There is perhaps no more popular Begonia on the market today. Its floriferousness and 

 all-round satisfactory behavior make it a favorite with both grower and customer. We 

 have fine plants in 3-inch pots, ready to shift into 5 or 6-inch azalea pots for flowering, 



$8.00 per 100. 



MERRY CHRISTMAS. 



We will be glad to have you visit our place any time, to look over this fine scarlet Carnation of 

 ours. Visitors invariably express themselves as being highly pleased with its appearance, and we 

 feel sure you will like it too. Many orders have already been booked for rooted cuttings and we 

 are booking them right along now. Better hop onto the bandwagon now. 



$12.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000.

The Market. 



There has been an increase in the 

 supply of chrysanthemums, but these 

 flowers as yet are not too abundant. 

 The quality and variety are improving 

 daily. Carnations are improving in qual- 

 ity and increasing in quantity. Gladioli 

 are rapidly passing from the market. Not- 

 withstanding the frosts, asters continue 

 to come into the market. They have 

 brought far better prices than in other 

 years. 



Dahlias were fairly plentiful last 

 week, and the quality was fine. Earlier 

 in the season the flowers were not so 

 perfect as desired, but there has been 

 no trouble on that score during the 

 last two or three weeks. Cosmos is 

 more plentiful and of good quality. 

 Orchids are plentiful and cheap. Good 

 valley is scarce and high. 



The florists' business has been a lit- 

 tle slow in starting this fall, but now 

 each week shows some improvement. 

 There have been a considerable number 

 of October weddings and these have 

 helped to increase sales. 



Growers who put in a winter's sup- 

 ply of coal during the summer are for- 

 tunate, as the price has advanced and 

 may go up again before the winter is 

 over. 



Various Notes. 



Philips Bros, report business good so 

 far this month. There has been an in- 

 crease of funeral work over that of 

 last month, and a considerable quantity 

 of wedding work. Counter trade is 

 fair. 



According to New Jersey state sta- 

 tistics, florists' products grown annually 

 in New Jersey are valued at $4,000,000. 



H. B. McKnight, grower for A. C. 

 Begerow, has finished taking his stevia 

 plants from the field. The plants have 

 been put in deep frames and as soon 

 as the first crop of chrysanthemums is 

 gone they will be transferred to the 

 greenhouses. Mums are reported to be 

 remarkably free from disease this year. 

 Carnation plants have been small, but 

 they are growing better now. They 

 are stocky and healthy and promise a 

 good crop. R. B. M.
