The Market. 



Thanksgiving week brought the 

 queen of autumn into the full glory 

 of its sway and everywhere the chrys- 

 anthemum was the dominant feature 

 of decorations. The football game at 

 Brown with the Carlisle Indians in- 

 creased the demand for the big blooms 

 and caused considerable hustling 

 among the florists. There was a gen- 

 eral clean-up, and on all sides were 

 heard reports of good business. Hoses, 

 carnations, Paper Whites, bouvardias, 

 orchids and valley all came in for 

 recognition and prices were practically 

 normal. 



Various Notes. 



The Hampden Meadows Green- 

 houses have had an unusually good cut

 ducers.
