DENVER. 



The Market. 



The first heavy frost and cold 

 weather came October 18, and since 

 then business has been more favorable; 

 not that it is as good as last October, 

 for it is Bot. On all sides one hears 

 the complaint that "this is the dullest 

 season we have ever experienced. ' ' As 

 a matter of fact, stock has not been 

 as plentiful as it might have been, 

 and perhaps it was just as well that 

 business was rather slow. Of tea roses 

 there was a quantity, and the loss on 

 these was no small item; but cariiations 

 have been scarce all through the fall, 

 and if any were dumped it was because 

 no great effort was made to dispose of 

 them. They are still scarce, and a few 

 out-of-town orders each day clean up 

 any possible surplus. 



Chrysanthemums are in good supply^ 

 but the demand is steady and there has 

 been no Isss. Prices here are notice- 

 ably lower for first-class stock than in 

 the east, taking the Chicago price lists 

 as a basis. Some fine mums, that would 

 easily bring $3 and $4 in Chicago, are 

 sold each day at $2. Nothing higher 

 is asked. 



There is not much demand for good, 

 long-stemmed Beauties; the medium 

 grades sell best. Several out-of-town 

 florists, who find they have more stock 

 than they can dispose of at home, are 

 shipping t» Denver in the hope of find- 

 ing a market. These shipments help 

 out in rush times and are thankfully 

 received. 



Various Notes. 



The Tremont street store of A. C. 

 Sinram has been divided into two parts. 

 Mr. Sinram will keep the corner, and 

 consequently will be giving up only a 

 small percentage of window space. 



C. A. Benson is cutting some fine 

 chrysanthemums, for which he finds a 

 ready market. 



Newlander & Rolin have lately com- 

 pleted a new carnation house, 20x175 

 feet. The construction is entirely of 

 wood. 



Espelin & Warren, of Fort Collins, 

 are consigning to the Denver Wholesale 

 Florists' Co. their surplus of carnations 

 and chrysanthemums. N. E. De Golier, 

 Loveland, makes frequent shipments of 

 fine carnations to this firm, and A. 

 Gardner, of Greeley, is disposing of his 

 chrysanthemums in the same way. 



John Bubach, representing Lion & 

 Co., and Raleigh H. Starbuck, of E. H. 

 Hunt, called on the trade last week". 

 Other visitors were G. Fleischer, of 

 Pueblo, and A. Gardner, of Greeley. 



There were a number of weddings 

 and debutante parties last week. The 

 iecoration at the wedding of Miss 

 Emma Phipps was probably the most 

 •laborate, and was done by William 

 Speth. M. E. J.
