New Coleus Harding 



HARDING COLEUS is the most beautiful 

 and brilliant color ever introduced to the 

 trade. Bright red leaves, with brown, green 

 and yellow edging; medium large leaves. 

 Grows very rapidly and is very easily rooted. 



HARDING COLEUS makes fine pot plants 

 for winter, as it holds its color wonderfully 

 during the winter months. 



HARDING COLEUS. for outside bedding 



HARDING COLEUS is a seedling found 

 by us, grown and tested before introducing it, 

 which has proved to be as described above. 



HARDING COLEUS was shown at the 

 Washington, D. C, S. A. F. Convention, where 

 an Award of High Merit was recommended 

 by the judges, A. L. Miller, J. A. Peterson and 

 Joseph Kohout.

The Market. 



Flowers continue to be greatly in 

 excess of the demand. As is usual at 

 this time of year, stock is plentiful and, 

 since the demand is slow, the stock ac- 

 cumulates on the market. Chrysanthe- 

 mums of all varieties are numerous. 

 Spray and pompon varieties sell more 

 readily than large varieties. The 

 former range from 50 cents to $2 per 

 bunch. Large types are not bringing 

 the price of previous years. Good 

 blooms are bringing from $2 to $5 per 

 dozen. Good Betsy Eoss are bringing $5 

 per dozen. The average price on Turner 

 is from $4 to $6 per dozen, although some 

 extra fine ones bring $7.50 per dozen. 



Eoses are plentiful at from $4 per 

 hundred up. Sales have been slow. Car- 

 nations have dropped in price to $2.50 to 

 $4 per hundred. Laddie brings $5 per 

 hundred. In spite of its being chrysan- 

 themum season, carnations have been 

 selling well. Tlie drop in price was re- 

 cent. 



Potted plants are better in variety 

 now. Chrysanthemum plants, cherries, 

 primroses, begonias and ferns are on dis- 

 play. 



Business has improved over that of a 

 week ago and the majority entertain an 

 optimistic viewpoint. It is felt that the 

 worst lethargy is over. 



Various Notes. 



A. F. J. Baur and Edward Larsen took 

 several seedling varieties of chrysanthe- 

 mums to Chicago for exhibition at the 

 Chrysanthemum Society of America 

 show, November 16 and 17. 



Mr. Williams, of Crawfordsville, who 

 purchased the Arno Nehrling establish- 

 ment, was in the city last week. 



Irwin Bertermann and Martin Nelson 

 were in Eichmond, Ind., last week, visit- 

 ing the various greenhouses. 



William Cluse, of Anderson, and 

 William Eoepke, of Indianapolis, were 

 recently taken through the Scottish Eite 

 lodge and the Shrine. 



Several local florists feel that some co- 

 operative advertisement for Thanksgiv- 

 ing day would be of great benefit to the 

 trade. E. E. T.

 pares, tests and draws his 

 conclusions on advantages, 

 neatness, strongness and dur- 

 ability. That's the reason they
