JBouvardia is of good quality, but the 

 Icolored varieties sell rather slowly. Cat- 

 Itleya labiata is abundant and cheaper. 

 IThere is a good supply of oncidiums and 

 Icypripediums. The demand for aspara- 

 jgus continues fairly good and there is 

 Ian improved call for potted plants. 

 I Chrysanthemums are now good and 

 Inicely flowered cyclamens, begonias and 

 IPrimula obconica are offered. There 

 ■also are berried solanums and a fine as- 

 portment of crotons. 



Various Notes. 



I i.^4°'^® Ellsworth Comley, second son 

 lot Henry R. Comley, the Park street 

 l^R^^^h ^T"">^ed safely in France October 

 1^0. He 18 an instructor in aviation re- 



pair work. Mr. Comley 's eldest son is

states that October business reached 

 the highest figures of any month 

 since the firm started in business. So 

 tremendous was the call for wire frames 

 that orders could only be partially filled 

 with a large staff working overtime 

 making them. 



Henry Penn gave a most interesting 

 address before the students of the Bur- 

 dett Business College October 29. He 

 spoke on the conservation of flowers, 

 its uses and abuses, and gave practical 

 demonstrations through assistants of 

 how to arrange flowers artistically. His 

 address was listened to with great in- 

 terest. September business at the Penn 

 store was more than double that of a 

 year ago and October business was
