The Market. 



Business has been exceptionally good 

 for this time of year, owing to the 

 deaths resulting from an epidemic of 

 typhoid. The supply of stock hardly 

 equals the demand, but roses are be- 

 coming more plentiful; short stock in 

 all colors is to be had from 2 cents 

 to 4 cents, a few firsts and selects 

 bringing 5 cents and 6 cents. Beau- 

 ties are to be had from 75 cents to $3 

 per dozen, but they are not in great 

 demand. Asters are scarce; mediums 

 are from 2^^ cents to 3 cents, selects 

 bringing as high as 5 cents. Lilies also 

 are scarce and bring from 10 cents to 

 12 cents. Carnations are not available 

 in large quantity. Mums are beginning 

 to arrive at $1.50 to $2 per dozen and 

 are finding a good market. Gladioli are 

 scarce and dahlias out of the question, 

 the hot, dry season causing the failure 

 of these two crops. 



The plant business is rapidly picking 

 up, owing to the fact that seventy 

 grade schools and three higli schools 

 opened this week, which means that 

 there are 1,300 schoolrooms to be deco- 

 rated. The plant business is encour- 

 aging and business prospects for the 

 next few months are good. 



State Florists' Meeting. 



The monthly meeting of the State 

 Florists' Association of Indiana was 

 held at the commission and supply 

 house of the Smith & Young Co., Sep- 

 tember 7. The meeting started with 

 more vim, vigor and snap than ever 

 before. A great deal of business was 

 on hand, which was followed by sev- 

 eral interesting discussions. Founda- 

 tion plans were laid for the coming of 

 the American Carnation Society, .Janu- 

 ary 31 and February 1, at the Claypool 

 hotel. Arrangements also were made 

 for a float for the Indiana centennial 

 pageant in October. 



The next meeting will be an unusual 

 one, a two days' session, to be held 

 the. first day at New Albany, Ind., the 

 second at Louisville, Ky., with the Ken- 

 tucky State Florists' Association. The 

 date for this will be set later. 



The city attendance for the meeting 

 was large. Out-of-town members pres- 

 ent were: President William .T. Vesey, 

 Fort Wayne; Wm. Gardener, Richmond; 

 Jake Itie, Greencastle; Arthur Pett, 

 Crawfordsville: F. Windier, Rushville; 

 E. C. Sharp, Noblesville. 



State Fair Flower Show. 



The Indiana state fair, September 

 4 to 8, was up to the standard, not be- 

 ing greater than in previous years be- 

 cause of the fear of the impending 

 railroad strike. The floral display was 

 good in most lines, but the aster, 

 gladiolus and dahlia exhibits of pre-
