good and selling well. RusscUs sell- 

 ing about the best of any. Killarneys 

 are doing fairly well but not so good 

 as the others. Ophelia is one of the 

 leaders. Carnations are showing bet- 

 ter stems and there are not too many 

 of them. Chrysanthemums arc more 

 plentiful. Chrysolora, Parific Suiireme 

 and Golden Queen being in tho van. 

 Of dahlias there are still a few. also 

 some gladioli and asters whore they 

 have been protected from frost. There 

 is a lot of cosmos, long and short. 

 Cattleyas good and plentiful and prices 

 are lower. Dendrobiums very scarce. 

 Lilies are also a little scarce, the 

 growers aiming to have only a few at 

 chrysanthemum time. Lily of the val- 

 ley is good, more plentiful than it was. 



The market notwith- 

 ST. LOUIS standing the cool spell 

 is crowded. Roses are 

 plentiful, good stock finding a ready 

 sale. The same may be said of car- 

 nations and they are also impioving 

 in quality. Chrysanthemums have 

 started to come in and will be greatly 

 on the increase in about a week. 

 Dahlias are about done, the frost hav- 

 ing nipped them. Violets are in but 

 the blooms are small and not in de- 

 mand. Cosmos are in in profusion. 

 Greens of all kinds are in demand. 



Some few excep- 

 WASHINGTON tionally fine carna- 

 tions have met 

 with ready sale. There is a heavy sup- 

 ply of both chrysanthemums and roses. 

 t\'hile the colored roses are plentiful, 

 good white roses are hard to obtain. 

 Violets are more plentiful but their 

 sale is retarded by the warm weather. 

 Lily of the valley is more plentiful. 

 There is a very heavy supply of cos- 

 mos and a great deal of this finds its 

 way to the trash heap. Cattleyas are 

 not quite so plentiful as they have 

 been. Some exceptionally fine orchid 

 pink and white pyrethrum can be 

 had. Yellow daisies and indoor sweet 

 peas are the latest offerings.
