they were a few days ago and prices are 

 stiffening somewhat. American Beauty 

 roses are offered only in very limitetl 

 quantity. Brides and Maids that were 

 plentiful two weeks ago are being cut 

 closely and are hardly enough to supply 

 the demand, which is only fair for all 

 kinds of stock. The last roses I have 

 named are selling wholesale today at 

 from 50 cents to $1 per dozen, which is 

 really a very good price for this season 

 of the year. Testout and Kaiserin are 

 selling at 75 cents to $1 per dozen and 

 very few really good ones are seen. With 

 carnations good whites are still scarce 

 and Estelle seems to be off crop witli 

 almost all the growers. Lawson, Cress- 

 brook and several other pink sorts are 

 making the best showing at present and 

 some good fancy varieties are selling at 

 60 cents per dozen wholesale. Flora 

 Hill is the variety we depend on prin- 

 cipally for white, but a few of our larger 

 gi'owers have planted considerable stock 

 of Wliite Cloud and Queen Louise, both 

 of which have several good points, but 

 I do not think will supersede Hill as an 

 all around good white. Valley is plenti- 

 ful. Paper White narcissi are on the 

 wane and the various yellow varieties 

 are very abundant. Daffodils are com- 

 ing in slowly and the majority of them 

 with very poor stems, owing to the cold 

 weather we have had. A few days' rain 

 and followed by a day or two of sunshine 

 would bring thousands lof them into 

 market. I visited one of the largest 

 daffodil farms in this locality a few days 

 ago and was told by the proprietor that 

 the flower stems had not grown to any 

 appreciable e.xtent for the past two 

 weeks, but as there were manv thousands

of buds in sight there will be an ava- 

 lanche of blossoms as soon as weather 

 conditions are favorable. Tulips of the 

 Keizerskroon and Rembrandt varieties 

 are in full swing and a few La Reine 

 have made their appearance. I do not 

 think the tulips are in as much demand 

 as they were last season. They are sell- 

 ing at about $3 per hundred. Freesias 

 are plentiful and in good demand. Thcv 

 are one of the most satisfactory flowers 

 a florist can handle, good keepers, easily 

 arranged into tasty bunches, have a de- 

 licious perfume and can be handled at a 

 good profit. Violets are plentiful and 

 cheap but some of them show the effects 

 of our recent frosty wealher. p
