ROCHESTER. 



The Market. 



"Remarkable" is the word applica- 

 ble to the weather last week, for it 

 was really remarkable for June. Though 

 the days were warm, there were cool 

 breezes and cool nights. This ideal 

 weather has made stock good and busi- 

 ness brisk. 



Roses are good in all grades. Killar- 

 ney and White Killarney are retailing 

 for $1.50 per dozen; Richmonds, $2.50 

 per dozen; Mrs. Aaron Ward, $2 per 

 dozen. Brides and Bridesmaids are 

 poor and retail for $1 per dozen. Kai- 

 serin Augusta has not made its appear- 

 ance in our market as yet, which we 

 much regret, for it is one of the best 

 summer roses. Special grades of Kil- 

 larney, Maryland and Richmond are 

 retailing for $2.50 per dozen. American 

 Beauties bring $4 to $6 per dozen. 

 Lilies of the valley are selling for 75 

 cents per dozen. Sweet peas are scarce 

 and bring about $1.25 per hundred. 

 Baby gladioli are coming in more plen- 

 tifully now and bring 50 cents per 

 dozen. Carnations are fair and still 

 run quite large, retailing at 50 cents 

 per dozen. 



Hardy ferns are quite scarce just 

 now. Rochester needs a man who would 

 deal in hardy ferns of good quality and 

 supply the market the year around. 

 There is a good opening for someone 

 in this line. Bedding plants are pretty 

 well sold out and few remain that are 

 •.at all good. Bedding plants have not 

 been "quite as good as in other years. 

 Summer trade is settling down grad-

Various Notes. 



J. J. Bates, of Akron, N. Y., visited 



local florists last week. He started in 

 business for himself a little over a 

 year ago. He put up a greenhouse and 

 has a store in connection with it, and 

 he reports that he is doing outdoor
