The Market 



We are in the midst of the idle sea- 

 son and many df the retailers are tak- 

 ing their vacations; those who remain 

 are trying to make themselves as com- 

 fortable as possible, but I believe the 

 worst is over. There is more stock of 

 all kinds coming in and, while carna- 

 tions are about down and out, asters 

 are here in quantity and quality. Glad- 

 ioli and lilies are abundant and roses 

 are gradually improving. Beauties arc 

 small but fine for July. Up to date 

 most of the stores are holding their own 

 with other years, while the wholesalers 

 are ahead of other seasons up to this 

 time. 



Vaiioui Notes. 



The committee on transportation to 

 the S. A. F. convention has arranged a 

 very interesting and inexpensive itin- 

 erary and would like to make up a good- 

 size party. They invite any friends 

 interested outside of the club to join 

 the party. At present those who have 

 arranged to attend are Fred Burki, E. 

 C. Reineman and family, Jos. Thomas, 

 of Greensburg; J. W. Ludwig and wife, 

 E. C. Ludwig and family, Gustav Lud- 

 wig and family, H. L. Blind and How- 

 ard Carney.

 adding two new carnation houses which 

 are about completed. 



Miss Lilly Geib, stenographer of the 

 Cut Flower Co., is again at her post 

 after a two weeks' vacation in the 

 wilds of Blairsville, Pa. T. P. Lang- 

 hans, secretary of the same firm, has 

 taken his family to Chautauqua, but ex- 

 pects to spend a few days fishing in 

 Canada. 



Howard Carney, of J. B. Murdoch & 

 Co., is a member of the crack volunteer 

 hose company of the United States. 

 The}' broke the time record in their 

 last competition. 



John Bader and H. L. Blind have re- 

 turned from New York and Philadel- 

 phia, where they spent part of last 

 week. 



L. L Neff is making many improve- 

 ments at his Cheswick place, and stock 

 there is looking very fine. They have 

 just commenced planting carnations. 



The S. A. F. Convention is close 

 at hand and everyone is inter- 

 ested in Icnowing all about 



What You Will Show

 them about it in the next 

 issue of

 tendance of members w.as large; in fact,

was decorated with a vase of Centaurea 

 imperialis, a charming hardy annual; a 

 collection of Japanese iris, large and in 

 various colors; Elseagnus longipes in 

 fruit; a dish of potatoes, Firstling, a 

 very early potato of good size and 

 shape, and clusters of Stirling Castle 

 tomato, without doubt a grand table 

 tomato, of perfect shape and color and 

 a free setter. 



The chief business of the evening was 

 the launching of a schedule for a flower 

 show to be held in Glen Cove in the 

 beginning of November. J. F. J.
