Gene Smith and McDoel, pair of the

cally clear sweep. winning nearly all the

There was a good supply of hogs on the

was nothing offered that was as good as
yesterdays tops. The demand was fully

Trading in cattle was much livelier to
day than of late. The receipts were fair
and quality was better than it has been,
though it was only fair, and there was but
a very small showing of good or choice
butcher stuff. The buyers were freer in
taking hold and generally paid steady to
strong prices. This was on fair to good
she butcher stuff. On the poor stuffs
trading was dull and prices are still at the
low ebb. The demand for some choice
killing cattle is still unsatisfed. The
market was about cleared of stuff at the
close

FEMALE FLORICULTURIsTs
Census Bulletin on q New Field Of
Labor for Women.


A census bulletin on Horticulture, given
out for publication few days ago, has an
interesting history. 1t is understood to be
the result of e suggestion made by the wife
of the Superintendent OF the Census, with
view of opening up new avenue Of employ
ment for women. Superintendent Porter
from the day he received his appointment
until now, has been worn down by pitiful ap-
peals from women for employment. With
out straining facts it might be said that the
proportion Of rejected women applicants was
as high as ninety-nine out of O hundred.
Many Of those disappointed took a wop,an's
chance and appealed to the wife Of the
Superintendent, who seeing 80 many help
less females in the world, turned her mind to
devislng some new opening to employment.
The result was the special report on horicul.
ture which now appears and which was made
at her suggestion.
1t seems that there are already over 300
Horticultural establishments owned and man
aged by women and the number is susceptible
of being indefinitely increased. The returns of
receipts from cut flowers for last year exceed
$4,000, 900. This is undoubtedly only part of
the actual receipts derived from this source.
The products of the year were nearly
50,000,000 of rose bushes and 153,-
000.00 of other plants Pennsylvania,
Illinois and Ohio are the States
where the propagation of roses is carried on
most extensively New York, Illinois and
Kansas take the lead in the propagation of
hardy plants, and New York, Illinois, Penn
sylvania and California are about equal in
the value of their cut flower sales. The i'll
dustry is capable Of much greater develop
ment, and is one for which women are pecu-
harly adapted.
