TORONTO. 



State of Trade. 



Trade during the last month has been 

 less than the former summer trade, on 

 account of the extremely hot weather, 

 which has driven every one out of town. 

 This hot spell also has had an injurious 

 effect upon the supply, as well as upon 

 the quality of cut flowers, and we now 

 find ourselves at the end of August with 

 poor stock of all principal varieties. A 

 few thunder storms have ruined outdoor 

 peas and asters, and the extreme heat 

 has made the indoor roses and carna- 

 tions small. About the only flower in 

 salable condition is the gladiolus. Near- 

 ly all our retail men report trade slow, 

 with the exception of a little funeral 

 work, and of course with that we find 

 them busy one day and nothing doing 

 the next. 



Varioui Notes. 



Several changes are noted in the flor- 

 ist business in Toronto. One of the 

 most noticeable is that A. C. Jennings, 

 who for the last few years has had 

 charge of the floral department of the 

 T. Eaton Co., has now left that firm 

 and rented a store in the Russell house 

 block. He has fitted up a first-class 

 flower store. It might also be noted in 

 this connection that there is a rumor 

 that the T. Eaton Co. is going out of the 

 flower business, as the room is wanted 

 for better paying departments. 



D. J. Sinclair has opened a branch at 

 518 St. James street, Montreal. Mr. 

 Grey, late of Philadelphia, will be in 

 charge.

tion arrived in Toronto Monday morn- 

 ing. The special rate given by the rail- 

 ways to the exhibition is a very material 

 factor in bringing the delegates from 

 the east and west, where the long dis- 

 tance makes it an expensive trip at reg- 

 ular rates. The convention promises to 

 be exceptionally successful this year, if 

 attendance counts for anything.

OBITUARY. 



John A. Vo£eI. 



John A. Vogel, 82 years old, was 

 found dead in his bed, August 10, at 

 2114 Cambridge street, Baltimore. Mr. 

 Vogel at one time conducted a store on 

 Eastern avenue extended. During the 

 last few years he had been unable to 

 manage a store, and had earned a living 

 by taking care of flower gardens for 

 several residents of the eastern part of 

 the city. 



Born in Germany, Mr. Vogel came to 

 this country about thirty years ago. Ten 

 years later his wife died, and although 

 he had several children at that time 

 who solicited him to make his home with 

 them, he refused, preferring to live 

 alone.

 on, and tuberoses are looking better.. 

 Trade has been good.
