the first single violets of the season in 

 the local markets. 



B. F. Latson and Miss Harriet E. 

 Milk, both popular employees at Philip 

 L. Carbone's Boylston street store, were 

 married at 77 Harvard avenue, Dorches- 

 ter, September 20. 



W. F. Aylward is handling extra fine 

 Christmas peppers at the Park Street 

 market from H. L. Forbes, of Milton, 

 the grower being Otto Bender. 



The Red Star liner, Manitou, from 

 Antwerp, which landed in Boston last 

 week, had among other cargo 2,976 

 packages or cases of bulbs or plants, 

 mostly for Boston firms. The demand 

 for bulbs this season for outdoor plant- 

 ing promises to pass all records. 



John K. M. L. Farquhar arrived safe- 

 ly home from his extended European 

 trip this week and was tendered a com- 

 plimentary banquet at the Parker house, 

 September 29. J. A. Pettigrew, W. J. 

 Stewart and Duncan Finlayson had 

 charge of the arrangements. 



The average daily temperature for the 

 late three summer months was 70.3, a 

 little over the normal. The rainfall was 

 8.97 inches, about three inches below the 

 average. Much of it came in heavy 

 showers, widely scattered. The last few 

 days have added somewhat to the precipi- 

 tation, however. 



A. G. Lake, at Wellesley Hills, is one 

 of the local growers who still has faith 

 in Fair Maid carnation. He has some 

 thousands of it in fine shape. Other 

 sorts grown are Enchantress and its rose 

 and white sports, Fenn, White Perfec- 

 tion, Queen and Lawson. He has 18,000 

 plants benched altogether. Outdoors he 

 grows 70,000 asters W. X. Craig. 



ST. LOUIS. 



The Market 



With cooler weather business has im- 

 proved a great deal. There is no great 

 rush to report, but everybody is buying 

 more stock. They say that since they 

 have made more window displays the 

 sales have increased. The retailers expect

some good business during Centennial 

 week, which starts the first of next week. 

 There are also quite a few large wed- 

 dings booked for early in October by 

 some of the west end florists. 



Stock at the wholesale houses Monday, 

 September 27, was light and the trade 

 was having a hard time to get enough 

 stock to fill orders. Last week Beauties 

 were plentiful in all grades, as well as 

 other roses, especially Bride and Maid. 

 The quality is becoming better every day. 

 Carnations are also looking better, but 

 are not overplentiful at the present time. 

 Lily of the valley is good and sells well. 

 Asters are about over and mums are com- 

 ing in. All outdoor stock is fast dimin- 

 ishing. Violets are too pale to sell at 

 any fair price, but will soon be dividing
