Tlianksgiving trade was very good, 

 there being a good demand for all cut 

 flowers. Stock has been somewhat scarce 

 and prices have rulea' higher than for 

 several years. Indications point to a big 

 Christmas trade and every one is making 

 preparations for the biggest trade on rec- 

 ord. In cut flowers, roses and bulbous 

 stock will be quite plentiful, while violets 

 and carnations will fall short of the de- 

 mand. 



While there is an increased area of 

 glass over last year, there is still a short- 

 age of good stock, which leads us to re- 

 mark that our growers are not growing 

 the proper stock. If they would plant 

 more carnations and fewer bedding plants, 

 more specialties and less general stock, 

 profits would be larger and much of the 

 good money that now goes to Chicago 

 would remain at home. However, preach- 

 ino- is easier than practice, and I will not 

 sermonize more at present. 



Christmas greens are very much in ev- 

 idence on every hand. Bouquet green is 

 very short in quantity, but of good qual- 

 ity. Holly appears to be of good quality 

 and fairly plentiful. Mistletoe is appar. 

 ently as popular as ever and every one 

 seems to want a sprig or two at least, 

 while many buy it by the pound. 



One party here who carried over some 

 green from last year seems to be making 

 a good thing out of it. By carefully se- 

 lecting and dyeing it, a very presentable 

 festooning is made which sells readily. 



L. L. May & Co. have a nice lot of Har- 

 risii lilies and azaleas that will be just 

 right for Christmas gifts. 



Holm & Olson are out with a brand new 

 rig for delivering. 



Uaugen & Swansen had' quite a bad 

 freeze a few weeks since, which proved 

 disastrous to several houses of violets. 



All violets in this vicinity are late and 

 will be scarce until after the holidays.
