Trade has not been any too brisk in tlie past two weeks, nor has there been any great quantity or quality of flowers on hand. Florists are prepar- ing- for the opening of the season. Our state fair will open September 20 and continue through the week, clos- ing September 25. None of the flor- ists will have exhibits, there not hav- ing been sufiicient inducements offered for them to go to the trouble and ex- pense. There will probably be some amateur exhibits of a limited kind. Geny Bros, have had a great mis- fortune with their carnation plants. They had good thrifty stock, 30,000 plants of the very best varieties. Un- accountably the plants began to droop and die until the entire lot was lost. The plants were in three large new greenhouses and there seemed to be no reason why they should have been lost. Geny Bros, have made a spe- cialty of growing carnations and have met with great success, growing not only a large quantity, but most beau- tiful and handsome blossoms large and fine. To make good this loss they have had to buy plants and hope to come out all right in the season. Leon Geny has submitted specimens of his dead plants, the earth in which they were planted and the water, to vari- ous experts in an effort to discover the cause of his loss. The carnation plants were the only ones affected, and all were in his new stand of green- houses, some three miles
