The Fbrists' Review 



July 30, 1914. 



HARTFOED, CONN. 



The Market. 



Business has been quiet of late, about 

 the average summer trade, just a little 

 funeral work. Roses and sweet peas 

 are about the only flowers in the mar- 

 ket at present. Owing to the cool and 

 wet summer, the outdoor sweet peas 

 are of better quality and are holding 

 on longer than usual. 



Various Notes.

 Flower Shop, spent a week in camp at 

 Niantic.

 selves of the opportunity to visit our 

 state agricultural college.

 ment store to the extent of establishing
