The volume of business done last week would not have been so large had it not been for the All Saints' day trade. From all reports, business for this day was no better than last year's, but it was as good. Small chrysanthemums and carnations were in greatest demand, and as a result there was nowhere near enough to meet the demand. Carnations at the present time seem to be a little off crop; this, perhaps, is due to the last few weeks of dull weather.

The Heiss Co. has recently purchased ten acres of ground south of this city, on which there will be erected several large greenhouses in the near future. This company had one of the prettiest Hallowe'en windows in the city last week. Mrs. Elizabeth Fhebus is having splendid suijcess with her chrysanthe- mums this season, both in growing and disposing of them. George Bartholomew reports a most satisfactory business for All Saints' day. This was Mr. Bartholomew's first All Saints' day since being in busin
