week ago. Violets hold their own, when 

 they are perfect. A lot of inferior stock 

 comes in and gets what it deserves. But 

 good violets begin to be appreciated once 

 more and the tendency of values is up- 

 wards. Of other cut flow^ers, including 

 valley, the orchid and gardenia, the No- 

 vember weddings and the society events, 

 the horse show, the auto shows and the 

 <]inners in honor of duchesses and 

 l^rinces, will hold these steady, whatever 

 betides. The crop of millionaires is 

 large and the few who have lost their 

 tail feathers in the slump will soon be

 bright side of things again. 



Thankfsiving Prospect 



Ford Bros, gave me their list of mum 

 arrivals October 28 and they included 

 Halliday, Touset, Appleton, Alice Byron, 

 Coombes, Ivory, Bonnaffon, Bobinson

 market. The prospect for a Thanksgiv- 

 ing shipping trade was never brighter, 

 for out-of-town retailers close to New 



York are doing the biggest business on 

 record. If the volume of sales in the 

 city is lessened by prevailing conditions, 

 it must be recognized that business, in 

 general, in the cities of the state and 

 Jersey and New England give no e^- 

 dence of lessened enterprise and believe 

 in a continuation of the era of pros- 

 perity. 



Various Notes. 



Many of the retailers had their money 

 in the banks that closed their doors last 

 week. The wholesale contingent was 

 more fortunate. One or two had de- 

 posits with the Knickerbocker or the 

 Lincoln, but the majority will suffer no
