KNOXVILLE, TENN. 



Tlie Market. 



The weather was fair and pleasant 

 until the end of last week, when it 

 turned cool, with a little frost of morn- 

 ings, but not enough to do any damage. 

 It was necessary to fire two or three 

 nights. 



Business has been quiet for October. 

 Wedding work is plentiful, but funeral 

 work has been rather slack. Stock 

 is plentiful and the quality is improv- 

 ing as the weather becomes cooler. 

 Boses are much better than those of 

 two or three weeks ago. Carnations are 

 fair, though the stems still are short. 

 Chrysanthemums are beginning to come 

 in and, if nothing' happens, the crop 

 will be much larger and better than 

 ever before. 



Various Notes. 



C. W. Crouch is cutting some extra 

 fine Beauties for the season of the year, 

 as well as a large crop of other roses. 

 His chrysanthemums are good and the 

 crop is heavy. 



A. H. Dailey soon will occupy a new 

 branch store on North Gay street, near 

 the Southern depot. This has the prom- 

 ise of being a good location, as it is 

 a busy center and is quite a distance 

 from any other flower shop. 



Mrs. W. R. Ryno is receiving a large 

 number of wedding orders, which keep 

 her busy. She recently installed a 

 new boiler. 



Addison J. McNutt is cutting about 

 the best carnations in the city. His 

 crop of snapdragons is good.
