BUT 



be sure to get the scientifically prepared leaves (at a slight advance of about 10c on a carton), which will insure you 

 against all difficulties and losses through mildew, brittle and dried out leaves. You know the balance of an opened 

 carton of the poorer makes would be troubled this way, and would therefore be worthless unless used at once. 



YOU 



pay more in the end for such leaves than for the carefully prepared ones, and who is fooled ?

We have for this year

The Market. 



Last week proved a satisfactory one 

 for sales of cut flowers. Unfavorable 

 weather, with frequent rains, spoiled 

 many outdoor flowers and clean-ups for 

 the season have been in marked contrast 

 with those of a year ago. The pre- 

 dominant flowers now are asters, 

 gladioli and lilies. Asters improved in 

 price toward the end of last week and 

 are still selling quite well. Good 

 flowers make $1 to $2 per hundred, 

 with seconds a little lower. The only 

 variety seen as yet is Queen of the 

 Market. Gladioli are steadily increas- 

 ing in numbers and it is hard to quote 

 any price on them; some make $1, 

 others thrice that price. Halley, 

 America and Francis King are the 

 leaders so far. 



The supply of roses is limited, many 

 growers sending in nothing at all. Good
