Many of the stores had large wed- 

 ding decorations during the week. Oc- 

 tober is said to have averaged far bet- 

 ter than October of any previous year. 

 Despite the fact that such improve- 

 ment is noted, collections are declared 

 to be slow. Funeral work has been 

 exceptionally heavy. The football sea- 

 son is expected to take up a large part 

 of the surplus chrysanthemums and to 

 materially increase their price. 



VarioTis Notes. 



J. Louis Loose, of the Washington 

 Floral Co., is reported to be confined to 

 his home suffering from an attack of 

 the grip. 



A number of attractive Halloween 

 displays were seen at the local stores 

 last week. J. H. Small & Sons had a 

 decoration in one of their windows 

 which depicted Old Mother Goose 

 .astride her broom and equipped with 

 the tall, pointed hat so familiar to the 

 children. The sharp-pointed nose, sup- 

 porting a pair of spectacles, and the 

 cloak which awes the little ones, were 

 not forgotten. The background con- 

 sisted of large palms and huge stand- 

 ards of cornstalks. These brought into 

 prominence the vases of choice chrys- 

 anthemums placed on the sides and in 

 the foreground. A large pile of pump- 

 kins of all sizes and shapes completed 

 the display. 



George C. Shaffer, at Fourteenth and 

 I streets, northwest, had a woodland 

 scene with a background showing a 

 rustic fence. In the center were pump- 

 kins, hollowed to serve as receptacles 

 for daisies and chrysanthemums. Vases 

 of chrysanthemums and handsomely 

 colored oak foliage gave color to the 

 scene. 



The Washington Floral Co. is receiv- 

 ing, from its houses at Alexandria, some 

 good Double White Killamey roses. 

 Mrs. George Shawyer and Mrs. Russell 

 are exceptionally good. C. L. L.

Tbe Market. 



Business continues to improve and 

 stock is plentiful. We have had no 

 rain for some time and it is warmer 

 than usual at this time of the year, 

 making it harder to handle the stock 

 satisfactorily. This is especially true 

 of chrysanthemums with heavy foliage. 



VarlouB Notes. 



The trade last week has been called 

 upon by the following: Joseph Marks, 

 representing the A. A. Arnold Paper 

 Box Co., Chicago; A. W. Herre, of the
