kind, but there are plenty for 

 the, dull summer trade. The excessive 

 heat has driven many people away from 

 the city earlier than usual. There is 

 little demand except for funeral work, 

 now that the last of the commencements 

 are over. Taking it as a whole, the 

 season closing has been one of the most 

 successful we have had here. Roses are 

 pretty good at present, while carnations 

 are practically gone. Sweet peas are 

 scarce and the quality is not good. The 

 bedding plants the city over have suf- 

 fered badly, and there is little bloom on 

 any except some of the geraniums. 

 Shrubbery has done well, and there has 

 been little loss from spring-set trees. 



The seed trade has had a revival since 

 the rain, there being a good demand for 

 field seeds and tomato and sweet potato 

 plants. Much of the small garden stuff 

 will be replanted. 



Various Notes. 



The Hillcrest School Farm is plan- 

 ning to put in a private water plant at 

 once. The water will be pumped from 

 White's creek to the top of the hill, 

 where gravity will give suflScient pres- 

 sure on all parts of the farm. They 

 have finished planting dahlias. They 

 say that gladioli never looked so badly 

 at this season. 



J. K. Postma, one of the employees at 

 Lischey 's Gardens, has invented a new 

 fumigator for using nicotine in its va- 

 rious forms. Mr. Browne says that it 

 is the best thing that he has ever seen 

 for the purpose. It is understood that 

 Mr. Postma has applied for a patent and 

 will put the device on the market in the 

 near future.

first year in the florists' business in 

 Nashville, is planning on enlarging his 

 plant this summer. 



The florists' association for this city 

 seems to be an assured fact. It will be 

 a factor that has been needed here for 

 a long time. There is a move on foot 



for a state association as well and the 

 wide-awake florists should not rest till 

 this is an accomplished fact. When the 

 men of any business look one another in 

 the face and discuss their eommon prob- 

 lems there is always better feeling on 

 the part of all. P. B.
