 perchance, the ground is frozen over be- 

 fore you receive them, bury them out- 

 doors until the ground becomes open.

What we need just now is rain, and 

 lots of it. Lawns are burning up for 

 want of water and everything in the gar- 

 dens is looking limpy. Carnations will 

 not last much longer; a week or so will 

 eee the end of them. They are now sell- 

 ing at low prices. Saturday is bargain 

 day, and they go at 20 cents per dozen, 

 retail, in some stores, while the fakers 

 sell them at 10 cents a dozen.' 



Sweet peas are abundant, but the dry 

 weather is not favorable to their growth. 

 They are selling all the way from 10 

 cents to 20 cents per hundred, retail. 



Davenport & Son is the sign on the 

 window of the store formerly run by H. 

 A. Jahn in the Five-cent Savings Bank 

 building. Mr. Jahn will devote all his 

 time to greenhouses on Clark's Point, 

 selling direct to his customers. 



Carnations in the field are looking 

 well, although not quite as large as uanal 

 at this time of the year. 



Most of the uptown stores close early 

 evenings now, as there is not much busi- 

 ness. 



Wm. Livesey is building a greenhouse 

 22x65 and is putting a new roof on his 

 lean-to sixty-five feet long on the south 

 side of his greenhouse. Geraniums are 

 all planted out in the field. This has 

 been a good year for the sale of bedding 

 stock. 



Aster Queen of the Market will soon 

 be in bloom to take the place of carna- 

 tions. 



Old home week comes in the last week 

 of August. All mills and factories are 

 to shut down. This will be a big car- 

 nival week here. There will be a flower 

 show in Odd Fellows' hall during the 

 iveek. W. L.

 ports that trade is considerably better 

 than last year.
