Boses are being eent to the market in great quantities and the quality keeps up unusually well. Short Beauties are in good supply. Carnations will soon be a thing of the past, as they cannot stand the ravages of the heat under glass much longer. The field-grown stock is in fine shape and will soon be ready to be planted in the houses. Asters are arriving in much larger quantities, but there is little or no improvement in their size. The market has been extremely quiet. Funeral work constitutes the chief demand, as social events are few. Vacations are being planned on all sides. Various Notes.

Miss Marjoiy Bradley, of the same firm, is planning a visit to Lansing, Mich., and other points in that state. Mrs. C. D. Bradley will spend several weeks at the Illinois lake resorts. Doswell & Son are having a good summer business. They have a fine supply of gladioli and all kinds of outdoor stock. A. J. Lanternier & Sons have been busy with funeral work and an occa- sional wedding. Their chrysanthemums in the houses and their carnations in the field are in excellent condition. J.

French bisque vases and baskets, with the French figures and Cupids, were filled with a combination of Ophelia and Shawyer roses, while the announce- ment was painted on a single rose petal, hidden in a Shawyer rose at each place. Covers were laid for thirty. Miss C. B. Flick is planning a trip to the Panama exposition in Au- gust. Misses Margaret and Mildred Flick are spending their vacations in Cleveland and Fostoria, O. E.
