The Southwestern Market. 



The local cut flower market had a 

 good week, as the demand of the re- 

 tailers was quite large, owing to much 

 graduating work and a number of fash- 

 ionable weddings. The season is con- 

 sidered practically over for social work 

 of any kind. The growers all say they 

 are in a bad way for rain, and field 

 stock is suffering much for the want of 

 a heq,vy downpour. All outdoor cut 

 stock coming in shows the effects of 

 the dry spell. 



In looking over the stock last week 

 we found plenty of everything seasona- 

 ble, but the quality generally was poor 

 and prices suffered greatly. Roses are 

 in great demand. Killarneys are in the 

 majority. Carnations are small, but the 

 best commanded $3 per hundred. Sweet 

 peas were more plentiful than the 

 previous week and the demand excellent 

 at all times. Gladioli stacked up greatly 

 last week. The dry weather is holding 

 them back. Valley and Easter lilies 

 cleaned up almost daily. There were 

 a great many asters in the market, and 

 the demand was good. Fancy ferns con- 

 tinue scarce, which caused a large de- 

 mand for other greens. 



Club Meeting. 



June 12 the twenty-seventh anni- 

 versary meeting of the St. Louis Flo- 

 rists' Club was held in the graduate 

 lecture room at the Missouri Botanical 

 Garden, and it proved to be the largest 

 of the year. When the meeting opened, 

 with ex-President Ammann in the chair, 

 sixty-five members were present. Mr.
