HUNT'S REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO 

 MARKET. 



A quiet week. Local and shipping trade both 

 complaining of lack of orders aiid few caring to 

 carry stock speculatively. 



Roses seemed to be off crop everywhere, but 

 latter part saw some improvement atd a few 

 good bright days will help wonderfully, though 

 continued shortage for some little lime yet is 

 probably still in store. 



Carnations were good and at times plentiful. 

 At present, however, best grades go quickly at 

 a slight advance over last quotations. Whites 

 of any sort and really tirst class Tidal Wave 

 being in shortest sufp'y, 



Violets are good with uncertain supply and 

 demand— the two often fa ling to connect. 



Romans and paper whites not quite i o plenti- 

 ful; most growers having forced the bulk of 

 their surplus stock and now only turning out 

 enough for regular trade. Tulips are now com- 

 ing better and the scarcity of white roses has 

 helped sales greatly. 



An uncertain feeling pervades the market and 

 one hardly knows whether there is really a 

 good'supply of slock in sight or whether we 

 aie about to enter a period of real scarcity- 

 chances favoring the latter.

 should be. The Evans' Challenge
