The Market. 



Breaking in between the asters and 

 the chrysanthemums, dahlias have been 

 playing a conspicuous part in the ac- 

 tivities of the market. For the first 

 time the granges and similar associa- 

 tions throughout the state have been 

 holding dahlia exhibitions, with the re- 

 sult that there has been an unusual de- 

 mand for these flowers, especially the 

 light-colored cactus varieties. The ad- 

 vance guard of the chrysanthemums 

 has appeared in good numbers, whites 

 being quite plentiful and retailing from 

 $1.50 up per dozen. The early cuts of 

 carnations are better and roses are 

 showing a decided improvement in 

 quality.

SMALL, READY-MADE 

 GREENHOUSES 



Covered Top and Sides with 



beds 

 and Ctrid-frameft 



With Sunken Path 



With Plant Benches 



These Sunlight Sashes as adjusted on the greenhouses are removable at will. They 

 may be transferred to Cold Frames or Hotbeds and are incomparably superior to all others 

 for such use. 



They are complete in tbemselves. for they have two layers of glass enclosing an 

 air space that is a belter protection than mats and shutters, and does away with buying 

 and using these extra covers, besides, the plants get all the light all the time. and are 

 stronger and earlier, also far more profitable. 



The Sunlight Double-Glazed Sash, as thousands of the best florists and gardeners 

 testify, is simply perfect.
