the long delayed warm weather. Carna- 

 tions are in good demand, and so are 

 roses and sweet peas. Considerable 

 overdue stocks, etc., are coming in, but 

 are not wanted at all. Cattleyas are 

 hard to move, even gigas not bringing 

 any more money than is ordinarily se- 

 cured for Mo8si«e. Peonies, which came 

 mostly from New York and Phila- 

 delphia for Memorial day, are now com- 

 ing in a small way from local growers 

 and will be plentiful toward the end 

 of the week. 



Various Notes. 



H. M. Robinson & Co. report the finest 

 Memorial day business on record. They 

 sold out of everything and had to do 

 considerable running around to secure 

 suflScient stock to fill their orders. Their 

 business in artificial flowers also was 

 heavy. 



May proved to be an unusually cold 

 month, according to the local weather 

 bureau, the coldest in twenty-one years. 

 The rainfall, 3.44 inches, was below the 

 average. 



Penn 's, on Bromfield street, did heavy 

 advertising for Memorial day, using all 

 the Boston daily papers, and spending 

 over $1,500 in this way. That it paid 

 well is attested by the tremendous num- 

 ber of orders which poured in for their 

 special wreaths from all over New 

 England. They had all the orders for 

 the local Elks and among graves deco- 

 rated were those of "Wilson Barrett, 

 Maurice Barrymore, Neil Burgess and 

 other notables. Many floral tributes 

 were sent away to be dropped at sea 

 and they had quite a few European 

 orders. 



Welch Bros. Co. had a banner Me- 

 morial day trade, and the only flowers 

 left were some bunches of white spiraea. 

 Large shipments of peonies from New 

 York sold well. A fine shipment of bay 

 trees has just been received.

The Flower Growers' Sales Co. re- 

 ports business brisk, and Mr. Welchans, 

 the manager, says the demand far ex- 

 ceeded their most sanguine expectations. 



William Penn left for Lake Win- 

 nipisaukee May 31 with a party of 

 friends on a fishing trip. 



A. A. Pembroke had a superb lot of 

 carnations for Memorial day, but he 

 says nothing paid him so well as a 

 50-foot bench of Buxton's pink snap- 

 dragon. In the last three weeks he has 

 picked 300 dozen spikes, a large propor- 

 tion making $1 per dozen. He set the 

 plants eight inches apart each way.
