The Market. 



Business here is fair. Flowers are 

 quite plentiful. Asters are still the 

 main stock. Not many carnations are 

 to be seen as yet; what few come in 

 retail at 35 cents per dozen. Asters 

 retail at 35 cents and 50 cents per 

 dozen. Sweet peas are all gone. Some 

 fine gladioli are to be seen in the store 

 windows; they retail at $1 per dozen. 

 Outdoor flowers are now plentiful. 

 Dahlias are looking fine; some handsome 

 flowers are being cut. Rosea retail at 

 from $1.50 per dozen upward. 



We have had no frosts so far, and 

 everything outdoors is looking fine now, 

 after having one or two copious rains. 



Carnation plants are about all housed. 

 They are fairly good plants. 



Funeral work is good. 



Various Note*. 



J. H. Cleary had a nice window of 

 gladioli last week. He also had a nice 

 assortment of asters. 



Wm. P. Peirce's window was attract- 

 ively decorated with palms and ferns 

 last week. He is showing some nice 

 asters and roses at his store on Union 

 street. 



Among the visitors last week was L. 

 D. Bryant, of A. H. Hews & Co. Mr. 

 Bryant reports a heavy call all over the 

 country for carnation plants.

CLINTON, MASS. 



The display of flowers and plants in 

 the horticulture department of the Clin- 

 ton fair September 14 to 18 was of 

 great beauty. The gardens and green- 

 houses of the J. E. Thayer, Nathaniel 

 Thayer, E. V. E. Thayer and Bayard 

 Thayer farms, and E. W. Breed's and 

 F. P. Sawyer's florists' gardens yielded 

 of their beauty in profusion. There was 

 the usual aquatic display from the Bay- 

 ard Thayer gardens. E. V. R. Thayer's 

 specialty, orchids, were shown, though not 

 in such profusion as in some other years. 

 J. fi. Thayer's display included some re- 

 markable geraniums grown in standard 

 form. E. W. Breed showed lilies of the 

 valley, celosia and a palm of especial 

 beauty. F. P. Sawyer had a beautiful 

 showing of foliage plants. Both florists 

 showed designs. J. L. Moore, of North- 

 boro, showed gladioli and dahlias, and 

 B. Hammond Tracy, of Wenham, gladioli 

 in profusion. In the cut flower depart- 

 ment E. W. Breed showed gloxinias, 

 snapdragon and other flowers. F. P. 

 Sawyer had a special staud devoted ex- 

 clusively to a fine floral display.
