DENVER. 



The Market 



The market the last two weeks has 

 been practically featureless. A visit 

 to the different stores invariably im- 

 pressed one with the scarcity of stock; 

 moat of that to be seen is not of first- 

 class quality. 



Brides and Maids of good quality are 

 scarce. Chatenay perhaps bears the best 

 flowers and stems. The white and pink 

 of other varieties are small of bud and 

 foliage. Mildewed Beauties are also 

 seen, most of the growers having thrown 

 them out, and it is almost impossible to 

 get many of long stems, although a few 

 good medium and short stems are seen. 

 Carnations, that is, good ones, manage 

 to bring a fair price, although most of 

 the stock has short stems and small 

 flowers. Asters are coming in now in 

 quantity and are taking the place of 

 carnations. Outdoor stock of all kinds 

 is arriving in good qualities. Sweet peas 

 are coming in large quantities and are 

 of good quality, but the price is low, 

 as many people have their back yards 

 full of them. The average price is 10 

 to 20 cents per hundred. Shasta daisies 

 are more satisfactory, and are of good 

 quality. Gladioli are also fine; choice 

 stock retails for $1 per dozen and makes 

 a fine window display.

parade was the throwing of flowers and 

 snowballs at the marchers as they passed 

 by, the snow coming from the Moffat 

 Bailroad Co., sixty miles from Denver, 

 and the flowers from the different 

 florists here. 



Miss Gertrude E. Page, secretary of 

 the Park Floral Co., has returned from 

 an extended vacation, via Chicago and 

 the lakes to New York and Boston. 



W. W. Wilmore, the dahlia specialist, 

 has returned from an extended trip, 

 visiting Philadelphia, Buffalo and his 

 old home. 



Quite a number of the florists are 

 going to Colorado Springs to attend 

 the EI Paso County Horticultural So- 

 ciety's show August 22 to 24. Some 

 are going as exhibitors and others as 

 judges. 



It is yet uncertain how many of the 

 craft will attend the convention at 

 Dayton. As yet none have engaged 

 transportation, but State Vice-president 

 J. A. Valentine never misses a meeting. 



George H. Cooper, with the Park 

 Floral Co., is away on vacation.

Urbana, O. — A severe hail storm swept 

 over this county July 27, causing thou- 

 sands of dollars damage to garden and 

 farm crops, many acres of sweet corn 

 and tomatoes being totally destroyed. 

 Hailstones the size of hen's eggs were 

 numerous, some even larger, being the 

 largest ever known to fall in this lo- 

 cality.
