HUNT'S REVIEW OF THE CHICAGO 

 MARKET. 



Things generally have brishteneil and 

 buying, both local and country, has Ijeen 

 fairly active, with some few heavy or- 

 ders on at fair prices. 



Receipts shortened somewhat, bulbous 

 stock perceptibly decreasing. Vallev very 

 scarce, as Is Harrisii of good qualitv. 



Smilax in great demand, with but" lim- 

 ited supply. 



Carnations coming good ciualitv, but 

 still somewhat shy in ciuantity. 



Roses of all sorts good. A<ivance orders 

 and inquiries indicate a healthy feeling 

 and a hopeful tone. 



Easter trade is predicted to break all 

 existing records for past six years. The 

 scarcity is guessed to be on carnations, 

 with Harrisii a doubtful quantity. 



CORRECTION. 



The item in our notes from Grand 

 Rapids. Mich., in last issue, to the ef- 

 fect that Chas. Bowditch is now travel- 

 ing for Henry A. Dreer, of Philadel- 

 phia, was an error.
