Flower Market Reports 



(CoMti'iueJ from pa^ jSj) 



• Flowers of practi- 

 PITTSBURGH (ally all kinds in 

 season are coming 

 in "fine fettle, " so to speak. Tin- mar- 

 ket, however, is not over trowileil, the 

 supply at present just about parallel- 

 ing the demand, which is aboiit as to 

 be expected at this season. 



The frost arrived and 

 ST. LOUIS with its outdoor stock 



with but few excep- 

 tions has come to an end and every- 

 one is glad of it. Chrysanthemums 

 are now arriving in quantity and 

 wide range of quality, but there are 

 but few of the extra quality stock. 

 Violets are improving. California 

 shipments have already started and 

 tliey carry well, but the fragrance is 

 not there. Carnations are iniijroving 

 in color and in length of stem. There 

 is good demand for greens of all 

 kinds. 



The present week 

 WASHINGTON opened with the 

 weather consider- 

 ably colder and the growers look tor 

 stiffening prices with less stock on 

 the market. Dahlias and cosmos have 

 been shutting off the sale of all other 

 flowers. Roses and chrysanthemums 

 are plentiful and good. Carnations 

 continue scarce. Plenty of violets are 

 now to be had, preference being given 

 to singles. There are a few sweet peas 

 and good yellow daisies offered. Snap- 

 dragon is good. Lily of the valley is 

 again at $6 per hundred. American 

 Beauty roses, as good as ever seen in 

 the Washington market, sell readily 

 at up to $4 per dozen.
