iirc long, the culyx is pcrt'oct ami there 

 is niucli body to the flower. Miitchloss 

 is also {>rowii here and looks well, l)ut it 

 did not compare with Thomas (,'. Jo,^ in 

 any respect. The latter surely looks like 

 a winner. 



Laddie is grown here in considerable 

 miniliers an<l quite tine it is. There were 

 smaller lots of Hope Henshaw and one 

 or two others of the newer varieties. 

 Aviator is grown as a scarlet and it cer- 

 tainly was a mass of blooms and buds. 

 Natalie, a new intermediate pink, is a 

 line, free bloomer. Mr. Patten remarked 

 that Joy seemed spider-proof; at least, 

 he liad not found any spiders on it as 

 yet. New concrete beds are taking the 

 place of raised wooden benches for all 

 carnations here. 



A fine house of callas held over 8,000 

 pots and already they are a fine sight. 

 Adiantum Croweanum and cuneatum 

 in beds were splendid. Yellow mar- 

 guerites occupied a couple of beds. 

 Everything hero is as spick-and-span as 

 on a private estate and showed high 

 cultural skill. Harold J. Patten had 

 good training under his father, M. A. 

 Patten, who now lives mostly in the 

 more balmy climate of Lakeland, Fla., 

 and the fine block of greenhouses here 

 certainly never contained a better lot 

 of stock. W. N. C.

The Market. 



Local bu.siness was slow last week. 

 It may be that we are beginning to feel 

 the general slackening of all business in 

 the trade, but more than likely the un- 

 seasonably warm weather is mostly 

 responsible. Shippers have done better, 

 however. In spite of the small local 

 demand, growers have suffered little loss, 

 their loss being principally in mums. 

 With the passing of Thanksgiving and 

 mums, a shortage of cut stock may be 

 expected until after the holidays. Roses 

 at present are scarce, owing to pinching 

 for the liolidays. Scott Key, always 

 much in deman<l. is especially scarce. 

 At no time this fall have carnations been 

 plentiful, and colder weather is expected 

 to shorten the supply of these soon. 

 Sweet peas, violets, etc., arc coming in 

 more heavily and are of better quality. 

 Fine cyclamens, begonias and ferns can 

 be had now.

The Market. 



I^ast week was worse than the Aveek 

 previous. The market was Hooded with 

 seasonable flowers of all kinds, especially 

 with chrysanthemums. Pomjions are in 

 heavy supply, l)ut hard to move. We 

 have had no killing frosts and no snow.

 $2.50 per dozen for the best from the 

 growers. Heavy cuttings of Bonnaffon, 

 Morgan, Marigold, Chieftain, Eager,

Roses have fallen off and the growers 

 are cleaning up daily at $5 and $6 per 

 hundred. Eightcen-inch Premier and
