NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Outside of funeral work there is lit- 

 tle doing here. Flowers are none too 

 plentiful and asters are chiefly depend- 

 ed upon. They retail at 35 cents and 50 

 cents per dozen. Eoses are good at 

 from $1 to $1.50 per dozen. Sweet 

 peas have had a poor season and are 

 about all gone now. Some nice gla- 

 dioli are seen at $2 per dozen and the 

 few carnations that are coming in 

 bring 50 cents. 



Various Notes. 



Last week brought us several good, 

 soaking rains. 



Early closing is still the rule. 



R. H. Woodhouse sailed September 1 

 for Ireland, where he will join his wife 

 and son, returning in about six weeks. 



William P. Peirce and Julius Ru- 

 sitzsky were in Boston last week. 



George Borden has returned from 

 his two weeks' vacation in New 

 Hampshire. 



The New Bedford Horticultural So- 

 ciety will hold its annual flower show 

 September 14 to 16 and a great many 

 prizes will be ofl'ered. W. L. 



MOUNT STERLING, KY. 



Business is quiet, on account of this 

 entire section of the country suffering 

 from prolonged drought. Crops of all 

 kinds have been damaged and some 

 have been complete failures. This 

 makes the country people close their 

 pocketbooks and is the cause of a fall- 

 ing off in business, not only with flo- 

 rists, but everyone else. 



Graser & Humphreys had 12,000 as- 

 ters planted in the field, but only 2,000 

 are left to tell the story of the sum- 

 mer's vicissitudes, and these are pro- 

 ducing few good flowers. Now the as- 

 ter beetle is here to finish them off. 

 This firm has just moved from the old 

 Gorbett greenhouses and is erecting a 

 honse for mums on its own property, 

 while operating the business from tbe 

 store in the Tabb Theater building.
