Secretary THE RIBBON HOUSE ScHLoss Bros., Ribbons,jnc. 31 and 33 East 28th Street, N EW YORK HEADQUARTERS For Florists' Ribbons, Chiffons and Novelties the streets as much as possible and re- tailers are now feeling much more opti- mistic. Rains and, more recently, frosts have spoiled many outdoor flowers, and in- door flowers are once more coming into their own. Roses went sluggishly until September 27, when they cleaned out well. Prices on hybrid teas vary from $3 to $16 per hundred,with select Amei;^can Beauties at $4 to $5 per dozen. Carna- tions are much improved in quality and most growers of these popular flowers have started shipping. The best flow- ers realize $3 per liundred, but many are cleared at half these prices. Chrys- anthemums as yet are largely confined to Golden Glow and Smith's Advance and sell up to $3 and $4 per dozen. A few pompons have already appeared. Some single violets are arriving, but the quality is not yet of the best. Gladioli never appeared in greater abundance or of grander quality at the end of September. Prices have im- proved to $3 to $(5 per hundred. Indoor asters are cleaning up well, but the remnants of the outdoor crop are sold cheaply. Bachelor's buttons, a former favorite, are now largely in the discard Cosmos is plentiful and there are some nice scarlet pentstemons, dahlias, gen- tians and everlastings.

A few oncidiums and vandas are also seen. Bouvardia is seen in small lots. A rather better call ex- ists for adiantum and asparagus.
