this fall is the best in her many years' 

 experience. 



The plant market in the tent opened 

 Saturday, October '2, with an encourag- 

 ing attendance, and will be continued 

 uvery Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday 

 until the weather closes it, prol)ably 

 about December 1. The hours are to 

 9 a. m., a most sensible decision, when 

 compared with the midnight opening of 

 this market in the spring. 



The sympathy of the trade is tendered 

 .1. K. Allen in the death of his only 

 sister, Friday, October 1, at his home in 

 New Jersey. The burial services took 

 place Monday, October 4, at tlie family 

 ground in Wliippanv, near Morristown, 

 N. J. 



G. K. Bradsiuiw, the wholesale florist 

 who has opened at 55 West Twenty- 

 sixth street, spent twelve years in the 

 wholesale cut flower business on Twenty- 

 eighth street. For the last five years he 

 lias been with the board of engineers of 

 the Pennsylvania railroad. He has many 

 friends in the trade and excellent facili- 

 ties for renewed success. 



John F. Withers, of Jersey City, the 

 landscape architect, is acquiring a na-

 has returned from a successful European 

 trip. Mr. Bobbink says the nursery 

 trade this fall is extremely heavy. 



W, H. Kuebler, the Brooklyn whole- 

 saler, has taken unto himself a wife and

 will be after the mum season is over. 



Lecakes & Co., Cotsonas & Co., and 

 J. J. Fellouris were all overwhelmed last 

 week with roping and wreathing orders. 

 The Ker\an i'n. delivered large quanti- 

 ties also, and many dozen cases of wild 

 smilax. B. Rosens found his immense 

 supply of wild smilax completely de- 

 pleted before the demand was over. It 

 was a great week for the supply men, 

 much like Christmas and Easter. 



J. V. Phillips, the Brooklyn retailer,
