Fred C. Weber had a large Thanks- 

 giving trade. Both plants and cut 

 flowers sold well. His show house is 

 well filled with fine decorative plants 

 of all kinds. 



The W. C. Smith Wholesale Floral 

 Co. handled a fine lot of violets and car- 

 nations for Thanksgiving, all home- 

 grown stock, which sold out clean. 



R. J. Windier, C. Bergstermann and 

 Carl Beyer, on South Grand avenue, 

 all report a rushing Thanksgiving 

 business. 



Frai.k A. Weber, of H. J. Weber & 

 Sons Nursery Co., says they never have 

 been so busy as this season with both 

 shipping and local demands for nurs- 

 ery stock of all kinds. 



The Ellispn Floral Co., Kalisch Bros. 

 Floral Co. 'and Theo. Miller made a 

 fine Thanksgiving show of cut flowers 

 and blooming plants in their pretty 

 show houses last week. 



Don't forget the meeting of the Re- 

 tail Florists' Association on Monday, 

 December 5. It is important for all 

 members to be present, and early. 



C. Young & Sons Co., Miss Badaracco, 

 Foster Floral Co., Otto Sander and 

 Riessen Floral Co., all say that they 

 had an exceptionally good trade at 

 Thanksgiving. In the north end, the 

 Bentzen Floral Co., A. Brix, Koenig 

 Floral Co. and F. H. Meinhardt also 

 say they did splendidly. 



Thursday afternoon, December 8, the 

 Florists' Club will hold its last meet- 

 ing in the old year. President John 

 Connon and Vice-President Frank 

 Weber are rounding up the members to 

 attend this meeting, so a large gather- 

 ing is expected. J. J. B. 



DENVER. 



The Market. 



Thanksgiving business was all that 

 could be desired, except that if there 

 had been more good yellow chrysanthe- 

 mums it would have been better. Chrys- 

 anthemum plants sold well, and the de- 

 mand for good plants was greater than 

 the supply. Beauties in medium and 

 short grades were not to be had, and 

 the long ones did not sell on account 

 of the price. Denver is apt to copy 

 Chicago prices whenever it can, but 

 made a mistake in the price of Beauties 

 this time. Denver flower lovers are 

 willing to pay the price for long Beauties 

 at Christmas, but $10 or $12 a dozen 

 retail at Thanksgiving is more than 

 the average person cares to spend. Tea 

 roses were scarce, and a few of the 

 florists had some shipped from Council 

 Bluffs. Violets were scarce, as usual. 

 The plants are in fine condition, but the 

 extremely warm weather has kept the 

 buds from forming. California violets

are being sold on the streets by ped- 

 dlers, but the quality is poor, after such 

 a long journey, and they would hardly 

 do to sell to a customer who is inter- 

 ested enough to go into a store to buy 

 violets.

There is an abundance of fine plants 

 at the different greenhouses, and from 

 present indications there will be an ex- 

 ceptionally good crop of cut flowers at
