 From Madlfcy, N. H., tBe Mrs. A»on 



fards and'Killameys were noteworthy, 

 r. Hutson, the head salesman, reported 

 business as satisfactory 

 ^ Malcolm Orr, of Saugus," who has been 

 n>ecializing in sweet peas, had also 

 candytuft and stocks in quantity for 

 Memorial day. 



George W. Ayer, of Kcadirfg, has had 

 good success with his sweet peas this 

 season. He also hit it right with a big

Samuel Gidley, of Waltham, has a

 at the stores. 



William Nicholson, of Framingham,

 double feverfew and marguerites. He 

 had a heavy local trade.

 large-flowered type, and marguerites for 

 Memorial day, and reports a good in-

A. L. Silloway, of Maynard, hit it 

 right with a big crop of double fever-
