Geo. M. Kellogg, of Pleasant Hill, Mo., 

 was in town Sunday on his way to Dal- 

 las, Texas. Mr. Kellogg hopes for a big 

 delegation from here to the S. A. F. 

 convention. He says the glut in cut 

 stock is also on in Kansas City, but is 

 not in favor of the cheap prices. 



The Florists' Club will give its annual 

 picnic some time during July. Frank 

 Fillmore and Fred Ammann have been 

 added to the committee of arrangements. 

 This year's outing should be a large 

 one, as we had nono list summer. 



Bowline. 



The bowling club had seven men at 

 the alleys on Monday. Five games were 

 rolled, in which C. A. Kuehn was high 

 with 830; Beneke, second, 819; Miller, 

 811; Ellis, 802; R. Meinhardt, 728; F. 

 Meinhardt, 653; Henry Lohrenz, 632. 

 The highest single score was by Kuehn, 

 212; Ellis, second, 198. 



Mr. Hippard, of De Soto, was in town 

 on Monday. He is quite a bowler and 

 has invited the boys down. Mr. Hip- 

 pard says they will have a good time. 

 Mr. Frost and himself will see to the 

 entettainraent. The visit will be made 

 soon but not until the busy planting 

 season is over. J. J. B.

The Market 



Very little change has taken place in 

 the market during the past week. Roses 

 continue pletitiful enough for all require- 

 ments. Some nice Carnot and Kaiserin 

 are now coming in. Carnations are 

 abundant and the quality holds remark- 

 ably well. While a few select blooms 

 bring up to $2.50 and $3, very good 

 stock can be had at $1, or even less. Some 

 double violets from O. L. Dorr still come 

 in and- of very fair quality. Sweet 

 peas remain good sellers and are a little 

 lower, the best bringing 75 cetits to $1 

 per hundred. Lilies and callas are in 

 oversupply and very little call for them. 

 The supply of outdoor bulbous stock is 

 lessening, the Trumpet narcissi being 

 over. N. poeticus is quite abundant. 

 Bunches of the later tulips of good qual- 



ity are seen and there is a good supply 

 of Spanish iris. Adiantum is more plenti- 

 ful. Asparagus remains about the same. 



Varioos Notes. 



Dr. R. T. Jackson, of Cambridge, read 

 an exhaustive essay on "Peonies and 

 Their Culture" at the meeting of thfl 

 Gardeners' and Florists' Club on Tues- 

 day, May 16. There was an exceptionally 

 good attendance and keen inteTest was 

 manifested in Dr. Jackson's remarks. A 

 number of new members were elected and 

 indications are that a membership of 200 

 will be reached by the end of the year. 

 A more extended report will appear in 

 next week's Rbtview. 



Quite a serious drought has been ex- 

 perienced in New England of late. Very 

 little rain has fallen this spring and a 

 part of the three inches of precipitation 

 which drenched Chicago a iew days ago 

 would have been welcomed here. One or 

 two light showers have relieved the situ- 

 ation a little, but a soaking rain is badly 

 needed. 



The Arnold Arboretum is particularly 

 attractive at present. The pyruses are 

 very fine. At the end of the week the 

 grand collection of lilacs will be at their 

 best. The parkways under Superintend- 

 ent Pettigrew's charge are also wonder-
