NEW BEDFORD NOTES. 

 Trade Jottings. 



Vacations over, and with the fall sea- 

 son on hand business has been improv- 

 ing every day. The past week when 

 the rainy weather caused havoc with 

 the outdoor stuff, there was a big de- 

 mand for indoor flowers, with little to 

 be had. Chrysanthemums are now 

 showing up in the store windows, and 

 amongst the growers the plants are 

 looking fine. R. E. Nofftz, H. A. Jahn 

 and R. H. Woodhouse were the first 

 to cut some nice Polly Rose and Glory 

 Pacific. The local dahlia exhibitors 

 have been very fortunate this year, 

 bringing home many prizes from ever\ 

 city where they exhibited. 



Local festivities have started in with 

 the right kind of a snap. A banquet 

 and dancing party given to Mis.s Eliza- 

 beth Peirce at Fairhaven Town Ball 

 gave Peter Murray an opportunity to 

 display his artistic abilities, and on 

 October 9, R. H. Woodhouse has an 

 elaborate church decoration for the 

 Peirce-Vv'illiamson wedding. We men- 

 tion these simply to show that New 

 Bedford's season is beginning with a 

 noise that sounds like a glorious win- 

 ter for business. 



Personal. 



Fred C. Covell, formerly with E. H. 

 Chamberlin, has now taken the posi- 

 tion of manager of the flower depart- 

 ment of the Shepard Co. in Providence, 

 R. I.
