The holiday, with numerous coming-out 

 parties, weddings, family gatherings 

 and other social affairs, caused a 

 marked stimulus to business. Mums 

 held out well to the last, but only a 

 few scattering ones will now be of- 

 fered until the Christmas holidays. 

 Two unusually elaborate coming-out 

 parties, one of which called for several 

 hundred Beauty roses, had a decided 

 effect upon the conditions. 



Prices stiffened somewhat a couple 

 of days before the holiday and again 

 on Wednesday. Chrysanthemums, of 

 which several thousands were handled, 

 were $3 to $7.50 per dozen; roses, $1 

 to $5 per dozen, with American Beau- 

 ties at $8 to $12; carnations, 75 cents 

 to $1.25 dozen; orchids and gardenias, 

 $8 to $12 per dozen. 



Various Notes. 



William Hay, of Oaklawn, is ship- 

 ping large consignments of fine roses 

 to the Boston market daily. 



Joseph Kopelman handled the largest 

 stock of cut flowers at wholesale and 

 retail of any year he has been in busi- 

 ness. 



The funeral of James B. Gay, grand 

 master of the Grand Lodge of Masons 

 of Ehode Island, gave several of the 

 city firms lots of work. There was an 



PRIZE-WINNING 



CARNATIONS 



At the fall shows we exhibited more carnations than any other grower, and won more 

 prizes than any other firm with the same amount of glass. It is because the stock we 

 ship is the same high quality we exhibit that we please our customers ALL the time.

 all of the dealers got a share. Mr. Gay
