singles, in yellow, pink and white. The 

 quality has been affected a little by the 

 heat, but the majority of the blooms 

 are splendid. Chrysanthemums have 

 been excellent sellers. The hot weather 

 last week affected trade, but with the 

 cooler weather recently a perceptible 

 difference is noted. 



October has rivaled June, not only in 

 weather, but in the number of wed- 

 dings. The society columns have been 

 lengthy with receptions, parties and 

 weddings and each occasion has de- 

 manded flowers. Corsages, table bou- 

 quets and wedding decorations have 

 been in demand. 



Various Notes. 



Potted chrysanthemums are arriving 

 in large numbers. Jerusalem cherries, 

 begonias and ferns complete the potted 

 plant class. 



Mr. and Mrs. Haney, of Greenfield, 

 were visitors last week. 



Hartje & Elder are cutting some 

 splendid pink, white and yellow pom- 

 pons. 



Herman Junge is home from the hos- 

 pital and is doing nicely. 



William Hamant is the proud father 

 of a baby boy. 



Temperley's have some excellent 

 chrysanthemum plants of the Caprice 

 family just coming into full bloom. 



The posters made by the city school 

 children advertising the F. T. D. have 

 been on display in the public library. 

 One can hardly estimate the amount of 

 advertising received from this display. 

 There was an unusual amount of com- 

 ment upon the excellence of the work. 

 L. E. Hitz, of Madison, Ind., felt that 

 this was such a far-reaching means of 



advertising that he is going to carry on 

 a similar contest in the schools of Mad- 

 ison. 



The November meeting of the Indiana 

 State Florists' Association will be held 

 Monday, November 8, instead of Tues- 

 day, as was previously intended. On 

 Tuesday, Joseph Hill will entertain the 

 Botary Club at his establishment; so, at 

 his request, the meeting will be held 

 Monday. 



Viewegh & Kiefer have completed 

 some extensive boiler repairs. This firm 

 has some promising Christmas stock. 



Mr. and Mrs. A. F. J. Baur motored to 

 Bichmond and spent the week-end with 

 Ik^rs. Baur's father, Frank H. Btein- 

 kamp. 



Baur & Steinkamp have some splen- 

 did seedling chrysanthemums of the 

 large type in bloom.
