men averaging the highest scores in

 a spirited contest is looked for. 



Various Notes, 



Frank Eitzenthaler, of Knoble Bros., 

 is on the sick list. 



George W. Smith, of the Cleveland 

 Florists' Exchange, has returned from 

 the west. He, with Mrs. Smith, 

 stopped at Colorado on the return trip 

 from the convention. 



The new store of the Jones-Kussell 

 Co. is nearing completion. This com- 

 pany, together with MacDiarmid, the 

 candy man, will open a neyr store in 

 the Hippodrome building.

The Market, 



The hot weather last week had a de- 

 pressing influence on business. Grow- 

 ers complained that many flowers were 

 spoiled by the sudden change in the 

 weather. The heat made it hard to 

 keep a good supply of flowers in the 

 stores, and compelled buyers to be more 

 careful. 



Last week carnations were much 

 more in evidence. The blooms coming 

 into the market, however, are generally 

 of a poor quality and sell at from 50 

 to 60 cents per dozen. While some 

 excellent dahlias arrived last week, the 

 dahlia market this year, as a whole, 

 has been poor. The quality of dahlias 

 has not averaged high, and the prices 

 have been low. Asters are still hold- 

 ing their own, and large quantities are 

 being disposed of, but the prices are 

 low. Many gladioli are seen, but not 

 in the numbers they have been. The 

 quality is deteriorating. Some good 

 Easter lilies are coming into the mar- 

 ket, and valley is keeping up well. 

 Roses are fair in quality for this time 

 of the year, and are arriving in suf- 

 ficient quantities to supply the trade. 

 Chrysanthemums are beginning to ap- 

 pear on the market. There have been 

 a few Goltlen Glows for several weeks, 

 but now other varieties are beginning 

 to appear. They are not plentiful, how- 

 ever, and are not of good quality. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Fred P. Wolfinger 

 have returned from their visit to the 

 Panama-Pacific exposition, at San Fran- 

 cisco. Mr. Wolfinger says business is 

 good, there being much funeral and 

 wedding work. The summer business, 

 taken as a whole, exceeds that of last 

 summer. 



Mr. and Mrs. John Crossley have re- 

 turned from their vacation, which they 

 spent at Atlantic Highlands, on the 

 New Jersey coast. Business is reported 

 quiet, outside of funeral work, of which 

 ■ tbtVB has been much. 



Charles WitherldgW states that busi- 

 ness is quiet. He has had some fu- 

 neral orders.
