Insure Your Crops 



No matter what you grow, your crops will bring good prices. Don't take a chance on losing 

 this profit. Insure your crops. The best insurance is 



Advance Ventilating Equipment 



Don't listen to talk of a substitute. Investigate for yourself. You are a practical grower. Don't 

 take our word for it. We don't want you to. We want you to be your own judge, but if someone has 

 borrowed your Advance Catalogue send for another. 



Remember our complete line of Greenhouse Fittings, which are such an assistance to you in doing 

 your fall repair work. We have a fitting for each requirement. Write today.

TORONTO, ONT. 



The Market. 



There is continued demand for flowers, 

 especially for design work. There has 

 also been consid^able corsage work and 

 decoration work for weddings. The 

 shortage of stock is the worst trouble 

 at the present time. No asters of any 

 account are available, so that medium- 

 priced pieces are hard to make up. 



Koses are scarce, but are becoming 

 more plentiful. Carnations, also, are 

 scarce, with the prices advancing. In 

 fact, there is an upward trend of prices 

 all along the line. With the large in- 

 crease in glass area of all the growers 

 around Toronto, the growing market for 

 flowers should be partially met. 



_ Various Notes. 



Dunlop's is going ahead with another 

 house, to be completed this year. 



Nearby the Bedford Park Florists have 

 the stakes in for their first greenhouse 

 at Richmond Hill. 



Mr. and Mrs. Dunlop and Frank Dun- 

 lop are down in New Jersey looking 

 after the growing of the Dunlop rose, 

 which has had wonderful success. An- 

 nouncement of another new rose by Mr. 

 Dunlop, of another color, but probably 

 with as good keeping qualities, will be 

 made before long. 



The Toronto Retail Florists' Club held 

 its first social evening at its club 

 rooms September 29. A large number 

 of friends were entertained. Mrs. 

 Moore entertained the club at her apart- 

 ment October 6. This month, as the 

 Canadian Thanksgiving day is October 

 13, the business meeting will be com- 

 bined with the social October 27. 



About twenty from Toronto will at- 

 tend the F. T. D. convention in Buf- 

 falo October 14 and 15. In a letter Fred 

 Dicks stated that London, Ont., would 

 also be well represented. There has been 

 a large increase in the F. T. D. mem- 

 bership in Canada recently and several 

 new members will be announced before 

 the convention. 



Mr. Tyrrell, of Edmonton, has been 

 in the city renewing acquaintanceships. 

 He and his brother have stores at Cal- 

 gary and Edmonton, operating under 

 the name of the Tyrrell Floral Co. Busi- 

 ness in the west is good. The advertis- 

 ing of "Say It with Flowers" is mak- 

 ing an increased demand for flowers in 

 western Canada, just as it is in the east.
