FREIGHT TOO HIGH? 



Good business men consider freight charges under present con- 

 ditions^and buy near home if they can get good stock. Our 



Hydrangeas Are Good 



stock, the best we ever had, with heavy, well budded shoots. 

 Best French kinds in any quantity, in sizes from 4, 5, 6 and 7- 

 inch pots at 25c, 35c, 50c and 75c each; Otaksa in 4 and 5-inch 

 only, balance sold out. One lot of 4-inch French specially 

 good; short and stumpy, with from 2 to 5 breaks, really worth 

 more, will make good 6-inch stock for Easter or Mothers' Day; 

 2-inch for growing on, $8.00 per 100; any variety, any quantity. 



We are shipping now; order early, don't hang back, busi- 

 ness will be booming when these plants are blooming. 



Ramblers and Baby Ramblers, all on their own roots. 

 The Ramblers have been grown in the field for two years, 

 every one tied up to stakes to ripen the wood; they are good. 

 Dorothy Perkins, Excelsior and Tausendschoen, 30c each and 

 PKENC^ HYDXANGBA charges for boxes. 



The Baby Ramblers have been in the field for one year and 

 have done well. The strongest only will be lifted. Do not compare them with budded stock, but as to blooming, they 

 will do as well or better. Baby Rambler, Baby Tausendschoen, Clothilde Soupert, Ellen Poulsen and Erna Teschendorff. 

 25c each, no charge for packing. Delivery from early November on.

The Market. 



The market last week indicated consid- 

 erable improvement. The general de- 

 mand was a little better, prices firmer, 

 and arrivals of outdoor flowers smaller in 

 number than for several months. No 

 frosts are reported hereabouts, but many 

 of the summer flowers are gone. Dahlias 

 arrive in great quantity, but prices ob- 

 tained for them are unremunerative, and 

 many growers have discontinued ship- 

 ping them. Asters are still coming in, 

 but are getting fewer every day, and the 

 quality is poor. Chrysanthemums are 

 arriving now in considerable quantity, 

 and appear to sell fairly well at prices 

 ranging from $16 to $50 per hundred, 

 with the small outdoor varieties bringing 

 25 cents to 75 cents per bunch. Chrj-so- 

 lora and Oconto are prominent among 

 arrivals. 



The supply of carnations is increasing, 

 and some improvement in quality is no- 

 ticed, particularly in stem lengths. The 

 best of arrivals move easily, and the 

 rest clear fairly well. The price range is 

 $2 to $4, the latter figure for select 

 stock. 



The supply of roses is not quite so 

 heavy as it has been for some time, and 

 a fair demand has caused a stiffening of

prices in the hybrid tea class. Amer- 

 ican Beauty is in good supply and moves 

 at last week's quotations. 



Cattleyas arc in heavy supply and 

 move slowly. A few oncidiums are com- 

 ing in. Cypripcdiums arc in moderate 

 supply. 



Lilies continue on the scarce side and 

 prices are unchanged. Lily of the valley 

 is plentiful and sales are slow, florists 

 evidently not caring to stock up at $1 to 

 $6 per hundred. 



There is a moderate supply of outside 

 flowers other than dahlias. A few 

 gladioli of poor quality are coming.
