Trade duiiiiy llie Jiasl week lias Ix'eil 

 very much of a see-saw nature, on an 

 average good, but very much up and 

 down. Tlie mums are giving place to 

 carnations, roses and violets, and the 

 wholesale man appreciates the change 

 when he reckons up his bill for bo.xes, 

 etc. 



Carnations are coming in now with 

 very fine stems. Some extra line Lawsoii 

 is being sent in by Mr. Chas. Turp. Tliis 

 variety promises to be very good this 

 season with most of the growers around 

 here, and at present yielding with any 

 of the best varieties. 



Mr. W. L. Lindsay, a graduate of the 

 H. Dale conservatories, who started out 

 at Tilsonburg a year or so ago, is send- 

 ing in some very fine roses and carna- 

 tions of the standard varieties. 



The Florists' and Gardeners' Associ 

 ation held its regular meeting on Tues- 

 day, Nov. 18. The committee appointed 

 to report on the carnation show reported 

 favoring holding the carnation show 

 early in March, and intend to make this 

 a greater success than those of previous 

 years. It was recommended to add a 

 prize list, with cash value, for the dif- 

 ferent exhibits. When the meeting ad- 

 journed a social time was held and 

 everybody enjoyed themselves. 



Mr. E. Walker, of Hamilton, was a 

 visitor in town this week, D. J, 



ANNAPOLIS. MD. 



Rudolph Kaiser supplied some very 

 liandsome and elaborate decorations for 

 a recent wedding in high life. The resi- 

 dence was elaborately decorated witii 

 wild smilax, potted plants and ehi-yB;in- 

 themums, while the church was hand- 

 somely decorated with palms, ferns and 

 chrysanthemums, a large bell of white 

 mums, violets and valley being a cen- 

 tral feature. The bride carried ;i 

 shower bouquet of white violets and val- 

 ley, the maid-of-honor had white chrys- 

 anthemums and the bridesmaids carried 

 Dailledouze mums tied vrith yellow mull.

 Mr. Thbron N. Parkkr,

 Dear Sir: I have used your Wire 

 Carnation Supports for the last two 

 years, in all about 12,000. They fill 

 the bill in every particular. NoUiing 

 could be more satisfactory, and it 

 would give me a great deal of pleas- 

 ure if I can bespeak a good word for 

 you to the trade, and you are at lib- 

 erty to refer to me at any time. 

 Yours very truly.

 Dear Sir.— After using yonr Model 

 carnation support in two of our 

 houses the past winter we have come 

 to the conclusion that it is perfectly 

 adapted to supporting carnation 

 plants and shall use them on all our 

 plants the coming season. We were 

 much pleased with the simplicity, strength and neat ap- 

 pearance of the support. Yours truly.
