The Market. 



Stimulated by the cooler weather, 

 business the last week has shown a 

 slight gain and the general sentiment 

 apparently indicates an active demand 

 during the coming season. Some of 

 the finest asters seen this season are 

 being displayed among the late offer- 

 ings and these are giving the few early 

 stort-stemmed carnations, mostly field- 

 grown, that have put in an appearance 

 a hard run. Eoses are making a good 

 showing from the early cuts and nearly 

 all the growers report an encouraging 

 outlook. 



Gladioli are now at their height and 

 it is wonderful what a great stride they 

 have made in popularity during the last 

 few years. Where, a few years ago, a 

 limited number of stray spikes of some- 

 what indifferent quality were to be seen 

 in the stores, now whole window dis- 

 plays are made of gaudy gladioli. 



Various Notes. 



W. A. Bowers, Inc., made a big run 

 on gladioli Saturday, September 10, 

 offering more than 10,000 spikes, the cut 

 from one farm which they com- 

 mandeered. 



Archie Aikens, of the Colonial Flower 

 Shoppe, was a business visitor in Bos- 

 ton last week. 



Mr. and Mrs. Louis Barker, of War- 

 ren, are on a vacation trip by automo- 

 bile over the Mohawk trail and through 

 the Berkshires. 



B. M. Latham is cutting more than 

 500 spikes of gladioli for the Providence 

 market daily. He has more than an 

 acre under cultivation at North Scitu- 

 ate and expects to harvest at least 

 250,000 bulbs. 



Frederick Dietz, of French street, 

 was in New York and vicinity last 

 week. 



S. A. Dawson, representing the Bur- 

 lington Willow Ware Co., of Burling- 

 ton, la., was a caller upon the trade 

 here last week. 



Bowers & Reisnick are getting ready 

 for an early opening of their wholesale 

 department, stock for which is already 

 arriving. 



The Hoxsie Greenhouses, at Hoxsie 

 station, has had its largest cut of glad- 

 ioli in its history this year, running up 

 to several thousand spikes daily. 



Chipman, of Woonsocket, R. I., has 

 been making some radical changes in 

 his office, which has been entirely re- 

 built, with new showcases, icebox and 

 display facilities.
