The Bentzen Floral Co. has a lot of 

 Begonia Gloire de Lorraine in fine bloom

Ed Gerlach, at C. A. Kuehn's, reports 

 a good shipping trade for Thanksgiving. 

 This house is receiving a great lot of

Edwin Denker, of St. Charles, Mo.,

INDIANAPOLIS. 



Thanksgiving proved a good day for 

 the florists of this city. There was a 

 good demand for flowers and prices were 

 satisfactory; of course the chrysanthe- 

 mum was easily first and nearly all were 

 taken. 



From present reports the trade in 

 decorating greens this Christmas will 

 exceed all other years. The Bash Seed 

 Co., the Vale Seed Co. i^d^ Huntington 

 & Page, seedsmen, besides the florists, 

 who always handle greens, are laying in 



large stocks to fill orders. The Bash 

 Seed Co. had a lot of fine holly for 

 Thanksgiving that sold well. 



E. A. Nelson has a nice bench of 

 poinsettias that will be just right for 

 the holidays. He also has a good pink 

 sport of Enchantress. 



The different florists who have stands 

 m the Tomlinson market will shortly 

 have to move, as the building is to be 

 remodeled. They will be back again in 

 a few months in much better q-nrters. 

 S. 



New London, Wis.— E. N. Olson has 

 a well established greenhouse and re- 

 ports business good. He has a bench 

 of Brides and Maids that are scarcely 

 to be equaled. His entire plant is up- 

 to-date and the outlook is excellent. 



Toledo, O. — John Barrows has or- 

 dered a new, up-to-date wagon with rub- 

 ber tires. It will be maroon and pea- 

 green, trimmed black and fine striped in 

 scarlet. He has a fine bench of poinset- 

 tias, some of which are six feet tall.
