the short-stemmed and lower grades, 

 few have fallen below $20 per thou- 

 sand. 



The quality of the carnations arriv- 

 ing is perfect and prices hold remark- 

 ably strong. The sizes of the shipments, 

 however, grow larger daily and a 

 break this week seems inevitable. The 

 fancies sold at $3 per hundred; few 

 dropped to less than $2 except the im- 

 perfect stock. Sweet peas are numer- 

 ous and any but the best are hard to 

 dispose of at any price. The best of 

 the Spencers are greatly favored and 

 sell readily. The quality of these is 

 superb. Violets must be first-class to 

 yield 25 cents per hundred. Shipments 

 are heavy. 



The street merchants were legion 

 March 25, and they were loaded with 

 trays of valley. Sweet peas and vio- 

 lets and even gardenias were offered 

 in great quantities by these merchants. 

 The best gardenias were selling at $1.50 

 per dozen, and from that figure down 

 to $5 per hundred. Valley holds at $1 

 to $3, with an occasional sale at $4, 

 but the supply is growing larger. Lilies 

 are abundant and prices steady at the 

 previous week's quotations. There will 

 be little change before Lent ends. 

 There was a slight advance in orchids 

 during the week, but it did not hold, 

 and Saturday saw the previous week's 

 figures repeated. A few of the finest 

 cattleyas sold at 50 cents. One concern 

 says it is receiving 1,000 orchids daily. 

 The tulip shipments again are large. 

 There were more than the market could 

 digest March 25. Prices have been well 

 maintained on bulbous stock, especially 

 on daffodils and narcissi. There are no 

 signs as yet of the southern invasion. 

 Callas are abundant, as well as pansies, 

 lilac, mignonette and the other season- 

 able spring flowers. 



Various Notes. 



A large number of tradesmen at- 

 tended the National Flower Show at 

 Philadelphia. F. H. Traendly left 

 Mdrch 25. Mr. and Mrs. P. Breitmeyer 

 were in the city March 24, the guests 

 of Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Bunyard, and 

 on their way to the show. The whole 

 affair reflects credit on A. L. Miller and 

 his committee.
