ENOXVILLE, TENN. 



The Market. 



We have had ideal weather condi- 

 tions for the last week, bright, sun- 

 shiny days and cold nights. Thanks- 

 giving trade was far better than was 

 expected, partly due to the Thanks- 

 giving football game between the Uni- 

 versity of Tennessee and Kentucky 

 State. Orange and white being the 

 U. of T. colors, white and yellow 

 chrysanthemums were in great demand, 

 and everything of these colors was 

 sold. The Kentucky colors, blue and 

 white, were furnished by tying white 

 carnations and chrysanthemums with 

 blue and white ribbon. 



Various Notes. 



The last week has been a good one 

 for A. H. Dailey. Besides having his 

 share of Thanksgiving day business, 

 he has been doing a large amount of 

 funeral work. Boses are fine, and 

 sweet peas are beginning to bloom 

 heavily. Bulb business, which has been 

 fine this year, is beginning to decline. 



Mrs. Rosa Hall Ryno has been turn- 

 ing out an abundance of funeral work 

 the last week. She also had a splendid 

 Thanksgfiving day trade. Her main 

 crop at present is carnations. 



Addison J. McNutt is cutting some 

 of the finest sweet peas ever grown in 

 Knoxville. The orchid-flowering sorts 

 are the largest and most prolific and 

 seem to have made a hit with the 

 public. 



C. W. Crouch reports a heavy Thanks- 



fiving day trade. This, in addition to 

 uneral and wedding work, has kept 

 the force in a continuous rush for the 

 last week. They are cutting large 

 quantities of stock, but not enough to 

 supply the demand at all times. Mr. 

 Crouch, who has been in Louisville, 

 Ky., for some time, has returned home 

 and is preparing to spend the winter 

 in Florida. 



C. L. Baum had a good Thanksgiving 

 day trade. He sold out all yellow and 

 white chrysanthemums and could have 

 sold several hundred more. Chrysan- 

 themums have been fine, but will soon 

 be a thing of the past. Carnations and 

 orchids are blooming in profusion, 

 while roses are only fair. R. E. M.

This Ought to Be OF INTEREST to YOU 



that local gprowers have placed the largest individaal orders for my 

 new Carnation "AIJCE," offered to the trade this season. Some have 

 doubled and trebled their orders on successive visits. 



The color is an exquisite shade of clear, soft pink, midway between En- 

 chantress and Gloriosa. Habit of plant, ideal, strone, very early and a contin- 

 uous and without doubt the most productive commercial variety I have offered 

 to date.
