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 is no denying that the chrysan- 

 themunr is holding its own as the queen 

 of autumn — everywhere it is the pre- 

 dominating feature. Mums are retail- 

 ing all the way from 25 cents per dozen 

 for the small ones to $5 and $6 per 

 dozen for the big, fluffy aristocrats. 

 There is a fair abundance of roses, 

 carnations and other stock, but these 

 move comparatively slowly. The Hal- 

 loween spirit has been growing appre- 

 ciably during the last few years and 

 this year it is most pronounced. The 

 demand for autumn leaves for private 

 and public decorations has been large. 



Greenhousemen hereabouts are con- 

 fronted by a serious problem in regard 

 to their coal supply. A number of the 

 growers who made contracts in the 

 spring claim that they are unable to 

 secure necessary shipments and can get 

 no positive assurances that a supply 

 will be forthcoming. At best the grow- 

 ers have had to pay from $3 to $5 per 

 ton more for coal than a year ago, but 

 even at this they are short. 



Various Notes. 



Smith, the Florist, had an attractive- 

 Halloween window last week, a combi- 

 nation of autumn leaves, cornstalks and 

 pumpkin lanterns. 



Howard Olney, of Simmonsville, is 

 curtailing his benchings and will use 

 only one house this winter. 



Samuel Kinder, of Bristol, returned 

 from a three weeks' camping and fish- 

 ing trip to Prudence island in Narra- 

 gansett bay last week. During his va- 

 cation he had a narrow escape. The 

 small motor boat in which he and 

 others were fishing became disabled and 

 they had to remain out in a heavy gale 

 and pouring rain the entire night. 



Mr. McQuard, of Ralph M. Ward & 

 Co., New York, was a recent caller on 

 local tradesmen. W. H. M. 



Dayton, O. — The source of those top- 

 notch pansies W. J. Engle has been 

 handling has been discovered. The pro- 

 ducer is L. G. Snyder, who operates a 

 greenhouse on the B. F. D. route No. 8.
