Gentlemen:— You can strongly and unhesltatlnrly recommend the 

 " Eclipse " piston type reducing valve to florists. We have two purchased 

 of you last year. We would not have them out for double their cost and 

 find them as sensitive as a watch. We will be in Chicagro soon to take up 

 the vacuum system with you. Yours truly,

though conditions warranted more than 

 ever before a day devoted to grateful 

 recognition. Shipping orders supplied 

 the largest part of the demand earlier 

 in the week, but Wednesday the city 

 trade began to affect the market. The 

 dealers and growers have again come to 

 the conclusion that some preparation 

 should be made for this holiday. 



Chrysanthemums were the most in de- 

 mand, and, while the supply was appar- 

 ently plentiful in most grades, all were 

 sold. There was a heavy demand for 

 American Beauty roses, and none too 

 many of these were seen anywhere. 

 There was just about enough tea roses 



to go around, pink being the most sought 

 after. Richmond and Liberty also had 

 a fair call and sold well. Carnations 

 were hardly heavy enough to meet the 

 demands, and many of the stores were 

 sold out by noon. As yet the cut is 

 hardly of sufficient quantity to supply 

 the trade, while quality is good. The 

 prices were not prohibitive in any line, 

 75 cents and $1 per dozen being the 

 ruling price for carnations. Violets were 

 called for later in the day and found 

 ready sale, although the price has ad- 

 vanced, they now selling at from 75 cents 

 to $1.50 per hundred wholesale. 



Some of the larger stores were show- 

 ing poinsettias and azaleas, and the pros- 

 pects are for a good crop of these for 

 the holidays. Narcissus is now coming 

 in, and of fine quality, also stevia.
