was excellent and kept all hands busy. 



The fine open weather experienced 

 throughout November proved excellent 

 for the sale of bulbs for outdoor plant- 

 ing and stocks at all the seed stores 

 now are practically exhausted. 



Welch Bros. Co. reports a satisfactory 

 Thanksgiving business, although ship- 

 ping orders would have been larger but 

 for the high price of flowers. 



John I, Gale, of Tewksbury, is a suc- 

 cessful grower of yellow marguerites 

 in winter and for some weeks has been 

 cutting quantities of flowers which have 

 sold as high as $4 per hundred. The 

 supply of this popular flower promises 

 to be much reduced here this winter. 



Robert Capers, son of Thomas Capers, 

 of Wellesley Hills, who served for some 

 months with the American army in 

 France, has been invalided homo and is 

 at present ill with double pneumonia 

 in a hospital at Newport News. 



November proved to be warmer than 

 normal. The mean temperature was 

 41% degrees against 34% degrees in 

 November, 1917, which proved to be an 

 exceptionally cold month. Precipita- 

 tion was extremely light this year. The 

 first snowfall occurred December 1. 



Among new corporations listed here 

 during November is the L. J. Renter Co., 

 plant brokers, with present offices at 

 Waverley, Oak road, Waltham. The 

 new concern will deal in all kinds of 

 plants and supplies, specializing in 

 trees, plants and bulbs. L. J. Renter, 

 head of the new firm, is the son of the 

 late S. J. Renter, of Westerly, R. I. 

 He recently was with Peirce Bros., Wal- 

 tham, and is well known to the local 

 trade.
