may be a point in their culture and 

 accounts for their earliness and fine con- 

 dition. If any one needs to study the 

 bench question, he will find every kind 

 on this place, as well as the most up- 

 to-date methods of growing flowers. 

 There is a bed of Adiantum Croweanum, 

 1,000 plants, which look about as good 

 as if they were in Utica, and that is say- 

 ing enough. Mr. Myers in his municipal 

 capacity has already discovered at- 

 tempted "graft" and nobly frustrated 

 it. I always knew if there was more 

 of the horticultural craft in our city 

 government there would be less to com- 

 plain of. Of course, many a florist has 

 his price, but they come higher than 

 the ordinary tradesmen. 



We regret for our sake that on July 

 1 Henry "Wise gives up his share of the 

 firm of Wise Bros., of East Aurora, 

 N. Y., and takes charge of the estab- 

 lishment of W. F. Kasting, at Erie, Pa. 

 Mr. Kasting is fortunate. If ability, 

 integrity and close application to busi- 

 ness lead to success he has all embodied 

 in Henry Wise. He has lived so long 

 a neighbor to the sage of East Aurora, 

 Elbert Hubbard, that he must have ab- 

 sorbed a lot of brilliancv. 



The King Construction Co., of Tona- 

 wanda, is erecting two houses, each 

 ^2x100, for Mr. Newman, of Akron, N. 

 y-, _ who is going into the commercial 

 business. The dry spell is broken and 

 ^e are having this Sabbath day a most 

 beautiful rain. *W. S.

PITTSBURG. 



The Market 



Richmond, Ind.— The now range of 

 y>o K. O. Hill Co. is going up rapidly, 

 't IS expected to have the houses finished 

 Jind planted by August 1. 



The regular June business is the order 

 of the day. A number of weddings and 

 commencements called for more good 

 stock than was to be obtained, but there 

 were quantities of rubbish for the 

 garbage man. The few cold days we 

 have just had have improved the roses 

 a great deal. Sweet peas are still plenti- 

 ful, but many of them are soft and have 

 no value. The Pittsburg Cut Fower 

 Co. is otfering storage peonies, which 

 came in good play last week for the 

 large decorations, as lilies and other 

 large flowers were very scarce. There 

 are some gladioli in evidence, but noth- 

 ing fine. We wonder why a sane man 

 will buy cheap varieties to force, when 

 the same expense will grow good varie- 

 ties and bring more than twice as much 

 money. Most of the rose growers have 

 part of their stock benched and are 

 just waiting for the trade to let down 

 a little to clean out the balance and 

 finish planting.

We have had a number of storms with 

 heavy hail all around us. but in some

 ngo has resulted. 



The plantsmen who have been in the 

 imhit of covering the sidewalks opposite 

 the market, have been notified to gather 

 in their stock and confine themselves 

 to their stands on the street. This is 

 not much of a hardship, as they are 

 about through for the year.
