Trade last week was good. Flowers 

 are rather scarce, especially carnations. 

 These retail at 60 cents and 75 cents 

 per dozen. Roses are of good quality 

 and retail at $1.50 and $2 per dozen. 

 Violets sell fairly well at $1.50 per hun- 

 dred blooms, snapdragons at 75 cents 

 per dozen. Not many mums are to be 

 seen; a couple of weeks more will see 

 their finish. It has been a satisfactory 

 season for these noble flowers. Stevia 

 and candytuft help out a good deal. 

 We had our first real snow storm last 

 week, also a taste of cold weather, 

 which made the greenhouse men shovel 

 coal. 



William P. Peirce is showing some 

 nice flowers in his window on Union 

 street. E. H. Chamberlain was in Bos- 

 ton recently, stocking up for Christmas, 

 with flowering plants, etc. 



E. Y. Peirce is cutting some fine 

 Killarney roses, both pink and white. 



B. H. Woodhouse is cutting some ele- 

 gant Fair Maid carnations. His roses 

 will be in good crop for Christmas.

Fire destroyed the two greenhouses 

 of W. E. Mosher December 3. The loss 

 was about $2,000 and the insurance had 

 run out only a few days before. The 

 fire caught in the boiler shed. 



INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Trade for the last two weeks has 

 been fair only. The dark weather has 

 shortened the cut flower supply and 

 from the present outlook flowers will 

 not be overabundant at Christmas. The 

 carnation outlook is none too bright, 

 as they have been off crop considerably 

 for some time. There are some callas 

 and Harrisii lilies to be had, the same 

 being cleaned up daily at $12.50 to $15 

 per hundred. 



The supply of cattleyas is short. Some 

 Percivaliana can be had, but not in 

 large quantities. Sweet peas and home 

 grown violets are not more than enough 

 to go around. Paper Whites and Ro- 

 mans find a ready market. Some few 

 mums are to be had, but not in quan- 

 tity. Poinsettias are plentiful this 

 year. 



The outlook for potted plants is good, 

 as there are plenty of fine azaleas, poin- 

 settias, cyclamen and Lorraines to be 

 ikad. Holly, laurel and mistletoe are
