Beautiful Indian summer weather is 

 about the only pleasant feature to men- 

 tion. Business is rather quiet, with the 

 exception of wedding and funeral work. 

 Asters are getting scarce, but the bet-

 sell well, especially America, which al-

Preparations for Flower Show.

 Club the chief subject for discussion

 rangements were made, committees se-

 will continue about four days. The en-

 will not be made public at present, but 

 the trade in general will be invited at
