cdmplaint. The abnormal cold of Feb- 

 ruary ate into the coal supply unex- 

 pefetedly, but the end of extremely cold 

 weather is in sight. 



American Beauties are short in sup- 

 ply and few are long in quality. As 

 high as $75 per hundred was paid last 

 week for first-class flowers. Hadley is 

 retaining its splendid record and so are 

 Ophelia, Hoosier Beauty and Prima 

 Donna. The other novelties are holding 

 fairly well. Of the older varieties, the 

 prices for the long-stemmed are lower. 

 For the short-stemmed there has been 

 nothing offered under $2 per hundred. 



Only the novelties in carnations have 

 sold above $2 per hundred. The best 

 hundred of these could be purchased at 

 any time for $3. Large shipments of 

 carnations are anticipated for the week 

 and present quotations are likely to be 

 maintained. Orchids are steady at last 

 week's figures, which are more satis- 

 factory to the growers than during Feb- 

 ruary. Gardenias have not been in 

 surplus at any time and the prices 

 maintain their regular winter average. 

 Valley has been strong, some extra 

 stock bringing as high as $4 per hun- 

 dred. Lilies must be perfect to secure 

 $10 per hundred. Most of the arrivals 

 sell from $8 down to $5. Violets have 

 been stronger, dependent upon quality. 

 Better values are likely during March 

 and until after Easter. The street mer- 

 chants easily absorb the overflow, 

 which has not been excessive at any 

 time this year. 



The Spencer sweet peas are superb 

 and the market takes care of them 

 easily. Callas are lower and abundant. 

 Freesia, too, is unlimited, and most of 

 it is excellent, especially Purity. Daf- 

 fodils are abundant and the prices are 

 steady. It will be several weeks be- 

 fore the south begins its shipments. Of 

 tijlips there is no end; this week there 

 will be a flood of them. Only the best 

 are in favor. Daisies, forget-me-nots, 

 pansies, stocks, primula, bouvardia and 

 wallflowers, all these harbingers of 

 spring, are here.
