crowded with buyers last week, espe- 

 cially on Saturday. Keports of a 

 splendid trade are general. 



The auctions will continue two or 

 three weeks longer. They have never 

 been so well attended as this year, by 

 the general public. 



J. J. Fellouris . has added a new of- 

 fice to his conveniences. 



W. G. Badgley, of Badgley, Riedel 

 & Meyer, Inc., has been displaying fine 

 sprays of goldenrod grown in his own 

 greenhouses, which has sold readily at 

 75 cents for a half dozen. Finding a 

 new rose he was cultivating was not up 

 to his expectations, he threw it put and 

 put clumps of goldenrod in its place, 

 thereby reaping the reward of con- 

 scientiousness. 



The Pennock-Meehan Co. has become 

 settled in its elegant new headquarters 

 and Percy B. Eigby is delighted with 

 the change. The old store, with others 

 adjoining, is rapidly being dismantled, 

 and Mr. Nicholas has several applica- 

 tions from wholesale florists for the 

 ground floors, when completed in the 

 fall. 



The attendance May 25, at the meet- 

 ing to consider establishing a cut flower 

 auction, was not encouraging to its pro- 

 moters, the Thurston Co. Of the dozen 

 present, five were representatives of 

 trade papers and three were wholesale 

 florists on West Twenty-eighth street. 



The Growers' Cut Flower Co. is sad- 

 Jy cramped for room and Manager 

 Coan is at his wits' end frequently at 

 this season, finding space for the big 

 consignments. 



M. A. Bowe is waiting patiently for 

 the completion of the 23-story building, 

 at Thirty-fourth street and Broadway,
