The Markets. 



Business last week was satisfactory, 

 but the supplies of mums and carna- 

 tions were rather more than the de- 

 mand required. Large and single mums 

 sell well, but carnations find a slow 

 sale, though their quality is good. 

 Roses are in good form and sell nicely, 

 considering the large flood of mums. 

 Lilies are in short supply, but violets 

 are suflicicnt to meet the call. Totted 

 plants move slowly. 



Various Notes. 



Emil Krruiz, of ^Muscatine, la., was 

 a visitor in Davenport November !♦. 



P. G. Pearson, Arvid Anderson, (". 

 Sorensen nnd Henry Gaethje attended 

 the Illinois state florists' meeting at 

 Bloomington last week. 



C. J. Reardon and William Goos were 

 among those present at the Iowa state 

 meeting and flower show at Ames last 

 week. 



Miss M. Turney, of the Rills Floral 

 Co., reports trade good for the season, 

 with mums and roses as the prime 

 sellers. 



Forber & Bird report that single 

 mums are selling well, double pompons 

 not so well, with a good demand for the 

 large varieties. 



Harry Bills is having a large pick of 

 violets. 



The meeting of the Tri-City Florists' 

 Club was postponed to Thursday, No 

 vember 16, in order not to conflict with 

 the date of the Illinois state meeting 

 at Bloomington and the Iowa state 

 meeting at Ames. W. G.
