IhfSlPERIOR 



IMPROVED INTERNAL-riRED STEEL BOILER 



Made in 10 sizes, to heat from 2000 to 6500 feet of 4- inch pipe. 

 No brick-woik necessary; shipped on skids, all ready to move into 

 place and begin firing. Can be cleaned without letting the fire out. 

 All hubs made so they can be used for either cast-iron or steam pipe. 

 Tested at 25 lbs. pressure and warranted} can be used for low pressure 

 steam by adding steam drum. Best material) best workmanship. 

 SpedsUIy designed for greenhouse use) corrects the faults of other boilers. 

 Lightest boiler on the market capable of performing equal work. We 

 defy competition in prices on any boiler of equal capacity. 

 Investigate. Send for new illustrated catalogue, just out.

Current Comment. 



Trade is about as usual, with a fairly 

 good supply of flowers on hand. Car- 

 nations are doing finely and are throw- 

 ing up lots of buds for future bloom. 

 They are bringing from 35 to 50 cents 

 per dozen retail. Some nice Winsor car- 

 nations are now coming in. This is a 

 grand variety. 



Alice Byron and other midseason vari- 

 eties of mums are now in full bloom. 

 They are bringing from $1 to $2 per 

 dozen retail. There will be quite a few 

 Jeanne Nonin and other late varieties 

 for Thanksgiving day. Nonin is a great 

 favorite in this section. 



Roses are now coming in of good 

 quality. They bring $1.50 per dozen 

 retail. Violets are going rather slowly 

 just now; 50 cents to $1 per hundred 

 retail is the price asked. 



All flowers outdoors arc now practi- 

 cally gone, and steady firing at nights 

 is now the rule. 



Fred Reynolds, formerly with Nofftz, 

 the William street florist, has started a 

 flower store on Water street, at the south 

 end. 



R. H. Woodhouse will, have some nice 

 mums for Thanksgiving. His carnations 

 are doing finely. 



William Mosher, on North street, is 

 operating the greenhouses formerly owned 

 by William Kroober, who is now some- 

 where in Virginia. 



Bulb potting is now the order of the 

 day. W. L.

Gentlemen:— You can Biroo^ly and unheeltatlDirly recommend the 

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

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

 find them as sensitive as a watch. We will be In Chicago soon to take up 

 the vacuum system with you. Yours truly,
