The Market. 



Owing to a week of bright, warm 

 weather, stock is more plentiful than 

 it was in the jtrevious week. Dahlias 

 have been late, but a fairly good supply 

 is now available. It is feared, however, 

 that frost will get the greater part of 

 tlie crop. Carnations are getting better 

 in quality and higher in price. They are 

 rather limited and in good demand at 

 from $:{ to $r) per liundred. Roses are 

 more plentiful and sell readily at from 

 $'.i to $15 per hundred. 



The summer line has a few straggling 

 lingerers. Of these, gladioli are among 

 the best and make $fi per hundred. 



Chrysanthemums are peeping into the 

 market a few more at a time, but are in 

 no supply as vet. The few available 

 are quickly sold. 



Business has been fairly brisk. The 

 majority of florists have a decidedly 

 optimistic view of the fall and winter 

 season and expect this to be one of the 

 best. 



Various Notes. 



Herman Junge, of the Smith & Young 

 Co., has been taken to the Methodist 

 liospital in a critical condition. 



The regular meeting of the Indiana 

 t-itate Florists' Association was held 

 October 7 at the florists' supply house

The elaborate wreath ]iresented by 

 the United States army recruiting sta- 

 tion for the funeral of Lieutenant Col- 

 onel Ryan, of the VMh Cavalry, was an 

 unusually handsome piece, being made of 

 l>()0 American Beauty roses interspersed 

 with valley and adiantum. The insignia 

 of the Thirteenth Cavalry were made 

 prominent in white roses. It "was forty- 

 two inches wide and stood six and a half 

 feet high. Clarence Greene, of Greene 's 

 Flower Shop, Indianapolis, designed and 

 made the piece, for which he received 

 $114. E. E. T.
