curs June 6 and 7, and the peony show 

 a week later. The show of roses and 

 late peonies comes June 20 and 21. 



William Sim had 150,000 sweet peas 

 for Memorial day, the heaviest pick 

 secured by any local grower. 



M. B. Dallachie is shipping a fine lot 

 of peonies to the Boston Cooperative 

 Market. A. H. Fewkes also has a nic6 

 lot of early varieties. 



A. Leuthy, of Eoslindale, reports slow 

 sale for bedding geraniums up to date, 

 as owing to the cool weather he has 

 few of his 25,000 plants showing flower, 

 and purchasers demand plants in bloom 

 in nearly every case. 



Carnations have never before sold so 

 well in the months of April and May in 

 the Boston market as this year. Prices 

 in these two months have been far in 

 excess of those received in January and 

 February and the demand is still good. 

 Best quality flowers easily made $4 to 

 $5 per hundred the day after Memorial 

 day. W. N. Craig. 



George H. Pieper, who conducts a 

 flower store at 453 West Broadway, 

 South Boston, was fined $5 by Judge 

 Fallon as the penalty for selling a 25- 

 cent plant on Sunday. The judge took 

 the trouble to explain that he did not 

 make the law. 



EXTERMINATING BED ANTS. 



Can you give me a remedy for red 

 antsf I have a customer whose lawn 

 is overrun with them; they destroy the 

 grass, also bedding stock as soon as 

 planted. M. K. B. S. 



Carbon bisulphide poured in the holes 

 will suffocate the ants, or you can make 

 holes with a pointed stick, pour a tea- 

 spoonful in each and then immediately 

 close up the hole. This will suffocate 

 them. Or they can be poisoned by mix- 

 ing some finely powdered cyanide of po- 

 tassium with powdered sugar and lay- 

 ing it about their haunts. Use care in 

 handling the cyanide, as it is a deadly 

 poison. White arsenic and sugar mixed 

 into a paste with some lard will also 

 poison ants, but is less effective than 

 the cyanide. Tar water poured about 

 their haunts is dist^teful to them and 

 will drive them away. C. W.
