Thanksgiving Baskets 



1290-6 



We are in the position of a florists' barometer with 

 regard to popular supplies. We think baskets will be 

 largely used at Thanksgiving. The very wide oval 

 handle baskets for big chrysanthemums and small han- 

 dle baskets for pompons are likely favorites. 



THE FERNERY 



The first thing that every flower buyer wants at 

 the beginning of the season. A stock of smart Fern 

 Dishes, tastefully filled, encourages business. We have 

 a good assortment of the best ferneries, jardinieres.etc. 



It is our aim to supply your every want. We ask the 

 chance.

We Should Worry 



You need not worry if Immor- 

 telles cost $1.00 per bunch. Neidinger's 

 Original Japanese Frieze Chenille is a 



substitute that can be used in place 

 of Immortelles without the substitu- 

 tion being noticed. 



This is one of the many Neidinger 

 Useful Oritinalities. The enormous in- 

 crease in the price of Immortelles 

 put Neidinger on the lookout for a 

 substitute and here it is.

 taining 60 yards each, price per

and what not, with telling effect. The 

 decorations were a credit to J. J. Hab-

Various Notes. 



The regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club was held November 4. Eoutine 

 business was transacted. 



The M. Rice Co. reports heavy or- 

 ders for paper cape flowers, the largest 

 ever received. This is due to the sear- 

 ''ity and the high price of immortelles. 

 A feature of the showcase is blooming 

 bromus delicately tinted. 



Fred Sadling, who is with Edward 

 Keid, is in the German hospital, suf- 

 fering with a broken arm, the result 

 of a fall last week. 



Berger Bros, put a Kissel Kar on the 

 street November 4. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. are handling 

 tremendous shipmenTs from abroad this 

 ^\'eek. Many cases of immortelles were 

 reshipped direct from the wharf to 

 their customers. 



The Century Flower Shop has put 

 11 new Ford, car into commission. It 



is finished in yellow, the Century color, 

 and bears the name of the proprietor 

 on a modest plate. 



Two bunches of dahlias ornamented 

 the desk of J. Otto Thilow and George 

 D. Clark, one on either side of the en- 

 trance to Henry A. Dreer's door. They 

 were put there just before the killing 

 frost at Riverton. 



Henry C. Heilemann has closed his 

 store at 5613 Germantown avenue. He 

 has sold his lease. His stock and fix- 

 tures will be sold at auction November 

 6. Mr. Heilemann expects, to joi^ his 

 father in another business. 



Joseph G. Neidinger is making a spe- 

 cialty of beautifully prepared wreaths 

 intended especially for florists who 

 have been making their own. There 

 are many styles, with oak and mag- 

 nolia foliage as the groundwork, deco- 

 rated with poinsettia, dianagrass, iso- 

 lepis, cones, etc. 



The Johnson Seed Co. reports en- 

 couraging business conditions. 



Paul F. Kichter is busy on catalogue 

 work. '• 



Paul Berkowitz spent several days 

 in New York last week. He found 

 that while the season has barely 

 opened, prospects are excellent. There 

 is already a shortage in some lines. 



Godfrey Aschmann has purchased a 

 lot at the northeast corner of Tenth 

 and Ontario streets. Its size is 75 x 46 

 feet, three building lots. 



Charles Henry Fox has put a hand- 

 some new car on the street. Phil. 



ROCHESTEE, N. Y. 



The Market. 



The weather has been extremely un- 

 pleasant most of the week and busi- 

 ness has not been any too brisk. To- 

 wards Thursday and Friday business 

 began to improve. Flowers for Hal- 

 lowe 'en are becoming a real necessity 

 and there was quite a siege for yel- 

 low pompons and the larger varieties. 

 However, our local growers supplied 

 our needs in a generous way, as well 

 as furnishing a surplus stock. There
