HUNT'S WEEKLY REVIEW OF THE 

 CHICAGO MARKET. 



r Steady cloudy weather with frequent rains 

 and light flurries of snow have been continuous 

 and all indications point to a continuance of 

 these conditions for yet a while. 



Stock of all sorts scarce and growing scarcer 

 daily— seemingly getting ready for a famine 

 later on. Growers are running houses as cool 

 as possible and not overdo it— even with their 

 evident designs on a reserve supply for Holiday 

 Trade it is doubtful if they can hold much back 

 as wholesalers are raiding all places within 

 reach daily to till rush and heavy orders. 



Violets goodin colorand stem but exceedingly 

 .shy in bloom. Carnations fair to good, but few 

 really high grade coming in. Stems getting 

 shorter and weaker. 



Roses while lighter in cut are really improv- 

 ing in color and foliage. Maids particularly 

 showing best rate of improvement. La France, 

 Testout, .Siebrecht and Carnot continue to be 

 •• off ■' in both cut and quality. 



Harrisii were never so good at this season as 

 at present. Valley also is high grade with 

 nearly everyone. 



Bulbous stuff is fine and quite plentiful and is 

 going readily at paying prices— forcers probably 

 will realize more for their cut than for last two 

 seasons— in spile of added cost due to duty. 



The shortage of fine white stock is now well 

 tilled with first-class stevia which is plentiful. 



Extra fine poinsettias have made their ap- 

 pearance. Few will be seen however until 

 Christmiis as better prices will be realized then. 



"Mums" save for a few holdovers have dis- 

 appeared. Quite a number of growers have 

 some that will be cut soon now that should be 

 fairly good. 



Cut flower stock of all sorts will be .scarcer 

 this Christmas than for several seasons. 



Gladioli, is the title of an interesting 

 pamphlet, issued by Mr. Frank Banning, 

 Kinsman, O. While in it bulbs are of- 

 fered for sale, it is more than a price list, 

 giving a useful review of proper methods 

 of growing, and of producing new bulbs. 

 It can be had free on application, meii- 

 tioningthe Florists' Review.
