The Market. 



September is usually the month for 

 the home-coming of flower buyers and it 

 is hoped the prophecies of a busy season 

 will be fulfilled. Up to date there has 

 been nothing of great importance going 

 on, but the market is assuming a more 

 healthy condition. October's outlook is 

 very bright for weddings, judging from 

 orders now on hand. Tea roses are be- 

 coming more plentiful, with the usual 

 low prices for early fall. Beauties are 

 not plentiful and command fair prices. 

 Indoor carnations can be had in almost 

 any quantity, with from $1 to $2 for 

 choice. Asters and dahlias predominate 

 and are sold at prices satisfactory to the 

 grower. 



Various Notes. 



At a meeting of the Florists' Club 

 September 11, officers for the ensuing 

 year were nominated. The election Will 

 take place September 25. It is earnestly 

 requested that all members attend, as 

 there will be something doing on this oc- 

 casion. 



A ride through the system of parks is 

 very enjoyable, to see the large beds of 

 cannas, geraniums, begonias and coleus, 

 all having the best possible care and at- 

 tention. The cannas particularly are a 

 grand sight. Their briUiant array of 

 color and massive foliage are very strik- 

 ing. The beds in the public square are 

 at their prime. Carpet bedding, ancient 

 as it may seem, has a very pleasing and 

 decorative effect when used properly. 

 The various designs and badges of the 

 G. A. B. and the D. A. R. are effectively 

 laid out and true to color scheme. Alter- 

 nantheras, santolinas, alyssums, lobelias, 

 echeverias and sedums are used. Credit 

 is due the gardener who executed these 

 designs. 



Lakeview cemetery is a most beautiful 

 spot to visit at this season of the year. 

 Trees, shrubs and flower beds present a 

 pretty aspect. Beds of hardy hydran- 

 geas are simply immense; flower heads, 

 enormous in size, with the dark green 

 surroundings, are a pleasure to look 

 upon. A bed of Vernon begonia is one 

 mass of flowers and shows what a fine 

 thing it is when used properly.

Here is another dollar for the Review. 

 It is a very good paper and we could not 

 very well get along without it. — Adgate
