Kennicott Bros. Co. reports a ship- 

 ment of 1,000 fancy mums to a Texas 

 point for J. W. Shrader, of Mattoon, 

 111., who was called to Texas to put up 

 a wedding decoration, using mostly 

 stock of his own growing. 



Bobert Northani, a,t George Bein- 

 berg's city salesroom, , says he figures 

 on large supplies, moderate prices and 



food business, at least until after New 

 ear's. 



N. J. Wietor has been reading the 

 show reports and comments that while 

 the Australian varieties appear to take 

 the mum prizes, the American sorts, in 

 his experience, are tlie ones that get 

 the money. 



Mrs. L. H. Winterson has been crit-

 but is now at home again. An opera-

 house, building a floor above the boiler 

 and using the entire space for plants 



on benches. Of course the stack rises 

 through the center, but the work is so 

 well done that the space above the 

 boiler is only a few degrees warmer 

 than the rest of the house. Stock of 

 all kinds was in fine shape and gives 

 evidence of being just right for the 

 holidays. 



Sinner Bros., whose range now eon- 

 tains fifteen houses, are planning thi> 

 early rebuilding of four of tne oldest 

 of them. 



Whi^ cut>flower ahd f)laBt baskets, 

 with a wreath of ribbons and roses in 

 relief on the sides, the latter hand-
