The Market. 



Trade has been heavy during the last 

 two weeks and no doubt more stock has 

 been moved than usual at this time. 

 Chrysanthemums, which have come in 

 heavily, are cleaned up daily and in 

 some cases it is hard to secure enough 

 of them 'to go the rounds. And there 

 seem to be more mums on the market 

 than usual at this date. 



Roses are in fine condition and all 

 that could be desired. Some extra fine 

 Ophelia roses are to be seen, as well as 

 Sunburst, Killarney, Richmond and a 

 fair sprinkling of Russell. Carnations 

 are of good quality, but at times there 

 is a shortage of them, as some of the 

 growers are not cutting largely as yet. 

 In most cases the plants are looking 

 well and promise good crops later on. 



Lilies are rather scarce and mums are 

 frequently substituted for them. Valley 

 has almost been out of the question 

 here, and it is risky to take any orders 

 for it, for as a rule one is sure to be 

 disappointed. There is still quite a 

 batch of outdoor stock, cutting a figure 

 for use in cheap work. Snapdragons 

 are scarce, far short of the demand. 

 There are few potted plants of any 

 kind, but potted mums will be in short- 

 ly. There is a shortage of smilax, but 

 plenty of other greens. 



Various Notes. 



The Livingston Seed Co. reports 

 heavy business in all cut stock, espe- 

 cially mums, and says that it cannot 

 buy enough to supply the demands.

McCray Florists 

 Refrigerators 



The McCRAY construction keeps flowers cool and fresh longer 

 than by any other system of refrigeration. It provides an even 

 temperature of the correct degree for cut flowers and stops the 

 great waste and profit loss that is caused by imperfect refrigeration 



The various compartments in a McCRAY are of different 

 sizes to accommodate the different lengths of cut flower stems and 

 your flowers are given an inviting display. 



For interior linings you have your choice of either handsome 

 bevel plate mirror or beautiful white enamel, which are very easy 

 to clean. The exterior may be of any finish desired to match the 

 interior of your store woodwork or other fixtures. 



Invest in a McCRAY. Make it a partner in your business. 

 You will value it more highly than its mere intrinsic dollar-and- 

 cents value. Investigate anyway!
