mand for flowers was much smaller than 

 now, the Chicago market sold great 

 quantities of long Beauties at Christ- 

 mas, at $10 to $15 per dozen. One 

 Christmas our own house alone sold 

 23,000 Beauties, most of them long. 

 These flowers are not now available in 

 such quantity and their place is taken 

 by the best grade of Premier, Milady, 

 Kussell and Columbia. It is not right to 

 compare present 50-cent and 75-cent 

 roses with 25-cent Killarneys of the old 

 days. Compare them, instead, with the 

 dollar Beauties we used to sell in quan- 

 tity; they go to the same stores and to 

 the same consumers." 



According to the Weather Bureau, 

 November was not a favorable month 

 for the growers. The mean temperature 

 was 1 degree above normal, but, most 

 important, there was only forty-five per 

 cent of the possible number of hours of 

 sunshine, which is three per cent less 

 than the average for November over a 

 series of years. 



A. Miller has returned from a week's 

 visit to customers of the A. B. C. in the 

 vicinity of Cleveland. 



Wendland & Keimel Co., at Elmhurst, 

 pinched out a crop of Premier to throw 

 it right for Christmas. About 7,000 

 plants were so treated and W. J. Keimel 

 estimates they will have about 19,000 

 long-stemmed flowers on them to cut 

 during Christmas week.

 last week. 



Alois Prey is here from California, 

 where he and Mrs. Prey now make their 

 home, near Santa Barbara. Although 

 Mr. Prey is devoting his time to grow- 



ing bulbs in the open, he still owns the 

 famous place at Crown Point, under the 

 management of William Beyer, and has 

 come to look it over. 



A. C. Topp, president of the Gurney
