The Market. 



The week ending June 1 was an ex- 

 ceptionally busy one. In addition to 

 the extra business for Memorial day, 

 cut flower trade was unusually brisk for 

 this time of year, largely due to early 

 graduation exercises. 



Peonies have put in an appearance, 

 but are not at all abundant and are 

 small in size. White lilacs were much 

 in evidence for Decoration day, as were 

 tulips and iris. Carnations are show- 

 ing the effects of approaching summer, 

 as also are roses. 



The finer varieties of iris are putting 

 in an appearance and are indeed wel- 

 come. Harrisii lilies are not so plenti- 

 ful and the price is going up. Outdoor 

 valley is about gone, but indoor stock is 

 all that can be desired and sells well. 

 Cattleyas are of fine quality, but the 

 demand has fallen off. 



Bedding plants are selling better than 

 anything else and landscape gardeners 

 are working overtime. 



Various Notes. 



The Eochester Floral Co. had an at- 

 tractive Memorial day window display. 



Mrs. Felix Alberts will arrive in 

 Rochester June 10, after having spent 

 the winter in the west. 



Henry P. Neun has an elegant speci- 

 men of Ihe Japanese wistaria in full 

 bloom at his home, and it has over a 

 thousand blossoms. 



Salter Bros, are showing some fine 

 gloxinias at their east Main street 

 store. They report a fair Memorial day 

 trade. 



J. B. Keller Sons did a big business 

 last week for Memorial day, funerals, 

 weddings, etc. 



The state fair commission announced 

 the following appointments May 27: 

 Charles H. Vick, manager of flower 

 show; Charles G. Porter, of Albion, 

 manager of fruit department; Albert 

 6. Miller, of Elmira, vegetable and 

 farm produce. 



Albert Rayton's hydrangeas have 

 been exceptionally fine the last few 

 weeks, although they were intended for 

 Easter and were late. 



Baby gladioli, sweet peas and pansies 

 of extra good quality are coming from 

 Wm. Scott Co., and William Ehman, of 

 Corfu, N. Y. 



Messing Bros., who have recently pur- 

 chased the greenhouses of W. D. Oviatt, 

 on Highland avenue, have begun cut- 

 ting their spring crop of sweet peas, 

 which are line and find a ready market. 



Joseph Cragg has been producing 

 some fine Asparagus plumosus in the 

 new greenhouse he took possession of 

 some time ago. These houses were for- 

 merly owned by E. H. Buerstow. 



E.G. A. 



Burnet, Tex. — Mrs. C. E. Preston 

 has purchased the greenhouses of J. T. 

 H. Miller and will- continue the busi- 

 ness. Mr. Miller expects to reenter 

 the trade elsewhere before long.
