tity and quality and are selling well 

 at reasonable prices. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are now showing a good pace 

 and pretty soon they will be the 

 dominating feature. Violets, both 

 single and double, are also worthy of 

 mention and are showing up in good 

 shape. 



The market is not 

 ROCHESTER in a very brisk con- 

 dition. Stock has 

 shortened up considerably. All that 

 remains in outdoor flowers is a few 

 asters and dahlias. Roses are reach- 

 ing us in fair quantities and sell good. 

 Ophelia. Wards. Sunbursts, September 

 Morn and Scott Key are about the best 

 sellers on this market. Lilies are not 

 over plentiful and are advancing in 

 prices. Chrysanthemums are slow in 

 reaching us and the demand is becom- 

 ing larger. Carnations are almost out 

 of the question. Dahlias sell good. A 

 quantity of African marigolds are 

 seen. Violets are selling easier. 



Cool weather has stiff- 

 ST. LOUIS ened prices, Mrs. Rus- 

 sell roses are looking 

 fine and are selling well. Most all 

 outdoor flowers are done. There are 

 a few straggling dahlias still on the 

 market.
