i^Continurd from page 4^Q) 



Counter sales have been 

 DETROIT verj' encouraging during 

 the last week and dur- 

 ing the latter part stock became very 

 scarce. These are the weeks of trans- 

 formation which almost every year 

 cause a great deal of inconvenience 

 to the retailer. Garden flowers are 

 about passed and indoors are not far 

 enough advanced either in quality or 

 quantity to meet the increasing de- 

 mand. Elmer D. Smith shipped a very 

 fine lot of yellow chrysanthemums to 

 the Michigan Cut Flower Exchange, 

 but the real cut locally will not start 

 for a week or ten days. Some October 

 Frost are promised for the latter part 

 of this week. Very bright and crisp 

 weather has set in, causing those who 

 grow roses to start their furnaces. 

 This is three days later than last year. 



A general and very 

 NEW YORK welcome improvement 



is noted in the mar- 

 ket; cool weather and a cessation in 

 the aster supply has turned the atten- 

 tion of buyers more to the indoor stock. 

 There is a fair supply of chrysanthe- 

 mums of Golden Glow, October Frost 

 and Rosarie varieties, which move eas- 

 ily when quality is good. Carnations 

 arc coming in sufficient quantity to 

 supply present needs. In roses the 

 situation is satisfactory. Very excel-

lent grades of Marylands and Killar- 

 neys are to be had and little difficulty 

 is found in disposing of them. Lily 

 of the valley is not plentiful, Cattle- 

 yas are growing more numerous and 

 quotations are lower. Lilies are stiffer 

 in price; green stock moves very slow- 

 ly. The Hudson-Fulton celebration 

 has not created any extra demand for 

 cut flowers, except in a few instances 

 where decoiative stock such as chry- 

 santhemums and Beauties were wanted. 



We are tired 

 PHILADELPHIA p r e a c h i n g the 



same sermon ev- 

 ery week. Business keeps improving 

 right along with the season of course, 

 and the supplies of flowers ditto. Our 

 editor seems to think we all want the 

 particulars of the menu — week in and 

 week out. But soup, entree, roast 

 and pumpkin — says the cook. If you 

 want pate-de-foie-gras, mushrooms, and 

 sich, we will supply them, if you say 

 so. Pink chrysanthemums are in — 

 Mcntmore. For seven days nothing 

 has really happened in this market — 

 all humdrum — so this note is really a 

 waste of space. 



Sue c e e d i ng the 

 WASHINGTON heavy equinoctial 

 storm of the 24th 

 everything has taken on autumn tints 

 and dahlias and the earlier chrysanthe- 

 mums are in evidence, also good qual- 

 ity carnations— unusually good.
