Look Ahead for Thanksgiving 



YOU WILL WANT THESE FAVORS. 



BlUO Delft Imperial Ware^ never shown before. Little vases, 

 fern dishes, square, oblong and ronnd; distinctive shapes; no other ware compares 

 with it. These new China favors are simply irresistible and are excellent for 

 Thanksgiving. 



DrOlVllieSy all styles, for Thanksgiving favors. These are smart and 

 novel; nothing dusty about them.

The Market. 



The heavy frost of last week was 

 welcomed by the trade, as it killed off 

 the dahlia crop. This has put trade 

 into a more normal condition, and busi- 

 ness ia better than it has been for some 

 time. Wedding decorations are now 

 beginning to keep the florists busy, 

 and the future seems more hopeful. 



Chrysanthemums are plentiful and 

 |[Ood. Chrysolora at from $1.50 to 

 $2.50 per dozen ia in good demand. 

 White Touset is to be had in, good con- 

 •dition. October Frost and Paciflc Su- 

 M^me are also among the leaders, 

 l^re is quite a demand for carna- 

 tions at from $1 to $3 per hundred. 

 li is said that the growers have been 

 paying so much attention to the pro- 

 duction of chrysanthemums that they 

 kave almost sidetracked carnations, so 

 that it is not so much a case of ex- 

 ceptional demand for this flower as of 

 a shortage in supply. 



lirs. Charles Eussell and Milady, in 

 the rose line, are good sellers at the 

 present time. There is plenty of val- 

 ley to be had at $3 and $4. Gardenias 

 are scarce and not obtainable in quan- 

 tity; there are just enough cattleyas 

 being received to fill a limited demand 

 at $6 per dozen. Easter lilies are plen- 

 tiful at $10 per hundred. A number of 

 the stores report a heavy sale of Har- 

 risii ferns.
