triennially. The late show has given 

 a big stimulus to orchid purchasing and 

 all the dealers disposed of large quan- 

 tities of plants. 



William Carr, formerly salesman for 

 the W. W. Edgar Co., who left Boa- 

 ton November 26, 1909, on a trip to 

 the Pacific coast, Panama, etc., re- 

 turned to Boston May 26, and after 

 his long peregrinations thinks the Hub 

 one of the best places he has struck. 



A. A. Pembroke, of Beverly, has a 

 fine iiouse of Spencer sweet peas, which 

 are netting him good money at C Park 

 street at present. 



"Welch Bros, did the biggest Memo- 

 rial week's business in their history. 

 As they anticipated, supplies were ade- 

 quate and, with the exception of red 

 ro^es and fancy carnations, quite mod- 

 erate in price. 



J. J. Casey, formerly of the Rosary, 

 has opened a new flower store on 

 Huntington avenue. 



James Wheeler has the framework 

 and ventilators of his big new house 

 at Natick about all in position and will 

 be ready for glazing in a day or two. 

 Mr. "Wheeler has lost a few pounds 

 avoirdupois of late and will hardly 

 come within the heavy weight class 

 at the coming club picnic. 



"William H. Elliott sold more roses 

 May 28 than on any day since he was 

 in business, the number approximat- 

 ing 100,000. 



The newly formed gladiolus society 

 got a good send-off May 27 and the 

 increasing interest in this flower should 

 draw many adherents to its ranks. Like 

 the peony society, it will have plenty 

 of work ahead in straightening out the 

 nomenclature. At the recent orchid 

 show John Lewis Childs had a nice 

 stand of gladioli. 



Peirce Bros., of "Waltham, had a 

 heavy cut of gladioli for Memorial 

 day, all of which they had no trouble 

 in cleaning out at good prices. They 

 also had a big lot of spiraeas and carna- 

 tions. _ ^ , ^ 



H. M. Robinson & Co. were kept on 

 the jump practically night and day for 

 a few days before Memorial day and 

 were more than satisfied with the vol- 

 ume of business transacted. • 



Peonies in this section never looked 

 better and a grand exhibition at Horti- 

 cultural hall, June 9 and 10, is cer- 



The baseball team of the Park Street 

 market expects to go to Madbury, N. 

 H., June 4, to play the employees m 

 "W. H. Elliott's rose houses.

 afternoon. The wholesale markets 

 cleaned up well Memorial day morning, 

 sales being brisk. 



The selection of Mechanics building 

 for the national S. A. F. flower show 

 in 1911 insures ample space for every- 

 one. A reduced rental of $4,900 for 

 one week has been secured. We think 

 this is as long as it will pay to run 

 even so large an exhibition in Boston, 

 unless it contains some extraordinary 

 attractions. W. N. Craig. 



The great popularity of Martin E. 

 Tuohy, the Broadway florist, is attest- 

 ed by the fact that the Tuohy Club, 

 a social organization of young men, 

 was named after him. It is stated 

 that at the club's annual dancing 

 party, held recently in Bethesda hall,
