DENVER. 



The Market. 



A rather heavy frost the first part of 

 last week put an end to all outdoor 

 flowers. There is plenty of greenhouse 

 stock, however, to meet all demands and 

 it is most easily disposed of now. Trade 

 is improving right along and everybody 

 is hoping for a good winter's business. 

 Pot plants are daily increasing in popu- 

 larity. Some unusually fine Jerusalem 

 cherries were seen last week. They 

 were remarkably well berried and are 

 selling well for this time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Margaret Long, a stenographer 

 in the employ of the Barteldes Seed Co., 

 was killed October 6. She fell down the 

 elevator shaft from the third floor of 

 the Harvard hotel, breaking her neck. 



Several of the 5 and 10-cent stores 

 have large displays of Dutcli bulbs and 

 Chinese lilies. 



Wm. Horlacher is again with the Bar-

 condition. His carnations are especially 

 good. He says business is fine. R. S.
