Flower Market Reports 



(CentimH-tl from pnge ~ I O 



mostly on Beauties, orchids, violets 

 ami iily of the valley. All these 

 staphs cleaned up well. Of course 

 the chrysanthemum held the center of 



the stage. It was a pretty good week, 

 all things considered. In view of the 

 centrifugal tendencies of the times a 

 la rames Wait and B. Franklin— we 

 would suggest a close study of Adam 

 Smith, John Stuart Mill, Ricardeau 

 and the British budget of 1910. By 

 so doing those with small places will 

 Find (| iit just how those with big places 

 have such a bulge on them, and how 

 they can so arrange it that the little 

 fellow will get his share according to 

 his deserving. Those well-posted think 

 thai the Army and Navy game here 

 en the L'.'ith will cause a big demand 

 for blue and yellow, Which means — 

 Bonnaffon and Violets. They are all 

 hedging accordingly. Other things 

 will go also. Good luck to all of you. 



' 'l he market was over- 



ST. LOUIS stocked all during the 

 last week. There was 

 so much stock in that it was impos- 

 sible to dispose of one half of it and 

 a great many carnations, roses and 

 small chrysanthemums were dumped. 

 Chrysanthemums have seen their best 

 days but there are still many coming 

 in of the fancy varieties — some fine 

 Chadwick, Golden Wedding and Eaton. 

 The fancy stock in these sold clean up. 

 Large fancy Bonnaffons sell better 

 than any just now. Violets have been 

 very scarce as predicted early in the 

 season and the few that come in now 

 have advance orders. Roses are more 

 plentiful than ever and the sale on 

 them is not strong. Lily of the valley 

 and lilies sold well all week but not 

 clean up. 



The Pure Food 

 WASHINGTON Show which termi- 

 nated on Saturday 

 night last called for the supply of quite 

 a large quantity of chrysanthemums 

 and roses, Richmonds being most in de- 

 mand. This with the Saturday football 

 games which made the sale of yellow 

 and white chrysanthemums heavy, and 

 the large number of weddings, caused 

 quite a little flurry in the local mar- 

 ket. There is a large quantity of 

 chrysanthemums coming in and due to 

 this they move well only at moderate 

 figures. Carnations are very good, and 

 this holds true also with the Hudson 

 River violets. Both are moving well. 

 There is, however, quite a quantity of 

 poorer stock (carnations). Lily of the 

 valley, thanks to the weddings, is 

 going pretty good, and the same is 

 true with smilax. adiantum and as- 

 paragus. Sweet peas have greatly im- 

 proved in quality and are having a 

 ready sale. Roses better and in good 

 demand. Cattleya not up to the stan- 

 dard lately. There is plenty of small 

 stuff to be had but the best is lacking 

 in quantity. Lilies are moving but 

 fairly well. It is expected that the 

 days preceding Thanksgiving Day will 

 bring forth large sales of cut flowers, 

 especially chrysanthemums for the 

 decoration of window displays. This 

 latter is due to the many editorials in 

 other trades papers showing the value 

 of flowers when used to set off various 

 kinds of merchandise. High class 

 jewelry stores and optical establish- 

 ments will prove among the larger 

 consumers.
