ENOXVILLE, TENINT. 



The Market. 



Weather conditions as a whole were 

 favorable for Christmas. Stock of all 

 kinds was scarce. The following plants 

 were shown: Poinsettiaa, cyclamens, 

 begonias, narcissi and a great number 

 of made-up plant baskets, some of late 

 chrysanthemums, which sold well at 

 $2 to $15 each. Cut flower prices were 

 as follows: Boses, $3 to $10 per dozen; 

 carnations, $2.50 to $4 per dozen; Paper 

 Whites, $1.50 and $2 per dozen; Yellow 

 Paper Whites, $3 per dozen; Bomans, 

 $1.50 to $2; stevia, $1 to $1.50 per dozen; 

 orchids, $2 each. There were no Amer- 

 ican Beauties on this market this year, 

 but Bussell and Columbia sold for no less 

 than $6 per dozen; fine sweet peas from 

 $3 to $5 per hundred. Orders came in 

 earlier than last year and deliveries were 

 made. Holly and mistletoe were plenti- 

 ful, but prices remained high. The holly 

 was good, but the mistletoe is short of 

 berries. Christmas trees were high this 

 year, prices rang^ing from 75 cents to 

 $5 each. 



Various Notes. 



A. H. Dailey is showing some choice 

 sweet peas and looks for a heavy de- 

 mand for them. 



A. J. McNutt cut choice Bussell and 

 Ophelia roses for the Christmas trade. 

 He did not have nearly enough to go 

 around, but made the best of them. Mrs. 

 Ella Angus, with Mr. McNutt, was called 

 to Youngstown, O., on account of the 

 serious illness of her brother. Her ab- 

 sence crippled his force to some extent. 



Mrs. Bosa Hall Byno had fine plant 

 baskets for Christmas. Located at the 

 new Gray cemetery, she had a big de- 

 mand for wreaths, etc., for grave decora- 

 tion. 



Baum 's Home of Flowers, Inc., showed 

 choice, made-up plant baskets of chrys- 

 anthemums, cyclamens, cherries, peppers 

 and ferns, which sold rapidly; also 

 choice Columbia and Bussell roses, or- 

 chids and carnations, but only a third 

 as many as last year. The higher prices 

 made up the difference, however. 



K. P. B. 



Saranac Lake, N. Y. — ^Edmund C. 

 Horton is the son of E. S. Horton, 

 florist and market gardener. Last year 

 he took the course in floriculture at 

 Cornell University and since then has 

 been engaged in assisting his father in 

 the business. His recreation is hunting 

 and his spare time is spent at a camp in, 

 the Saw Tooth range of mountains. On 

 a recent trip he shot a 200-pound buck, 

 which he brought out of the woods eight 

 miles on foot and five miles by water.
