HUNT'S REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO 

 MARKET. 



Market during past week has been faif- 

 ly active, on the whole, and everyone 

 seem-s encouraged. The worst features of 

 the Lenten decline have probably passed, 

 and from now on more stock should move. 



Prices have ruled low on everything 

 excepting Brides, carnations (especially 

 white), and smilax. Good smilax is now 

 quite scarce, cause attributable probably 

 to two things— growers having cut earlier 

 to make room for bedding stock, and 

 those not needing the room who are hold- 

 ing for Easter. 



There was no especial marked event or 

 flurry, and nothing is looked for to par- 

 ticularly interrupt the even tenor during 

 coming week. The great demand has 

 been for white stuff. 



Violets are fairly plentiful and sell read- 

 ily. Stocks are good in everything. 

 Callas and Harrisli plentiful. Beauties 

 drag somewhat, shorts and mediums hav- 

 ing the call. Where, oh where! is the 

 Carnot? 



Nice lilac is to be had almost daily, 

 while forget-me-not, pansies, and mig- 

 nonette of exceptional excellence are 

 quite plentiful. 



From inquiries received, indications are 

 thaJt the trade generally is anticipating a 

 large Easter trade. Many (may their 

 tribe increase) are placing orders now. 

 Our prophecy is tor Easter: Low prices 

 (for the season) and plenty of good stock. 



DIXON, ILL.— Davis & Baircl have 

 dissolved partnership. The business 

 will be continued by O. L, Baird.
