The Market. 



For several days after Easter the cut 

 flower business was extremely dull, but 

 beginning April 28 an improvement 

 was noted. We have had an abnormal 

 number of dark, sunless and rainy or 

 snowy days right through the month. 

 May opens under more pleasant auspices 

 and we now hope to get some settled 

 spring weather. Boses, with clearer 

 skies, are coming in more freely and 

 prices have softened somewhat, and 

 there is more trouble in making clear- 

 ances. Eed varieties, like Hadley, 

 Francis Scott Key and Hoosier Beauty, 

 still are leaders in favor. Ophelia, Bus- 

 sell and yellows come next in popular- 

 ity, with the several Killarneys bring- 

 ing up the rear. American Beauties are 

 in good supply and move well. 



Carnations are making good prices, 

 $1.50 to $4 being the prevailing figures, 

 with Pink Sensation somewhat higher. 

 There are small numbers of double vio- 

 lets, but the season for them is prac- 

 tically over. Sweet peas are in good 

 demand and are the most popular flow- 

 ers on the market. Easter lilies and 

 callas are hard to sell. Some growers 

 failed to flower some of their lilies for 

 Easter and these now flood the market. 

 Pansies, primroses and marguerites are 

 all abundant. Yellow marguerites are 

 plentiful and lower priced. 



Mignonette is druggy; so are snap- 

 dragons. Spanish iris is good and the 

 best colors sell satisfactorily. Gladioli
