for Christmas, and they expect the spe- 

 cials will set a western price record for 

 this variety. 



All the market is keenly interested 

 in the weather just now, but no one is 

 keeping a closer eye on the sun than 

 does Joseph' Foerster. He was at the 

 George Eeinberg plant last Friday and 

 says prospects are good. 



Thomas Knight, of the Julius Koehrs 

 Co., Rutherford, N. J., has been at the 

 Palmer House for a week with a line of 

 samples of Christmas plant's. He reports 

 good business with the leading retailers.

CINCINNATL 



Tlie Market 



One insertion of our advertisement in 

 the Bkview sold all the cinerarias we 

 had ready.— Rat H. Palmer, Randolph, 



TJianksgiving business proved a sur- 

 prise. While we were expecting good 

 business, we were scarcely prepared for 

 the great rush that came on Wednesday. 

 The quantity of flowers that was han- 

 dled in this city on that day was un- 

 doubtedly greater by far than that han- 

 dled on any other similar occasion. Tues- 

 day it looked as if there would be 

 scarcely any extra trade, but Wednes- 

 day showed all that they were mis- 

 taken. Through it all prices did not 

 advance to any great extent. There was 

 some stiffening on carnations and Beau- 

 ties, but outside of that the general run 

 of prices prevailed. This fact tended 

 to increase the business, as Thanksgiving 

 is especially the day of the small buyer 

 taking home a few flowers for the dinner- 

 table or a vase or two about the house. 

 Altogether we have every reason to be 

 well pleased with the business done, and 



from all reports it was generally dis- 

 tributed, so that all had a share of it. 



The days of the mum are now num- 

 bered, and after the great quantities 

 that we have handled this year we are 

 glad to see them go. As a general thing 

 the chrysanthemum sold well this season, 

 and, though it might be said that the 

 prices obtained for them did not aver- 

 age quite as high as former years, 

 still I do not believe that any one will 

 be inclined to kick. It is a fact that in 

 this market there were fewer mums 

 thrown away this year than is usual. 

 All blooms found a buyer at some price, 

 and while at times the price was low, 

 still they were not a total lo.ss. AVe will 

 still have mums, more or less, until after 

 the holidays, but there will be no over- 

 supply of them. Those that come in 

 from now on will be sold at good prices; 

 in fact the man who has the late mums 

 is usually the man who makes the money. 

 At this writing there is not a mum to be 

 had on this market. The retailers have 

 been scouring the various wholesale
