The Market. 



Cold weather has come at last, and 

 with it a revival of business. It came 

 with a spurt and has kept the trade 

 more than busy since its advent. Ee- 

 ceptions and parties are numerous, and 

 the out of town demand so great as to 

 cause a scarcity of parnations, particu- 

 larly white. There is very little call for 

 red as compared with white and light 

 pink. Lawson also is a favorite, Boses 

 are in crop and equal to all demands, 

 unless it is Beauties, which are off crop 



and scarce. Carnations still are short of 

 stem and inclined to be a bit soft, and j 

 with some of the growers pretty small 

 flowers. Edses are of better quality all 

 around. Mums have made their appear- 

 ance. Cross is cutting Monrovia, yel- 

 low, and Crabb & Hunter some fine 

 palms, white. In about a week there ^ 

 will l^ in a general crop of Polly roses, 

 Kalb, October Sunshine and others. There 

 are a few single violets being picked, and 

 as a whole the violet crop seems prom- 

 ising. We have had no hard frost yet 

 and salvia and geraniums still are in 

 fine condition. 



Paul Gaebel, 73 years old, was buried 

 October 8 from his home, 1090 Hall 

 street. He came to Grand Kapids about ,, 

 twenty-two years ago, starting in the 

 business on Fuiton street, next to the 

 cemetery, later removing to Hall street, 

 adjoining Oak Hill and Valley City ceme- ' 

 teries. He built up a *fine trade and was 

 respected by all who knew him. He is 

 survived by his wife and four sons. 

 Eugene is superintendent of Oak Hill 

 and Valley City cemeteries. Frank has 

 a greenhouse plant of his own in War- 

 saw, Ind., while Max a.nd Charles live 

 at home. G. F. C. 



STEKMER SAILINGS. 



Steamer orders are not anywhere near 

 so numerous in winter as in summer, but 

 there is considerable travel to southern 

 countries and it is worth while occa- 

 sionally to remind your customers that 

 you can deliver flowers by telegraph to 

 friends sailing for the Mediterranean, or 

 elsewhere. Here are some early sailings :

 Chicago Carnation Co. ever since it was 

 established, has been in charge since

New York, N. Y.— The Board of Gen- 

 eral Appraisers has sustained the protest 

 of the Missouri Botanical Gardens, at 

 St. Louis, and admitted duty free cer- 

 tain plants on which the St. Louis ap- 

 praisers had imposed twenty-five per cent 

 duty. The law provides for free ad- 

 mission for specimens for scientific 

 public collections.
