Asters are still holding their own 

 in the Philadelphia market notwith- 

 standing the lateness o( the season. 

 We saw some yesterday (Oct. 14) a 

 pink variety of good size and loose 

 chrysanthemum build selling for eight 

 a hundred and comparing them with 

 'mums no larger they were a bargain 

 at the price. Dahlias are also in good 

 form and plentiful. Of course the 

 'mum folks are wishing old Jack Frost 

 would come along but they are mean 

 critters and think only of the dollar. 

 There seems to be room for them all; 

 — roses, 'mums, dahlias, asters, carna- 

 tions, and there is none of that gluty 

 condition with waste all around so 

 common in the summer months. 

 American Beauty has eased up a little 

 in price and the cattleya is also 

 within reach of folks with moderate 

 sized purses. 



From now on we may look for a 

 gradual improvement in the chrysan- 

 themum market and the early indica- 

 tions are that it will be fully equal to 

 all that has gone before. The growers 

 are well prepared and are ready with 

 best, including all the latest novelties. 

 If these novelties stand the market 

 test they are the real McKaye. Of

course there are other tests but in the 

 long run the market test is the one 

 that tends to longevity — a long and 

 happy life and an honorable record in 

 the halls of fame. Our old friend 

 Colonel Bonaffon of blessed memory 

 would clap his hands with joy to hear 

 us say this. Bonaffon still reigns 

 after all these years.
