HUNT'S REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO MAR- 

 KET. 



Market has changed but little during the 

 past week. Stock still continues scarce. Al- 

 most any price at times could be obtained for 

 flrst-class Maids and Brides, nor does relief 

 seem immediate. There is no doubt but that 

 there is an immense crop of buds in sight, 

 but the weather does not favor their develop- 

 ment. 



Old timers state that the last few weeks 

 have made history and all agree that not for 

 six years past has^there been so long a con- 

 tinued period of shortage and a uniformity of 

 price at as high a notch. 



Bulb stuff has come to the rescue nobly and 

 the combinations tulips have gone through with 

 continues in short supply, though the little to 

 have been a revelation to many. Adiantum still 

 be had while short in stem is good in quality. 

 Violets show a stiffening in price, that is, 

 ■while quotations remain about the same. Tlie 

 bulk of receipts are cleared out at list prices. 



It is a matter of importance to know that 

 fern dealers east report stock of fancy com- 

 mon ferns to be lower at present than for sev- 

 eral years past at this season. Those having 

 contracts at reasonable rates probably have 

 good reason to congratulate themselves. 



DRACAENA GODSEFFIANA. 



This new dracaena is now being of- 

 fered by Sander. The foliage is de- 

 scribed as a deep, polished green, heav- 

 ily spotted and splashed with creamy 

 white. The engraving, which is from 

 a photograph, shows a very handsome 

 plant, and it is said to be as tough as an 

 aspidistra. 



TROY, N. Y.— Mr. Jas. A. Fraser, for- 

 merly traveler for the Lovett Co., Lit- 

 tle Silver, N. J., is now with the firm 

 of Young & Halstead, seedsmen, this

 cessors of tlie Morrison & Westfall Co.
