The Market. 



All unusually quiet period was noticed 

 during the first part of last week and 

 business in the stores was practically at 

 a standstill. With the exception of a 

 little funeral work, which created some 

 demand, the wholesale business was par- 

 ticularly quiet. The first real frost of 

 the season was a good one and Wednes- 

 day, October 26, practically everything 

 was blackened. A slight frost the night 

 following just about finished the outdoor 

 stock, except such as was sheltered. Not 

 for many years has the frost held off 

 until such a late date. Stock is reaching 

 us in good supply and is in excellent 

 condition, but tlie poor demand has some- 

 what lowered the prices. Previous to 

 this condition, prices were holding up 

 wonderfully well. Business for Hal- 

 loween, however, showed some change, 

 but the demand was not as large as 

 might be expected. Chrysanthemums arc 

 the most popular of all flowers just now 

 and the supply is becoming larger each 

 day. Of the varieties seen, Oconto and 

 Golden Glow are in the biggest domand. 

 Smith's Advance is almost gone for the 

 season. Extra fine pompons are seen 

 and sell well. Violets, during the few 

 colder days, have been much improved 

 and sell better. Easter and calla lilies 

 are not in big supply, but there is a good 

 demand. Roses are especially ])lcntiful 

 and prices are a little lower. The varie- 

 ties include Ophelia, Columbia, Premier, 

 Ward, Maryland, the Killarnoys, Cru- 

 sader and Butterfly. The sui)ply of 

 orchids and valley is larger than the 

 ilemand at times, but they are generally 

 in good demand. The crop of carnations 

 is gradually on the increase and good 

 stock is seen. Pink varieties are in 

 heavier demand. A few gladioli and cal- 

 endulas are seen, but the supply is lim- 

 ited. Stevia and gypsoi)hila are also 

 seen, but not in any quantity. 



Various Notes. 



Halloween window decorations were 

 much in vogue last week and some ex- 

 ceedingly showy and pleasing displays 

 were seen in all of the downtown stores. 

 Autumn foliage, in its natural state, was 

 iitiod extensively l)y all. 



Pearly winter colds are spreading over 

 the city rapidly and several of the florists 

 have been confined to their homes re- 

 cently. 



The chrysanthemum display at the 

 Lamberton conservatories at this time is
