quantity of good flowers coming from 

 indoors, but not nearly enough. 



Some mums are arriving, but few 

 are good. Golden Glow has suffered 

 from insects and weather and the Octo- 

 ber Frosts available are small. Carna- 

 tions are in too small supply to make a 

 noticeable difference. About the only 

 redeeming feature of our present mar-

 looks good. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. Ida Baumgarten and daughter, 

 Gretchen, left September 23 for Al- 

 bany, N. Y., to which point they have

Harry Papworth and his bride stop-

 and plants to meet the numerous de- 

 mands for decorations and trims. Some 

 novel effects are displayed, with bed- 

 ding and garden flowers in the windows. 

 Gustave Pohl has his greenhouses in 

 fine shape for the winter. A couple of 

 houses are planted to stevia, two to 

 mums and the rest to carnations, which 

 show clean growth. 



The retail florists had an exceptional 

 lot of funeral work September 21 and 

 22, most of which was for Theo. Vilter, 

 a well known manufacturer of ice ma- 

 chines. Among the many contributors 

 to the large quantity of flowers was 

 the Fleischman Floral Co., of Chicago, 

 which found it advisable to send a man 

 here with several fine pieces.
