as some of the later plantings are com- 

 ing in now. Chrysanthemums are more 

 plentiful, but are still a little shy to 

 ^11 the demand for them. Some of the 

 early varieties, such as Pacific, Estelle, 

 Monrovia, October Frost, etc., are about 

 all cut out. Early Snow has been fine 

 and has created quite an impression on 

 most of the growers. No doubt it is one 

 of the best in market at this time. Some 

 fine Virginia Poehlmann are to be seen 

 and Touset is getting to be plentiful. 

 Pacific Supreme is coming fine and is 

 one of the best pinks we have at this 

 date. Yellow is quite «ca^e this week, 

 as everything in the "^^f ^ ^ V^Bow 

 mum WM cleaned up Octtiber 19 for the 

 f ootbav game, Michigan vs. O. S, -[JJ. 

 Halliday and Appleton will soon be*in 

 and they will be welcome. Valley has 

 been more plentiful and there has been 

 quite a good demand for it. Violets are 

 coming more plentifully and the quality 

 is much better. The singles are coming 

 with better stems and will soon be up 

 to the winter standard. 



Various Notes. 



E. Metzmaier has been quite busy 

 lately on funeral work. 



Sherman Stephens reports good busi- 

 ness, with mums coming on well. 



Charles A. Both reports business good. 



The Livingston Seed Co. is making 

 a run on bulbs and reports some heavy 

 orders for funeral work. 



The Fifth Avenue Floral Co. is cut- 

 ting some fine mums. The carnations 

 and roses are good at the country plant. 



Guy H. Woodrow, of the Fifth Ave- 

 nue Floral Co., is seriously ill, having 

 been laid up with typhoid for about six 

 weeks. While the fever is broken, he 

 is not able to retain any nourishment 

 and bis family and friends are much 

 alarmed over his condition. J. M. 



DAYTON, OHIO. 



The Market. 



Delightful fall weather still prevails, 

 and has a tendency to bring in enough 

 stock to supply the trade in most lines. 

 Last week's business started in with 

 a boom, but towards the end of the 

 week it was somewhat quiet. Fall open- 

 ings are seemingly out of date now and 

 their absence has helped to quiet busi- 

 ness. Parties and receptions are still 

 in order, but as a general rule they do 

 not consume as much stock as do the 

 openings. There were quite a number 

 of weddings last week and many of 

 the florists report a good many for this 

 week. Funeral orders for the smaller
