Trade drojiped oil' considerably dur- 

 ing Thursday and Friday of last week, 

 but the .extra line weather of Saturday 

 helped to run off a lot of the surplus 

 stock, although we believe that the con- 

 tinual rush of mums will have a ten- 

 dency to overload tlie market for a few 

 days, and we liear on all sides that "the 

 last bunch of chrysanthemums are just 

 lovely yet,"' which those of the trade 

 recognize as one of the reasons why 

 mums usually kill the cut flower market 

 after they have been in about three 

 weeks. 



We notice a considerable increase in 

 the supply of carnations, and note that 

 some of the large growers are pulling 

 down the price considerably. 



Good mums are being sold at from 2 

 to 8 cents, roses from U to 6 cents and 

 carnations at from 1 to 3 cents. Seeing 

 the kind of stock that is going at so low 

 a figure we wonder where the higher 

 priced stuff comes in. The Timothy 

 Eaton mum is filling the front window's 

 of most of the large stores. 



Mr. John Cotterill has just returned 

 home from a deer hunt feeling much re- 

 cuperated. He reported game scarce but 

 said he bad a good time. Mr. Cotterill 

 is cutting some Golden Weddings, which 

 are as fine as any to be seen in the city

WASHINGTON, D. C. 



It is reported in the daily press that 

 owing to the removal of the White 

 House conservatories, Mr. Henry Pfis- 

 tcr, who has for so many years been 

 head gardener, will no longer be re- 

 quired in that capacity. He "has an ex- 

 tended acquaintance in the trade and 

 his many friends will learn with regret 

 that he is no longer to serve in his old 

 position. 



Los Angeles, Cal. — Mrs. Theodosia 

 B. Shepherd, of Ventura, Cal., recently 

 addressed two large audiences in this 

 city. In one ease her subject was "Care 

 of House Plants," and the second was 

 "New Ci-eations in Flowers and How 

 They Are Made." The two lectures were 

 most favorably mentioned by the local 

 press.
