);lcnlil"ully .supplied, ;muI continues lo sell i/eiuai-k- 

 ably well and at satisfactory prices, notwith- 

 standing the sugar shortage. A few sniall lots of 

 early Potatoes were to be seen on the market, 

 which sold at remarkably good prices. 



The first arrival of Gooseberries made its 

 appearance on the market early last month, and 

 continued to be well supplied towards the end 

 of the month : they were eagerly bought up at 

 good prices. The supply of forced Strawberries 

 was a little better than before, and prices continue 

 to be very good. 



The market was a little better supplied with 

 cut flowers, but prices remain high, more especi- 

 ally for white blooms. Red Roses are scarce. 

 Carnations are good and sufficient for the demand. 

 Darwin Tulips were supplied in abundance, 

 principally from out-of-doors. Daffodils are 

 nearly finislied now ; the chief varieties are 

 Emperor and Victoria, which find a ready sale.
