{Continued from page 3^3) 



There has been a 

 INDIANAPOLIS marked improve^ 

 ment in trade since 

 September 1st. It has required hust- 

 ling to get enough high grade stock 

 to fill orders. Asters are in abundance, 

 the later ones being of much better 

 CiUality than the early crop. Gladioli 

 are of exceptional quility and are be- 

 ing moved in . large numbers. Roses 

 sell moderately well. Some good uew- 

 crop Beauties are arriving and bring 

 good figures. Kaiserin remains the 

 best white summer rose. The new 

 crop of tea roses is scarcely worth 

 picking. Golden Glow chrysanthemums 

 bring fair prices considering quality. 

 Plenty of cosmos, dahlias and other 

 outdoor stock are available, but there 

 is no great demand for them. Some 

 outdoor carnations of fair quality are 

 seen. 



Business continues 

 NEW YORK quiet. There is little 

 high grade stock in 

 roses, but enough to meet the demand. 

 The supply of carnations is gradually 

 increasing but the stems are short and 

 consequently they are of little value 

 and remain practically untouched. The 

 supply of lily of the valley is decreas- 

 ing. Callas appear in limited quantity. 

 There is no lack of asters, however, 

 the market is full of them and they 

 sell at all kinds of prices.

DETROIT NEWS. 



Frank Holznagel is erecting a new 

 office building. The steady growth of 

 the city is pl.acing him rapidly amongst 

 up-to-date residences and he is chang- 

 ing from a wholesale grower to a pros- 

 perous retailer. 



Thomas Brown has added a Ford 

 roadster which in the future will daily 

 deliver his product at the Michigan 

 Cut Flower E.xchange. In the past he 

 was dependent on the courtesy of the 

 Suburban line conductors who, perhaps 

 rightly, objected many times to carry- 

 ing his large telescope boxes. 



INDIANAPOLIS PERSONALS.

 on August 27, the damage done being
