Visitors. 



Eber Holmes, representing W. A. 

 Manda, South Orange, N. J., has had a 

 display of pot plants for several days 

 at the store of the E. C. Amling Co. 



A visitor on the market early this 

 week was M. E. Carter, of the William 

 L. Eock Flower Co., of Kansas City, 

 Mo. 



Among the week's visitors was H. E. 

 Krebs, of H. E, & C. W. Krebs, Cedar 

 Bapids, la. 



H. E. Philpott, of Winnipeg, who 

 visited Chicago last week, has returned 

 to Canada by way of Minneapolis.

The Market. 



Market conditions last week re- 

 mained unchanged from those of the 

 week previous, save that receipts of 

 mums were heavier and that pompons 

 attained more prominence. 



As Thanksgiving occurs unusually 

 late this year — November 30 — the mum 

 season will be a prolonged one. Per- 

 haps the desirable effects of this condi- 

 tion will be steadier prices on mums 

 and an absence of the customary mum 

 glut early in November. 



Once again Paper Whites claim the 

 attention of buyers — an evidence that 

 the bulb season is well upon us. 



Those of the growers who did not 

 replenish their coal bins or failed to 

 contract for their supply of coal when 

 prices were lower, are in for an expen- 

 sive winter, it seems. The current quo- 

 tation on soft coal is $4.25 per ton, on

track — for run-of-mine coal that last 

 year was worth only $2.70. The prices 

 probably will continue to soar; the 

 chances for a recession in prices are 

 slim indeed. 



The grower "who cuts prices on his 

 products this winter will be considered 

 by many in the first stages of lunacy. 



Fall Flower Show. 



The final premium list of the Cleve- 

 land fall flower show, which will be 

 held at Hotel HoUenden November 10 

 to 12, under the joint auspices of the 

 Cleveland Florists' Club, the Ohio 

 Horticultural Society and the Garden 

 Club of Cleveland, is being distributed, 

 and copies of the list may be had from 

 M. A. Vinson, 402 Leader building. 



The committee in charge of the show 

 consists of the following: Frank A. 

 Friedl^, chairman; C. E. Bussell, 



W. E. Cook, O. P. Blackman, H. B. 

 Rapley, Rudolph Thurman and E. A. 

 Bause. 



The chief interest in the show is cen- 

 tered around the Corrigan cup, which 

 is valued at $500 and offered as a prize 

 to the private grower of Ohio having 

 the best exhibit of thirty-six gladiolus 

 blooms, six varieties, six blooms of 

 each. The cup becomes the temporary 

 property of the winner for one year 

 and must be returned to the Cleveland 

 flower show committee one month be- 

 fore the date of the next show. Be- 

 fore this cup becomes the permanent 

 property of any private grower, he 

 must win it three times at the Cleve- 

 land show. Only private growers of 

 Ohio can compete. 



The commercial classes call for ex- 

 hibits of cyclamens, begonias, valley, 

 lilies, calendulas, violets and an- 

 tirrhinums. F. A. F.
