November 22, 1906. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



Current Comment. 



The bright weather of the last week 

 has succeeded in forcing in a lot of 

 mums, some of the late varieties being 

 from ten days to two weeks ahead of 

 time. Consequently a glut has been ex- 

 perienced. The Tomlinson flower mar- 

 ket presented a brignt appearance Sat- 

 urday morning, there being thousands of 

 blooms exhibited, from the largest to the 

 smallest and in all colors. Eain falling 

 early in the afternoon and getting heav- 

 ier towards night spoiled all chance of a 

 good market day. Carnations are com- 

 ing in greater quantity and quality im- 

 proving every day. The same can also 

 be said of roses. 



Wiegand & Sons have an effective win- 

 dow decoration, one of the prettiest they 

 have ever put up. 



Bertermann Bros, report a large at- 

 tendance at their opening last week, and 

 they certainly deserved it, as they ex- 

 hibited a lot of fine flowers and plants. 



Homer "Wiegand spent a few days in 

 Posey county among the quail and rab- 

 bits. He is one of the champion wing 

 shots among the florists here. 



Visitors this week were: William 

 Walker, of Louisville, Ky. ; Mr. Elver- 

 son, of Pittsburg, and S. M. Harbison, 

 of Danville, Ky. S. 



BALTIMORE. 



The Market 



The flower show last week brought out 

 thousands of visitors and these helped 

 the retailers dispose of surplus stock. 

 There is plenty of design work, as there 

 have been a number of weddings and 

 banquets. Eoses are not as plentiful, 

 while carnations are arriving in large 

 quantities. Violets are still scarce. A 

 great many artificial designs are being 

 made up for the holidays, but there is 

 not much holly to be had. 



There was a glut of chrysanthemums 

 in the market Saturday. 



Various Notes. 



P. B. Welch had the sale of the flow- 

 ers at the show and did fairly well. 



Halliday Bros, made a fine showing of 

 decorative plants at the exhibit. 



N. Gray, Catonsville, has his three 

 houses stocked and ready for business. 



Eobert L. Graham has a fine lot of 

 Harrisii lilies. 



Kirkley & Sons have moved from 

 Iiight street to 906 South Charles street, 

 two doors below Albert Fiedler & Co. 



George Eileigh has a large black dog 

 on the street with a sign marked, "Bich 

 garden soil for sale," The dog also 

 has a hat on, trimmed with lily of the 

 valley. J. L. T.

 State Came to Have a Look at ... . 



pocaHONTas 



He was surprised to see the crop of buds and its general ap- 

 pearance. Said that if it looked as well in January as it did then 

 he wonld want a good lot of it. Said he has been worrying along 

 with Fenn for want of something better in quality. Many other 

 growers are having the same experience, and all such should come 

 and see Pocahontas. Come any time. It is never cS crop.
