 "TO DEALERS ONLY. 



Business is very quiet 

 BOSTON this week. Reduced ship- 

 ments help the situation 

 somewhat, but even then the stock re- 

 ceived is disposed of with difficulty. 

 Roses of the most prominent market 

 varieties are very poor and practically 

 out of the running. Carnot, Kaiserin 

 and Maryland are the only ones that 

 have the requisite staying powers in 

 the torrid weather which has pre- 

 vailed of late. American Beauty is 

 among the slow ones. Carnations 

 are, as usual in July, scarce. Those 

 that are of good quality are in de- 

 mand and price is tending upwards. 

 Asters are beginning to make an im- 

 pression, those coming in now being 

 of medium quality only. Sweet peas 

 are very good as a rule. Gladioli be- 

 gin to take a position in the lime light 

 and will be more and more plentiful 

 from week to week. Pew orchids are 

 in sight except Cattleya Harrisonii, 

 which is not a good seller and the 

 wholesalers have difficulty to unload 

 the few that come in. 



Things brightened up a 

 BUFFALO little the past week and 

 whatever stock came in 

 was pretty well cleaned up at the end 

 of the weelv. Gladioli have made their 

 appearance, also asters, but they are 

 of ordinary quality, the latter with 

 short stems and flowers small. A 

 good rain is needed badly. Carna- 

 tions are falling off in supply, though 

 some good blooms are still to be had. 

 There has been a little better demand 

 for lilies, lily of the valley, peas and 

 Beauties than for some time past.

The cemetery florists have been well 

 supplied with achillea, corn flowers, 

 candytuft, etc. Greens are in good 

 supply. 



A shortage in most lines 

 CHICAGO of stock is the feature 



of the market this, the 

 closing week of July, which has been 

 a month of high temperature and 

 small amount of rain. The nights 

 have been warm as well as the days 

 and stock has felt the heat severely. 

 Some of the growers are still cutting 

 fairly good roses from their old stock 



and there are still some fair carna- 

 tions coming into the market and the 

 orders have been generally filled to 

 the satisfaction of customers who ex- 

 pect summer stock in the summer. 

 There is the usual variety of summer 

 lilies and showy novelties. Some very 

 presentable Beauties are seen and 

 roses though small are considered up 

 to the average for July. A few hours 

 is sufficient for clearing up salable 

 stock and those who must remain at 

 their post find the hardest duty of
