tention of all hands at Winterson's 

 Seed Store this week. 



Several large dinners and a heavy 

 demand for wedding bouquets has kept 

 Charles A. Johnson, 3205 West Fuller- 

 ton avenue, more than busy during the 

 last ten days. 



Visitors. — i 



C. B. Knickman was in town this 

 week, calling on the customers of Mc- 

 Hutchison & Co., on his way to New 

 York after a business trip to the Pa- 

 cific coast. 



Ernest Farley and Ted Vogel are 

 here from Minneapolis, where they re- 

 cently have been employed. 



Members of the Chicago trade en- 

 joyed a visit from William Tricker, of 

 water lily fame, Arlington, N. J., last 

 week, whose son is located at Western 

 Springs. 



Too much rain in Kentucky is the re- 

 port of C. C. Taylor, of the Kentucky 

 Tobacco Product Co., who was a visitor 

 on the Chicago market last week. 



Members of the Chicago trade were 

 visited last week by John G. Esler, 

 secretary of the Florists' Hail Associa- 

 tion, Saddle River, N. J. Mr. Esler 

 was on his way home from the Pacific 

 coast. 



EOCHESTEE, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Business has been fairly good dur- 

 ing the last week; in fact, for two or 

 three days it was booming on account 

 of an extra amount of funeral work. 

 Counter trade has been better, and 

 prospects all around are brighter. There 

 continues to be a large proportion of 

 outdoor stock on the market, which has 

 moved easily. Prices at this time are 

 quite low. The supply of American 

 Beauties is not large, but the daily 

 consignment of other varieties is quite 

 large. The intense heat of the last two 

 weeks has considerably hurt roses. 

 6weet peas are scarce. Carnations are 

 coming slowly; there is no particular 

 demand. Asters are fine and plenti- 

 ful, and are sold at extremely low 

 prices. There are large quantities of 

 gladioli on the market. Tuberoses are 

 arriving, but not in large quantities.

Zinnias, helianthus, tritomas, phlox and 

 Shasta daisies are all found useful in 

 basket work. There are plenty of 

 greens on the market, and the sale of 

 palms and ferns has been better. 



Various Notes. 



H. B. Stringer, of G. B. Hart's force, 

 has been confined to his home for the 

 last few days by sickness, but is im- 

 proving. 



Visitors last week included Harry 

 Bornhoft, of GuUett & Sons, Lincoln, 

 111., and W. P. Craig, of the E. Craig 

 Co., Philadelphia. 



Edwin C. Armbrust, formerly of S. 

 A. Anderson, Buffalo, has returned to 

 Rochester with his wife, and expects 

 to open a store in a few days at 279 

 East avenue. 



Frank Lavigne's pipe-frame green- 

 house, 17x58.6 feet, is well under way.
