Business during the last two weeks was exceedingly quiet, a condition laid to the intense heat. The only activity seemed to be funeral work and an oc- casional wedding. A cool wave, how- ever, arrived August 26. The supply of cut flowers has been far from plentiful this summer, a fact that is principally charged to the un- favorable weather. Gladioli are more abundant than any other flower at pres- ent and good varieties are to be had. Asters are not to be reckoned with, as they are poor in quality and few in numbers. Dahlias also are poor and scarce this year. Hoses are good, for summer flowers. The first carnations from the young plants are coming in. Easter lilies are plentiful. Various Notes. The New Haven Floral Co., of New Haven, Ind., is sending some good car- nations to this market. Its asters and White Killarney roses also are finding a market here. Frank J. Knecht & Co. are cutting good Bussell roses. Miss Bhoda Doswell, of the Doswell Floral Co., has returned from a two weeks' vacation at Winona Lake, Ind. A visitor last week was D. Geddis, representing the cut flower department of Vandervoort's, of St. Louis, Mo. Misses Margaret and Catherine Vesey are making an extended western trip, touring Yellowstone park and visiting relatives at Livingston, Mont. Miss Mildred Flick has returned from a three weeks' vacation at Portland, Me., and Boston, Mass. She was accom- panied by her aunt, Miss C. B. Flick, of Toledo, O. Mr. and Mrs. Bichard Blossom are joyous over the birth of a son. B. F. GBAND BAFIDS, MICH. The Market. The cool weather of the last two weeks has been a great help to the crops of asters and gladioli, and these now come in plentifully and of fairly good quality. Boses still show marks of the hot weather and are hard to obtain in the better grades. Short-stemmed stock seems plentiful. Carnations
