State of Trade. 



Trade has been rather quiet for the 

 last two weeks, with stock scarce, out- 

 side of roses, which have been 'plentiful 

 and of good quality. Carnations are 

 good, but there are few of them in the 

 market. Good asters are still at a pre- 

 mium here, as most of the growers report 

 only about one-fifth worth cutting. Plant- 

 ing around here is about completed and 

 stock is looking promising. 



There has been some funeral work and 

 that is about all we can count on here at 

 present. It will not be long until the 

 most of the travelers return, when we all 

 expect business to open up somewhat. 



Various Notes. 



Last week was the state fair week and 

 brought a big out-of-town crowd, with a 

 good many in our line of business who 

 came on business and pleasure combined. 



The Florists' Club has held no meet- 

 ing as yet since the summer vacation, 

 and the outlook is that they will not be 

 able to meet in their old hall, but will 

 have to secure other quarters. 



E. A. Currie, accompanied by his wife 

 and two eldest daughters, left September 

 6 for Lake Muskoka, Canada, via Cleve- 

 land, Buffalo and Niagara Falls, where 

 they will visit relatives for a couple of 

 weeks. 



Sherman Stephens reports funeral work 

 heavy la«t week and quite a number of 

 grave linings. 



Mrs. George Bauman is improving slow- 

 ly, and -we ail hope she will soon be able 

 to be in our midst again. J. M.

Current G>mment. 



Everything outside here is dried up. 

 We have had no rain for several weeks. 



The I. S. Crall Co. has just com- 

 pleted a house 40x125 feet and has it 

 planted to mums. 



E. I. Rawlings, who was with J. A. 

 Keeney last year, has gone to Albany, 



James A. Keeney has begun walking 

 again, with the help of a cane. He 

 walked with crutches for a year after 

 his accident, but now is on deck again 

 and intends to make an effort to build 

 up his business once more. He will be 

 ready with 50,000 rooted cuttings of ge- 

 raniums and 10,000 petunias this winter. 

 He will build a sash house, 10x80 feet, 

 next month.

Good Judgment 



Never Go Wrong 



What do jrou think? When will 

 you start in ? Do it no'w. Waitin g 

 means suicide. I always act as 

 soon as I think, and have been 

 successful; learn to do like^eise. 



If you so much money would make. 

 That to pile it, you'd need a big rake, 



Then to Aschmann you'll scurry. 



And buy in a hurry 

 All the plants your benches will take.
