Percivalliana. Cypripediums are to be 

 seen but the supply is limited so far. 

 Violets are becoming more of a feat- 

 ure and pretty good prices are being 

 asked for tliem, Thanksgiving and 

 Rugby anticipations having a very 

 tonic effect. 



The wholesale market 

 ST. LOUIS has been greatly over- 

 stocked. All other stock 

 has to suffer while chrysanthemums 

 last. All of the late varieties are now 

 coming in and the demand for them 

 has been good all the week. Carna- 

 tions and roses were so many last 

 week that a considerable amount went 

 to waste. Prices are low in all the 

 grades. Fancy stock is the only kind 

 that has any demand. Violets, lily of 

 the valley, sweet peas and lilies have 

 had quite a nice demand at normal 

 prices. 



The market is 

 SAN FRANCISCO stronger. Rain 



and several 

 frosty mornings have killed the less 

 hardy stuff in private gardens and 

 stimulating the demand for cut stock. 

 Chrysanthemums are still quite abun- 

 dant. The call for roses has been es- 

 pecially heavy this week and practic- 

 ally everything is bought up most of 

 the time before the day is fairly 

 started. Beauties are still a little

scarce and Cecile Bruner is tar short 

 of requirements. Violet shipments 

 are larger than ever, the rain having 

 benefited the stock. There is a good 

 supply of carnations. Lily of the val- 

 ley has been a little scarce, but the 

 supply is about normal again. Other 

 lilies are not much of a factor, only a 

 little cold storage stock being offered. 

 Orchids are doing very well, both as 

 to supply and demand. 



Chrysanthem u m s 

 WASHINGTON continue to be the 



leading factor in 

 the day's business. Roses are not 

 bringing what they should, despite the 

 fact that the supply has decreased 

 somewhat and those received are of 

 good grade. Carnations also sell low. 

 Tattleyas are quite scarce and lily of 

 the valley is very plentiful. The cool- 

 er weather has brought violets into 

 better shape but their movement con- 

 tinues slow. William Turner is the 

 leading chrysanthemum at this time. 

 Bonnaffon in the yellows is selling 

 well. There are far more whites than 

 can be nu)ved to advantage. Pompons 

 sell but moderately, either potted or 

 cut. American Beauty roses are very 

 good. Jlrs. W. U. Hearst, the dark 



pink sport of My Maryland, was seen 

 last week in prime condition.
