A fine Thanksgiving business was re- 

 ported by all the florists and in future 

 years some cooperative advertising will 

 help a great deal on this date. Flowers 

 in the future should have a place of 

 Iironiinenco on this day. A run on 

 cemetery wreaths was reported on this 

 day, which is something unusual. 



The windows here are taking on a 

 ••right holiday appearance, with the near 

 approach of Christmas, and the people 

 <"ire getting their different supplies early.

The Market. 



The Christmas business promises 

 well; not a wholesaler in this market 

 has the least fear that he will not clean 

 up well. Advance orders have been 

 heavy and placed early, but stock will 

 be plentiful. The rose crop is just right 

 and of splendid quality, but carnations 

 will be scare and, consequently, high. 

 Plants of all kinds for the season are 

 of the best and there will he enough of 

 them. The wholesale situation is bright, 

 as the admonition to shop early has been 

 taken literally and overworked. Never 



has so much flower shopping been done 

 as there has been this year. The look- 

 ing around began early in November. 

 What each florist offers in the way of 

 merchandise and novelties is known, to- 

 gether with the price, to a great number 

 of persons, for they have made the 

 rounds. Buying has been postponed 

 until the last week and probably will 

 be until the last of the week. Flowers 

 are the last thing to be bought. The 

 real spirit of buying does not show it- 

 self until Christmas eve and those who 

 have flowers in mind as a gift reserve 

 enough money to spend for something 

 good in this line. The most optimistic 

 florists believe that they will have good 

 trade.
