NEW BEDFOBD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Business was rather quiet here last 

 week, though funeral work was fair. 

 Asters are gone, except a few small 

 side blooms. Carnations are now of 

 good quality. Wholesale prices stiflf- 

 ened during the last week or so. Car- 

 nations retail at 50 cents per dozen, 

 good roses at $1.25 and $1.50 per dozen. 



Some fine Killarneys are now com- 

 ing in. Violets sell fairly well; 75 

 cents per hundred blooms is the gen- 

 eral retail price. Snapdragons retail at 

 75 cents per dozen. Mums are now ar- 

 riving in limited quantities; these sell 

 at $2.50 per dozen, retail. A few gla- 

 dioli are still to be seen. Candytuft, 

 alyssum and other fine white flowers 

 help considerably. Greens are quite 

 plentiful. There has been no frost up 

 to date and everything is blooming out- 

 doors. Dahlias are in full splendor. 



Various Notes. 



Peter Murray, of Fairhaven, Mass., 

 has his new house, 42x162, all planted 

 to carnations. He is commencing to cut 

 early mums. He will have some nice 

 plants for the holidays. A new No. 8 

 Kroeschell boiler helps to run the new 

 range. 



E. H. Chamberlain is back again, 

 after being on the sick list. 



Wm. P. Peirce is making some nice 

 window displays these days. This es- 

 tablishment, since Julius Eositzsky took 

 hold, is one of the most up-to-date and 

 enterprising stores in this section. 



Wm. H. Davenport has had some nice 

 mums in his window lately. 



Visitors: A. Leuthy, Eoslindale, 

 Mass.; Mr. Smith, of W. J. Boas & Co., 

 Philadelphia, and Mr. Greenlaw, of the 

 Pennock-Meehan Co. W. L. 



Little Silver, N. J. — A new dahlia, 

 originated by John T. Lovett, has been 

 named for Miss Lillian Sexton, queen 

 of the recent Asbury Park carnival.
