Decehbeh 5, 1007. 



IhfSlPERIOR 



IMPROVED INTERNAL-FIRED STEEL BOILER 



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

 No brick-wotk oecessary; 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. 

 Specially 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.

State of Trade. 



Trade has been good for the last two 

 weeks. Thanksgiving trade was satisfac- 

 tory all around, from all reports. While 

 roses and carnations moved rather slowly 

 in the early part of the game, there was 

 a good demand at the last hour. But 

 mums held full sway over everything and 

 they are pretty well cleaned out, with 

 the exception of a few late varieties. 

 Roses, carnations and violets are coming 

 on fine and since the bulk of the mums 

 is gone there is hardly enough stock to 

 supply the demand. 



The stores are beginning to take on 

 their Christmas garments and there are 

 plenty of paper bells to be seen in the 

 windows at this early date. 



Various Notes. 



The Florists' Club held its regular 

 meeting Tuesday, November 26. The new 

 officers took their chairs, as follows: 

 President, R. A. Currie; vice-president, 

 C. P. Torrey; secretary, James McKel- 

 lar; treasurer, Jacob Reichert. Messrs. 

 McKellar, Torrey, Metzmaier, Hills and 

 Bauman were appointed to arrange 

 some sort of an entertainment for each 

 meeting and there will be something 

 doing in the near future. After the 

 meeting adjourned the members tried 

 their strong arms at bowling. The high 

 scores were made by Reichert, McKellar, 

 Currie and Metzmaier. The boys are 

 greatly worked up on bowling and there 

 will soon be a good team here. 



Sherman Stephens has a nice bunch of 

 Nonin coming on. 



The Munk Floral Co. has cleaned up 

 all its mums with the exception of a few 

 Nonin. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. has a fine 

 batch of late Bonnaffon and Nonin which 

 will be just right. 



Wm. Graff has been making a run on 

 roses and doing a big business.

Ge.ntlemen:— You can eirongly and unhesitatingly recommend the 

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

 of you last year. Wo 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,

 ance, saving its cost by the economy 

 in coal bills.
