cut flowers were donated by the whole- 

 salers and retailers, which brought big 

 prices. The wealthy society ladies had 

 booths all over the garden. 



The preliminary list for the St. Louis 

 Horticultural Society's fall flower show 

 has been issued. It carries the usual 

 Shaw premiums, amounting to .$500, in- 

 cluding the Henry Shaw gold medal. 

 The other premiums for chrysanthemums, 

 carnations, roses and floral designs 

 amount to $1,036, making a total of 

 $1,536 for premiums for the show.

The Market. 



"We are unable to speak enthusiastic- 

 ally of the market at present. Weather 

 has remained unseasonably cold, with 

 much of it damp and dark, but far more 

 material has arrived than was needed. 

 Probably v-armer and brighter weather 

 might stimulate purchases, but the close 

 approach of 'Memorial day will tend to 

 brace up prices, temporarily at least. 

 Boses are in abundant supply and many 

 have to be cleared at quite low figures. 

 Carnations vary from $1 to $3 per hun- 

 (ire'd, a few fancies going higher. A few 

 double violets are still arriving of good 

 quality for. the sea.son. Sweet peas are 

 in heavy supply> but are good selling 

 flowers. The colors are right. Bulbous 

 stock is again overabundant, a lot of 

 outdoor stock being now available in 

 tulips and narcissi. Spanish iris is of 

 good quality and sells fairly well. Gladi- 

 oli are quite abundant. There are the 

 usual quantities of marguerites, antir- 

 rhinums and other flowers. 



Green stock is of good quality, with 

 little change except in the case of hardy 

 green ferns, which are arriving much 

 better. 



Visit to General Weld. 



On invitation of General S. M. Weld, 

 president of the Massachusetts Horti- 

 cultural Society, members of the trustee 

 board, past and present, visited and were 

 entertained by him May 11. The mem- 

 bers of the party left the south station 

 at 11:48 and on arrival at Dedham were 

 taken in carriages to General Weld's 

 home. A regular business meeting of 

 the board was first held and among other
