The lilarket. 



The supply of stock has shortened 

 considerably. Everything worth while 

 tends to clear daily, such as it is. The 

 quality of the stock is none too good, 

 but it nevertheless continues to move 

 readily. The demand is rather erratic. 

 Beauties are about the same as last re- 

 ported. Their sale is not at alt brisk. 

 Other roses arrive in an open condi- 

 tion. A few good roses may be had and 

 they sell readily. The color of Bussell 

 is somewhat off, while Ophelia roses 

 open too quickly in the heat. Bed roses 

 may be had, but there is small demand 

 for them. 



Carnations are becoming poorer in 

 quality and the quantity is quite suffi- 

 cient. Some of them are not salable on 

 arrival. Easter lilies are about the 

 same as they usually are at this time 

 of the year — abundant and seemingly 

 at a standstill. Good sweet peas are 

 really a scarce article in the market, as 

 there still is a demand for them. Of 

 inferior sweet peas any quantity may 

 be had. Valley and orchids have fallen 

 off in demand as well as supply; in fact, 

 the former is extremely scarce. Snap- 

 dragon continues to sell easily, while 

 daisies, gaillardias, coreopsis, cornflow- 

 ers and candytuft are inclinec} to drag. 

 There are a few early asters in the 

 market, most of them with short stems. 

 Delphiniums experience a fair demand. 

 Greens of all kinds may be had in any 

 quantity at almost any price. A. E. 



The Kasting Fire. 



W. H. Eiss, secretary of the W. F. 

 Kasting Co., which was burned out on 

 the night of July 18, states that the 

 stock of florists' supplies which was 

 destroyed was valued at $25,000, with 

 insurance. The fire was a bad one to 

 fight, because of the inflammable na- 

 ture of a part of the stock and because 

 of the dense smoke, which overcame a 

 dozen firemen. The concern occupied 

 two floors and basement of the double 

 store. Business has been going on 

 much as usual since the fire in tempo- 

 rary quarters opened next day at 493 

 Washington street. 



Hambleton, W. Va. — "Business this 

 year has been better than ever; bedding 

 plants were sold out completely and the 

 cut flower sales doubled those of last 

 year," says H. E. Hoefner, in speaking 

 of business in northeast West Virginia.
