by the other surroundings for the 

 beauty of Mr. Bidenour's store win- 

 dows and store. They set a high stand- 

 ard for the neighborhood. 



Edward Towill has a number of in- 

 teresting rose seedlings in bud.

 in producing something extra fine in 

 chrysanthemums. 



W. H. Ferguson has a handsome show 

 window filled with Thanksgiving 

 baskets. 



The florists' supply business is a 

 pretty safe barometer of what is com- 

 ing to the florists. The supply houses 

 have never been so busy as they are" 

 now. 



8. J. Renter, head of the firm of S. J. 

 Beuter & Son, Westerly, E. I., died at

The season of the year now has been 

 reached when, so far as the fiower busi- 

 ness is concerned, it is the chrysanthe- 

 mum or nothing. Of course, that is ex- 

 pressing the situation rather extrava- 

 gantly, but it hits pretty nearly the 

 truth. In another fortnight, however, 

 roses, violets, carnations and orchids 

 again will resume their sway. The de- 

 mand for mums this year has been un- 

 usually large, although the call has 

 been for blooms retailing for about $1 

 per dozen. The holiday greens give 

 notice of the rapidly approaching holi- 

 day and preparations are being made 

 to meet the call for potted stock. 

 Prices hold well and there is a plentiful 

 supply of everything.
