titles daily. Weddings are many and 

 every retailer seems to get his share of 

 them. The wild smilax is the ground- 

 work of every decoration. Its popularity 

 grows with each succeeding year, ivic- 

 Connell had an elaborate affair at Har- 

 rison, N. Y., last week, the . Stursberg- 

 Downey wedding. Fifty enormous palms 

 were used. The mansion of the bride 

 was a bower of Beauties, with a profu- 

 sion of specimen pink, white and yellow 

 mums. Killarney, too, was a feature, 

 and unique effects were many. Every- 

 thing now in decoration tends to the 

 unique and original in artistic results, 

 and more and more intellectual designing 

 and effect win practical appreciation. In 

 other words, the man who demonstrates 

 braininess is the man who wins a per- 

 manent place and gratifying remunera- 

 tion. 



This is horse show week here, and Chi- 

 cago knows what that means to the flor- 

 ist, though in the east its influence seems 

 to have gone backward. It may be bet- 

 ter this season. The weather of the week 

 opens with a rain after days of sun- 



shine and almost summer temperature. 

 It is rapidly growing colder. 



Some extra fine narcissi and cypripe- 

 diums are being shipped to J. K. Allen. 



It is hard to realize that in less than 

 five weeks Christmas will be here. Won- 

 derful novelties there are with the sup- 

 ply men this season. Some of them 

 must be seen to be appreciated, and no 

 time should be lost in laying in the 

 stock in advance of the rush that will 

 soon materialize. 



At the norse show orchids will doubt- 

 less this year be the thing, though the 

 scarcity of violets may, by their very in- 

 crease in value, turn the society eyes 

 towards its old-time favorite. Of course 

 the Doutonnieres will oe gardenias. 



Both cities are now teaching the mul- 

 titudes an object lesson in the annual 

 mum shows in New York and Brooklyn 

 park conservatories. Great crowds have 

 been in evidence. The suburban florists, 

 too, have splendid exhibitions of their 

 own. All are free and the general inter- 

 est has been encouraging. But it will 

 take an expert prophet to foretell >when 



New York will have a flower show equal 

 to Chicago 's wonder of last week, though 

 don't forget it. New York can do it 

 when it gets "good and ready." 



It is an inspiration to walk from 

 Twenty-third street to Seventy-second 

 on Broadway, Fifth, Sixth and Madison 

 avenues and see the wonderfully beauti- 

 ful effects in every florists' window. 

 Space forbids specification. Where any 

 ability or artistic sense prevails the 

 array is most seductive. In fact, the 

 public shows its appreciation in the 

 crowds that surround these dreams in 

 color and arrangement. 



The evergyeening of the city con- 

 tinues. Bays, box and ivy make all the 

 great hotels attractive in their ap- 

 proaches, outdoor balconies and halls. 

 Never has such universal use been made 

 of the nurseryman's supply. Local 

 growers and enterprising importers in 

 the wholesale district all profit by this 

 addition to public demand and its uni- 

 versality demonstrates the influence of 

 persistent effort. Slowly but surely the 

 nurseiymen have taught the possibility
