 Sunday, September 12. The trip to 

 the grounds, in St. Louis county, vpas 

 made in automobiles. All had a pleas- 

 ant time until evening, when John 

 Bentzen was saved from drowning by 

 Frank Windier, while they were bath- 

 ing. Mr. Bentzen had gone down for 

 the second time when Mr. Windier 

 made a leap for him and saved him. 



The Lord & Burnham Co. has fifteen 

 men working overtime to finish the $75,- 

 000 conservatory for the Missouri 

 Botanical Garden, which, according to 

 the contract, must be completed Octo- 

 ber 1. W. W. Ohlweiler says that the 

 chrysanthemum show to be held in thei 

 new conservatory in November will be 

 the finest ever held at the garden. 

 Other flower shows will be held dur- 

 ing the winter months. 



The officers of the St. Louis Florists ' 

 Club spent a pleasant evening at the 

 home of President Jules Bourdet, Sep- 

 tember 16. This meeting was called in 

 order to draw plans for the coming 

 meetings of the club. Some valuable 

 suggestions were made as to how to 

 make the meetings interesting. It was 

 decided to hold a meeting of the offi- 

 cers prior to the monthly meeting of 

 the club. J. J. B.

The Market. 



Despite the intense heat last week, 

 business showed a slight improvement. 

 There was a better movement of flow- 

 ers of all kinds, although not half of 

 the stock that is received finds a sale. 

 Roses showed the effects of the terrific 

 heat, and of these the retailers bought 

 only in sufficient quantities to meet 

 immediate needs. Valley moved more 

 freely. Carnations are improving in 

 quality, but dahlias are not up to stand- 

 ard. There are still some gladioli to be 

 had. Asters are practically out of this 

 market. Tritomas and tuberoses are 

 to be had, but are not in de- 

 mand. The call for Easter lilies is 

 slackening; the supply is not as large 

 as it was some time ago. They con- 

 tinue to bring $6 and $8 per hundred. 

 Some exceptionally fine Golden Glow 

 chrysanthemums are being offered. 

 Northern-grown American Beauty roses 

 are being received in fine shape. 



Various Notes. 

 Alvin Burrows, 20 years of age, an 

 employee at the greenhouses of Fred 

 H. Kramer, in Anacostia, was drowned 

 last week, and Norman Padgett, 22 

 years of age, employed at the green- 

 houses of the Gude Bros. Co., had a 

 narrow escape from meeting a like
