I he condition of the market is about 

 as last reported. Roses are holding firm 

 and finding a readj sale at from $2 to |(3 

 per LOO. Carnations bring $1.50 to $2 

 per LOO, sweet peas 30 to 10 cents per 

 100, and lilies T"> cents to $1 i«'i dozen. 

 \'iilli'\ i- Miner .ii 4 cents. Maiden- 

 hair brings 75 cents to $1 per LOO, and 

 sinihix 15 cents a string. Boses and

 28x300 feet and the whole place will be 

 planted to roses, carnations, ferns and
