Thanksgiving Business. 



Despite the heavy rain November 29 

 and Thanksgiving day, business was 

 good and even exceeded all expecta- 

 tions. Chrysanthemums, roses, carna- 

 tions and all other stock sold out, and 

 by the middle of the afternoon choice 

 stock was not available. Mums were 

 called for mostly and were sold at 

 $1.20 to $6 per dozen. The pleasing 

 thing, despite some of the high prices 

 on mums, was that no florist reported 

 any complaints with regard to the cost 

 of these fall beauties. Pompons in all 

 colors and hues, artistically arranged 

 in baskets and vases, took no little part 

 in increasing the sales for the day. 

 Eoses sold from $1 to $3 per dozen for 

 the regular grades, and the better roses, 

 including Beauties, went at $3 to $12 

 per dozen. Carnations brought from 

 60 cents to $1,50 per dozen; narcissi, 

 60 cents. The demand for orchids and 

 valley was surprising. Many artificial 

 wreaths for cemetery purposes were 

 disposed of. 



Various Notes. 



The Scottwood Greenhouse had 

 charge of an elaborate decoration for 

 the grand opening of the Willys-Over- 

 land salesrooms, December 1. 



Harry Heinl, of West Toledo, is cut- 

 ting some good carnations and Ophelia 

 roses. Mr. Heinl can boast of some 

 excellent poinsettias in pans for 

 Christmas. 



Cards have been issued announcing 

 the marriage of Henry Barrow, of John 

 Barrow & Sons, to Miss H. Mushbach. 



Ealph Cushman, of the Cushman 

 Gladiolus Co., Sylvania, was married 

 last week. 



Mrs. Ernest Glouser, wife of Ernest 

 Glouser, foreman at the Hinzel Bros, 

 greenhouses, was taken to St. Vincent's 

 hospital this week for an operation. 



Schramm Bros, have some fine poin- 

 settias for cut flowers coming on for 

 Christmas. 



The large greenhouses of G. Boyer & 

 Son look rather bare since Thanks- 

 giving day. Thousands of Bonnaffon 

 mums were cut and shipped to varicuB 

 markets for that day. G. B. S.
