Why you should grow SANQAMO 



let. 



It will give you more blooms in a season than any other variety. The fastest grower we 



have ever seen. 

 2nd. It is the best color of anything in this class, Winsor, Rose-pink Enchantress or any 



other. 

 3rd. The blooms are well formed, nicely rounded out in the center and do not fade. 

 4th. The flower stands well above the calyx, making it impossible to split. 

 5th. It comes early with long stems that are always stiff, holding the flower gracefully. 

 6th. The entire stock ii clean and healthy. The cuttings root easily and the plants lift from 



the field and establish themselves without a set-back. 

 7th. Not only an exhibition variety, but the best bread and butter Carnation for any florist to 

 grow. Let us pay your coal bill for you.

VASHINGTON. 



The Market 



Indian summer continues and has dis- 

 turbed business considerably. The warm 

 weather has caused considerable stock of 

 the poorer quality to come in, quite in 

 excess of the demand. The firsts, what 

 few there were, have been picked up by 

 individuals for display purposes at the 

 show. Chrysanthemums are in over- 

 supply, which gives the store man an 

 opportunity to make a big showing. 

 Eoses show the effects of the warm 

 weather, especially the Killarney. Beau- 

 ties are coming in heavy crop and are 

 promising for Thanksgiving. Some fine 

 single violets are to be seen in the 

 market. W. F. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market 



The warm weather of last week put a 

 damper on the cut flower market. There 

 was no demand for any kind of flowers, 

 which caused stock to pile up in the mar- 

 ket early in the week. The retailers were 

 unanimous in stating that there was no 

 business. Only the cream of what was 

 sent in sold at anywhere near market 

 prices. "What was left was sold in lots 

 at any price. 



The violet market was also quiet all 

 the week. 



Variow Noto. 



A visit to A. Schmitt's place, at Glen- 

 ville, found everything in fine shape. The 

 mums and carnations are looking well. 

 Large quantities of Lorraine begonias 



Shasta 



During October Shasta gave us 2 blooms per plant. During 

 the first 15 days of November we cut 2369 good blooms from the 

 same bed of 1800 plants. The cut is getting better every day. 



Growers who come to see it growing, marvel at its productive- 

 ness and fine quality of bloom. We would like to have you come 

 and see it too. Once you see it, you will want to grow it. 



Booking orders for it now at $12.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000
