 from growers we know to produce and ship nothing but the best. At the same time, oar outlet is so large we can make quick sale for all growers

EVERY GROWER NEEDS 

 WHITE KILLARNEY, Waban Variety 



A sport from the Pink Killamey, and identical in form and habit, 

 difiFering only in its pure white color. It has been carefully grown 

 and only the very best wood selected for propagating; the result is 

 seen in the remarkable vigor of our growers' plants.

ONCaNNATL 



The Market 



Last week brought no new develop- 

 ments, so far as the cut flower market 

 was concerned. There was just about 

 enough demand to clean out the receipts, 

 but there were plenty of cheap roses on 

 the market and there was little improve- 

 ment in the prices obtained even for the 

 best. Carnations fared a trifle better 

 and the average price shows an increase ; 

 still, when compared with last year it is 

 not especially encouraging. Violets con- 

 tinue to hold their own and to bring 

 a good price. As is usual in this mar- 

 ket, the single ones take the lead. Poin- 

 settias are on hand and they are fine. 

 This flower always has its place in the 

 holiday season and it is selling about 

 the same as usual. With the possible ex- 

 ception of calla and Harrisii lilies, there 

 are not so many bulbous flowers for 

 the holidays. George & Allan, who in the 

 past have fol'ced such large quantities 

 of this class of stock, have cut away 

 down on the numbers they are forcing 

 this year. They will have fine valley and 

 narcissi and will get a good price for 

 what they have. 



The market is full of holly, but the 

 quality is below par. This is not the 

 case with all of it, of course, but wlien 

 buying you have to be onto your job 

 if you don't want to get stung. 



Varioiit Notes. 



Prom all reports Park Superintendent 

 J. W. Rodgers has received a pretty fine 

 Christmas present in the way of a raise 

 in his salary of $1,000 per year. It is 

 presumed that with the greater activity 

 in the way of park improvement in this 

 city he will be kept still more closely 

 to his work and the new park commission 

 deemed it worth the extra money. 



George Durban has opened a store at 

 Hamilton avenue and Knowlton street, 

 Cumminsville, under the name of the 

 North Side Floral Bazaar. This is in 

 the center of the business district in 

 Cumminsville and it would look as if 

 there was a chance there for a retail 

 store to succeed. 



E, J. Fancourt, of the Pennock-Meehan 

 Co., Philadelphia, was a caller.

WHITE KILLARNEY : MY MXRYLAND 



After careful investlKatioD. having become satisfied that the Waban Strain of Wblta 

 KlUamey is superior to anything now in the market, we have withdrawn our Sport and 

 will not propagate it at all. We have made arrangements with the Waban Rose Conservator- 

 ies to procure an abundant supply of their stock and will propagate only from that. This 

 we offer for delivery after Feb. 15, 1909, at the following prices :
