 How can any grower e.xpeet those bracts 

 to develop? And ean it be possible that

Stock for Thanksgiving was well or- 

 dered up, especially in roses, and good 

 shipping roses were exceedingly short of 

 demand. In carnations all colored stock 

 found ready mftrket, but gome white 

 went begging. All mums fit to cut were 

 crowded on the market and prices aver- 

 agfed up pretty well, due probably to the 

 shortage in roses. Violets were badly off 

 crop an<l prices almost went beyond 

 reach of buyers. American Beauties 

 were unusually scarce for this season of 

 the year. Stevia and paper whites were 

 equal to the demand.

 Thanksgiving Day at the expense of Ihi'
