The Market. 



Business conditions showed consid- 

 erable improvement last week, although 

 good flowers are scarce. Carnations 

 are getting better and can be had in 

 all colors. My Maryland, Golden Gate, 

 Bride and Mrs. Aaron Ward roses are 

 good and we find enough to go the 

 rounds. Chrysanthemums are arriving 

 in fine shape, three colors: Smith's Ad- 

 vance, Golden Glow and Unaka. These 

 varieties are all ready sellers and it 

 gives the retailers a chance to make a 

 display of mums in both the shop and 

 window. Good dahlias are scarce, as 

 most of the flowers coming in are 

 brown on the backs. 



Various Notes. 



Albert M. Herr is cutting some good 

 carnations and the plants all look 

 strong and healthy. The varieties are 

 Beacon, White Enchantress and Bo- 

 sette. 



Kudolph Nagel is cutting the best 

 mums in this section. His Unaka are 

 fine, large flowers, with good foliage 

 and 4-foot stems. Chrysolora also is 

 looking good and the buds are showing 

 color. 



Schroyer's windows are neatly ar- 

 ranged, with fancy ferns and plants 

 of auratum lilies. He is cutting some 

 good carnations. 



The Eosery has one display window 

 filled with dahlias, the other with nov- 

 elty twig baskets containing air plant, 

 etc. 



Frank A. Suter is cutting heavily of 

 dahlias, the cactus varieties proving 

 ready sellers. 



The Keystone Nurseries, of B. F. Barr 

 & Co., have been kept busy during the 

 month of September, with landscape 

 work.
