An Unprecedented Array of Choice Roses 



Never before in the history of the commercial cut flower business have 

 we been able to oflFer so much variety in Roses as we are doing at present. 

 The three or four standard sorts of a few years ago have been supplemented 

 by eight or nine new ones that are good all the year round, and commer- 

 cially possible from the grower's "bread-and-butter" standpoint, so that 

 the retailer has now no cause to complain of lack of variety to offer his 

 customers. 



The "Great 12" we are offering with a few quotations for this week are:

 dle basket filled with oneidiums, cypri- 

 pediums, bronze snapdragon, Mrs. 

 Aaron Ward roses and sunshine ribbon 

 was UBuaual and pleasing. M«lody rosea 

 were used with cypripediums, ferns and 

 blue ribbon in a small handle basket. 

 A 48-inch hamper filled much of the 

 apace. In it were Tint of Gold and 

 Golden Glow chrysanthemums and Mc- 



Cullough dahlias, with ombre ribbon. 

 A spray of autumn foliage and dahlias 

 was across the lid. They are having 

 quite a sale on 'their French corsages. 

 These are laee bouquet holders filled 

 with a gardenia, a few sprays of valley 

 and pink snapdragons, one or two Mel- 

 ody, Maryland, Bon Silene and Safrano 

 rosebuds, a small cluster of violeta and 

 a small orchid. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. John R. Claus opened her new 

 store at Thirteenth street and German- 

 town avenue October 14, just two 

 squares above her old location. "When 

 this lot was purchased last spring an 

 old house stood where the large, mod- 

 ern store and dwelling now are. The 

 large window is not even on all sides.
