The Market. 



The change to cooler weather last 

 •week had a tendency to improve busi- 

 ness. It is still too early, however, for 

 really active demand. When the frosts 

 kill the outdoor flowers there will nat- 

 urally be a much larger demand for 

 flowers from the florists. Several times 

 within the last ten days it has been al- 

 most cold enough for a frost. 



The windows begin to look more in 

 season. For a long time ferns, gladi- 

 oli and asters formed the bulk of the 

 window decorations. Now one sees 

 dahlias, lilies, carnations, etc., with 

 some early chrysanthemums, red hot 

 poker, and others. Carnations are more 

 plentiful, but the quality is still poor. 

 Growers, however, have a large sup- 

 ply of fine, stocky plants, and it will 

 not be long before there will be ample 

 supplies of blooms of the finest qual- 

 ity. Only a limited number of chry- 

 santhemums are in the market, and 

 those not of good quality. The mum 

 season is near, however, and better 

 flowers and the finest varieties will be 

 plentiful. 



There was a considerable amount of 

 funeral work last week. Counter trade 

 is reported somewhat better. 



Various Notes. 



Ernest Kadany, 596 Central avenue, 

 is making repairs to his greenhouses. 

 He reports business a little quiet j'et, 

 but looks for marked improvement af- 

 ter the first frosts. 



F, H, Kuehn, 621 Central avenue, is 

 making an addition to one of his green- 

 houses. Mr. Kuehn, who is situated 

 opposite one of the leading cemeteries 

 of the city, has a large cemetery trade. 



A new firm known as Davis & Davis 

 has leased five greenhouses at Central 

 avenue and Grove street, East Orange, 

 just over the Newark line. Charles* 

 Hornecker is the lessor. The new firm 

 will conduct a wholesale florists' busi- 

 ness. They are building another green- 

 house, 17x100, and are putting in a 

 new heating system. For the winter 

 trade the firm has started with a fine 

 lot of chrysanthemums, carnations, 

 snapdragons and sweet peas. They will 

 handle. bedding plants and perennials. 

 Although Davis & Davis have had pos-
