The Market. 



Business last week showed the effects 

 of the warm weather and there was lit- 

 tle doing in the stores. The main sale 

 has been on gladioli, but even these 

 are beginning to show signs of coming 

 to an end, and the best are about over 

 with. Asters have shown some improve- 

 ment both as to quantity and quality, 

 but with respect to the latter this 

 means but little; the best are being 

 shipped in. There is plenty of Hydran- 

 gea paniculata to be had, but the sale 

 of this item is slow. The blooms are 

 exceptionally large and make a good 

 showing. The cool weather which pre- 

 ceded the present hot spell helped roses 

 considerably and slightly better prices 

 prevailed the early part of the week. 

 There has since been a slump and good 

 stock is scarce. 



"While there is an occasional call for 

 American Beauty roses, it is a hard 

 matter to get any, regardless of the 

 price one is willing to pay. Cattleyas 

 also are scarce and high. They are 

 worth $1 each and the retailer fre- 

 quently is willing to pay more in order 

 to get enough to fill an order. The 

 season is over for carnations and one 

 finds it a hard matter to get even a 

 limited quantity. Easter lilies are good 

 as to quality and there is an oversup- 

 ply, with a limited demand at this time. 

 They were largely used in funeral work 

 last week, but even that failed to make 

 an impression upon the market. 



While there are some good dahlias 

 to be had, it is rather too early in the 

 season to expect much from these. 

 Sylvia, now offered, is quite good. The 

 market for Sprengeri, plumosus and 

 ferns is quiet. 



Various Notes, 



Among the recent visitors was James 

 Harper, of F. D. Harper, Pierson, Fla. 

 Mr. Harper came north, accompanied 

 by Mrs. Harper and their two children, 

 by automobile, and they were headed 

 for points beyond Washington. They 

 reached Baltimore without diflSculty, 

 but decided not to go farther because 

 of the prevalence of infantile paraly- 

 sis and turned back to Washington, en 

 route for home. They declared the trip 

 to have been a delightful one. 



J. H. Small & Sons have been taking 

 advantage of the summer season to 

 have a regular clean-up at their store
