READING, PA. 



The Market. 



Business for the last few weeks has 

 been rather backward, due to an over- 

 supply of chrysanthemums and the in- 

 vasion of this city by several of the 

 leading cut flower fakers of Philadelphia, 

 who occupy large stands in the city's 

 main streets and local market houses. 

 These fakers were selling roses at the 

 rate of two for 5 cents, and carnations 

 seven for 5 cents, while the top-notch 

 Christmas price lists were about to go 

 into effect. This is a deplorable state 

 of affairs, and is greatly regretted by 

 the local florists. 



Open weather predominates and the 

 outlook for mild holiday weather is 

 favorable. 



Various Notes. 



Henry J. Huesman reports a fairly 

 good outlook for the holidays. A choice 

 line of blooming plants can always be 

 seen at his establishment, together with 

 large crops of smilax and sweet peas. 



John H. Giles' store and greenhouse 

 have taken on their holiday attire and 

 present a magnificent appearance. Mr. 

 Giles has been busy with several large 

 wedding decorations, among the notable 

 ones being the wedding of Miss Endlich, 

 daughter of Judge G. A. Endlich, of this 

 city. 



Jacob A. Bander, of Tenth and Wind- 

 sor streets, who has been confined to bed 

 on account of injuries received by being 

 kicked by a horse, is able to be about 

 again. Mr. Bauder has been especially 

 busy on funeral work and has turned out 

 some handsome designs during the last 

 few weeks. His houses of carnations are 

 in the best of condition and buds by the 

 thousands can be counted in each house. 

 These will be just right for Christmas. 



The G. H. Hoskins Co. reports an en- 

 couraging outlook for the holidays. The 

 firm's greenhouses at Wyomissing pre- 

 sent their usual attractive appearance, 

 and the plants and cut flowers for the 

 holidays are in the pink of condition. 



Heck Bros., of "Wyomissing, have been 

 extremely busy preparing their immense 

 stock of holiday plants for shipment and 

 local delivery, Gloire De Lorraine is 

 seen here in all its grandeur. The plants 

 in 3-inch to 5-inch pots and pans are a 

 sight worth seeing. Their houses of car- 

 nations are just right for the holidays. 

 This place is the home of the new 

 pink chrysanthemum, Hawthorne. Large 

 benches, with an abundance of cuttings 

 of this variety, are being cared for with 

 a view to spring delivery. Several other 

 noted seedlings will also be sent out for 

 trial. H. C,
