 TO DEALERS ONLY. 



Trade in all lines leans 

 BOSTON to the moderate side. In 



the meantime the stock 

 being sent in to the market is gradu- 

 ally improving and nobody need go 

 without good flowers for any sort of 

 an occasion. The growers are now be- 

 ginning to cut from June-planted 

 roses. The product is, as yet, very 

 weak and lias little commercial value. 

 So long, however, as the summer favo- 

 rites, Kaiserin, Carnot and Maryland, 

 hold good the rose question is easily 

 solved. As to American Beauty, much 

 of the cut being sent in is defective 

 in the bud. Stems are of usual length 

 to warrant their classification by the 

 grower as specials but other qualifi- 

 cations are missing and when a couple 

 of dozen acceptable flowers have been 

 selected from the pile there remain 

 six dozen that can never be disposed 

 of at top price. Carnations are just 

 beginning to move and a few days 

 more will see them beginning to re- 

 sume their place in the market which 

 was vacated some weeks ago. Asters 

 are on the upward course as to qual- 

 ity but not as to value. They are bet- 

 ter than at this time last year but 

 much more abundant also and the 

 selling price is affected accordingly. 

 They are well worth all that is asked 

 for them. Lily of the valley is ex- 

 cellent as to quality but moves very 

 sluggishly. Sweet peas have been af- 

 fected more or less by the recent 

 rains but they needed the rain and a 

 good crop should soon follow.

With the warmest kind 

 BUFFALO of weather to contend 



with, trade is fairly 

 satisfactory for the season. Carnations 

 are gradually leaving us and what few 

 are had are small and poor; still there 

 is some demand for them. Roses have 

 not been too plentiful, especially Car- 

 not and Kaiserin, and a good call has 

 been had for these summer roses. My 

 Maryland holds out well and some 

 choice blooms are still had. Beauties 

 cut from old plants are still had and 

 the short giades have had a good call. 



Asters and gladioli are improving daily 

 and only a few choice blooms are seen- 

 at the present, all being picked up 

 quickly. Some excellent giganteum 

 lilies are had in quantity, and the 

 market is well supplied with all other 

 varieties of lilies, but demand is not 

 strong. Plenty of peas, cornflowers, 

 etc. 



The market last week 

 CHICAGO, somewhat lelaxed from 



its strained condition' 

 of the two previous weeks. Stock
