that is, the select. As Mgh as 30 cents 

 is obtained for those that merit it. Of 

 the smaller, short-stemmed Beauties and 

 of No. 2 roses of every kind, the better 

 way to indicate their results is silence. 

 Thousands of mildewed roses have been 

 sent in. No use; this is not the market 

 for them. The best or nothing, seems to 

 have expressed the condition of the de- 

 mand during these weary weeks of wait- 

 ing. 



The asters have appeared in the last 

 act and the curtain has been rung down. 

 Sweet peas have joined the vanishing 

 host and the days of the gladioli are 

 numbered. Now come the chrysanthe- 

 mums upon the stage. The vanguard is 

 already here and some beautiful Mon- 

 rovia and Pacific are among them. Dah- 

 lias are abundant and beautiful. The 

 exhibition last week gave them such dis- 

 tinction as they have never before en- 

 joyed, both in the wonderful perfection 

 of the new varieties, and the large crowds 

 that attended the institute show. The 

 ofScials realize how much room is needed 

 for these displays and are already ar- 

 ranging for a big hall uptown for the 

 regular chrysanthemum show in Novem- 

 ber. 



Orchids grow in beauty, variety and 

 numbers and in popularity. Many are 

 the October weddings announced, the 

 fashionable events, to be consummated 

 in the great ball rooms of the Plaza 

 and St. Regis hotels, where the roof gar- 

 dens and floricultural decorations are 

 featured as never before. Society is 

 now rapidly returning from the seashore 

 and the mountains, and the gloomy days 

 are nearly over. Before another week 

 the tide will turn and after the excite- 

 ment of the election has passed, there 

 seems nothing to prevent a recurrence of 

 the good times, so rudely interrupted a 

 year ago. Optimists • look for steady 

 progress and the best winter the trade 

 has ever known. Conservatives think the 

 wave of economy has gathered such force 

 that enterprise will be hard to awaken 

 and improvement will be slow. In any 

 event consolation may be had from the 

 fact tha^ worse would be impossible.
