BAIjTIMOBE. 



The Market. 

 Business is up to the average for this 

 season of the year. Stock, other than 

 Killarney roses, is none too plentiful 

 and fair prices are being realized. Beau- 

 ties are in better supply and are find- 

 ing a fair market. Dahlias are about 

 at their best and are selling well. The 

 war scare on valley suddenly passed 

 over and a good grade of stock is now 

 to be had for $4 per hundred — a drop 

 of $1 under the former price. White 

 and medium-grade pink roses are in 

 short supply; so, also, are lilies, for 

 which there is a good demand, with the 

 prices continuing to hold up well. Car- 

 nations are still poor. Mums are in 

 good demand at good prices, with only 

 a little local stock to be had. Smilaz is 

 to be had in any quantity and meets 

 with a poor sale even at low prices. 

 Asparagus is being taken up better, 

 with plenty in sight for immediate de- 

 mands. Single violets made their ap- 

 pearance in the local stores during the 

 week, but ftre not selling well as yet; 

 neither are they of really good quality. 



Various Notes. 



B. G. Merritt is sending some fine 

 Beauties to the Pennock-Meehan Co. 



Chas. L. Seybold, formerly superin- 

 tendent of public parks in this city, 

 but now of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., was a 

 visitor here last week, renewing old 

 acquaintances. 



On Monday night, September 28, the 

 outside temperature in this locality 

 dr<^ped to 36 degrees and some of the 

 growers felt rather worried about stock 

 which had not yet been brought inside. 

 At Vincent's dahlia farm a number of 

 spots were blackened by frost, but an 

 exceptionally heavy dew saved the 

 stock from destruction. Coming on the 

 eve of the firm's annual show, such de- 

 struction would have been doubly se- 

 rious. 



The show committee of the Maryland 

 Horticultural Society held its prelim- 

 inary meeting at the office of William 

 Feast, October 2. Matters pertaining to 

 the exhibition to be held at the Fifth 

 Regiment armory, November 17 to 21, 

 were discussed and it was decided to 

 hold another committee meeting in the 

 near future, when plans will be formu- 

 lated and further arrangements made. 



This week 's obituary column contains 

 a report of the death, by suicide, of 

 Jesse Bell, who was employed in the 

 greenhouses of William Fraser, at Rider, 

 Md. W, F. E.
