Low Junior. It produces large, luscious 

 fruits, about an inch and a half in 

 length, lacking the seeds of the black- 

 berry and the acid flavor of the logan- 

 berry. It is jet black. There is a con- 

 siderable run upon the stock for autumn 

 delivery. _ Bee. 



BOSTON. 



The Market 



No great change has taken place in 

 market conditions, nor is any probable 

 for a few more weeks. There are less 

 flowers arriving, especially of carnations. 

 These latter are now hardly worth pur- 

 chasing, but their place is well taken 

 by asters, which are now coming in 

 abundantly and of fine quality. Tor 

 funeral work they are much superior to 

 the under-sized carnations. Bemaining 

 sweet peas have been helped by late raflis, 

 but are not plentiful. Kaiserin, Car- 

 not and Killamey roses are about the 

 only ones seen. The last named is far 

 the most popular of pink roses and is 

 being used a great deal for funeral 

 work. Dahlias are already seen in small 

 lots, but these have never been popular 

 as a cut flower in Boston. Of really 

 choice flowers there is a decided scar- 

 city. Cattleyas and gardenias are few. 

 Of valley there is a fair supply, while a 

 little Bouvardia Humboldtii is seen. 

 Quite a few speciosum lilies are coming 

 in, chiefly the colored forms. Gladioli 

 are now quite good and there is the 

 usual assortment of outdoor flowers. 



Variotis Notes. 



Only fine weather is wanted to make 

 the picnic of the Grardeners' and Flo- 

 rists' Club at Pine Banks park. Maiden, 

 July 29, a great success. Prizes have 

 been donated by the following firms and 

 individuals, among others: A. H. Hews 

 & Co., Lord & Bumham Co., Boston 

 Plate Glass Co., Houghton & Clark, W. 

 W. Bawson & Co., E. & J. Farquhar & 

 Co., Schlegel & Fottler Co., Stumpp & 

 Walter Co., J. Breck & Sons, H. E. 

 Fiske Co., T. J. Grey Co., William Sim, 

 Edward Hatch, T. H. Westwood, Peter 

 Fisher, S. J. Goddard, Alex. Montgom- 

 ery, Wilfrid Wheeler, W. N. Craig, New 

 England Nurseries, Daniel Hiflfe, F. E. 

 Palmer, WUliam McLaughlin, D. Finlay- 

 son, William Downs, H. M. Bobinson 

 & Co. and P. Feinstein. 



F. E. Palmer, state vice-president of 

 the S. A. F., is working hard for a good 

 delegation from Boston and vicinity to 

 the Niagara Falls convention. It is 

 hoped to get favorable railroad rates and 

 that a good crowd will represent the 

 club. 



A club field day will be held at the 

 Massachusetts Agricultural College, Am- 

 herst, August 14, in addition to the 

 one at the New England Nurseries Sep- 

 tember 5. 



Considerable damage was done to the 

 office and packing-sheds of the Bay State 

 Nurseries by the severe thunder storm 

 July 18. 



A. Leuthy is just completing work on 

 a new 150-foot house. Daniel Iliffe 

 furnished most of the material. 



J. B. Velie, the local representative 

 of Lord & Burnham Co., states that their 

 business in New England this year will 

 equal that of 1907 to date, although 

 in other sections of the country it will 

 show a decrease. 



A fall of 1.65 inches of rain July 25 

 effectually ended our prolonged drought.
