of artificial flowers will open a new field 

 for enterprise without in the least in- 

 terfering with the sale of natural flow- 

 ers. French rice flowers are made and 

 imported expressly for this purpose. 

 They are startlingly natural in form, 

 color and even in fragrance, command- 

 ing admiration as marvels of art. 



Godfrey Aschmann reports his stock 

 in splendid condition. 



Jack Neidinger is looking extremely 

 well. He has gained twenty pounds 

 since his illness. 



Conard & Jones Co., West Grove, are 

 erecting two new houses, each 19x120, 

 for roses. 



Carl Corts reopened the city store of 

 the Joseph Heacock Co., September 16, 

 with the first roses from the new house 

 at Roelofs. They included Killarney, 

 r^ady Hillingdon and Mrs. Ward. 



Maurice Fuld says that the quality 

 of exhibits and the attendance at the 

 Michell vegetable show last week sur- 

 prised him. He thinks 1,000 persons 

 must have asked about kohlrabi and 

 Swiss chards. 



Samuel S. Pennock, Mrs. Pennock, 

 Charles F. Pennock and Samuel S. Pen- 

 nock, Jr., are expected back from the 

 Panama canal in a few days. Phil. 



Champaign, HI. — H. A. Bode, who is 

 superintendent of the greenhouses on 

 the Illinois Central railroad from Chi- 

 cago to New Orleans, has sold his resi- 

 lience at 806 South Elm street and will 

 remove to Chicago. 



To Insure Your Flower Decorations being: 

 Attractive and Distinctive, why not make 

 use of Pine Tree Ribbons and Chiffons? 



These are splendid helps and at small cost.

The Market. 



Nothing has yet occurred to break 

 the stagnation in cut flower circles. The 

 aster arrivals are even heavier than 

 before, and of superb quality. A large 

 quantity are practically given away and 

 will not bring the price of the express 

 charges. Here and there some extra 

 choice long-stemmed stock may bring a 

 fair price, but the bulk of the asters 

 are unprofitable these days. Severe 

 rains and early frosts are being hoped 

 for to improve conditions. Gladioli con- 

 tinue in oversupply and only one or two 

 sorts are in any demand. Sweet peas 



are poor and about over from outdoors. 

 Dahlias are featured in many windows, 

 although they are not much of a com- 

 mercial flower here yet. 



Carnations of the new crop are com- 

 ing from a few more growers. Stems 

 are quite short as yet. In chrysanthe- 

 mums, quite a few Smith 's Advance and 

 Golden Glow are arriving. The best 

 selling roses are Beauties, Mme. Russell, 

 Kaiserin and Christy Miller. All 

 short-stemmed stock, owing to the con- 

 tinued high temperature, is hard to get 

 rid of. Lilies and lily of the valley are 

 each good, but there are not many to 

 sell. Cosmos is plentiful. A few gar- 

 denias and fall cattleyas have put in 

 an appearance. One or two small bunches 

 of single violets and some Bouvardia
