The Market. 



Business was good last week, and the 

 present week opens with an excellent 

 call for flowers. Boses are more abun- 

 dant, but prices continue to hold up 

 well. American Beauties remain about 

 the same. Eussell is selling well; also 

 Ophelia, Ward, Hadley, Miller and 

 Stanley. Some nice Hoosier Beauty 

 roses are coming in. This variety prom- 

 ises to become quite popular. Carna- 

 tions are much more abundant and, 

 while the majority are still quite short- 

 stemmed, the quality is improving. Good 

 whites, such as White Wonder and 

 Matchless, have been selling well. 

 Gladioli are selling much better, some 

 reaching $6 per hundred. These flow- 

 ers have made more satisfactory prices 

 than a year ago. 



Asters continue fairly abundaait and 

 prices hold up well. Lilies are good 

 property and clean up readily. A good 

 mai^y Golden Glow chrysanthemums are 

 arriving; also, smaller lots of October 

 Frost. The call for these is improving. 

 Lily of the valley, owing to its con- 

 tinued high prices, is not selling par- 

 ticularly well. Buyers refuse to use it 

 in any considerable quantity at present 

 prices. Cattleyas now are in better 

 supply and a fair number of flowers of 

 Dendrobium formosum and other or- 

 chids are obtainable. 



In the way of miscellaneous flowers, 

 bunches of the pretty blue-fringed 

 gentians are popular. Some good 

 dahlias are coming in, as well as good 

 supplies of hunnemannias, salpiglossis 

 and other annuals. The call for aspara- 

 gus is somewhat improved. There is 

 somewhat more activity in the pot plant 

 trade. Such subjects as crotons, 

 dracsenas, ferns, caladiums and ericas 

 are the leaders. 



Various Notes. 



Peter Hylen, of Eandolph, has com- 

 pleted a bulb shed 20x70 and installed 

 a large, new steam boiler. He has re- 

 ceived sixty cases of Dutch bulbs and 

 has more on the way. Gladioli have 

 paid him well this season. He started 

 6,000 Panama in pots and then planted 

 them outdoors; they brought splendid 

 prices. He has practically all his 

 houses filled with chrysanthemums at 

 present. His earliest variety will be 

 Robert Halliday. All stock here looks 

 splendid. 



October 19 will see the opening of 

 the Florists' Bowling League season. 

 Ten teams are included this season, viz.: 

 Galvin's, Penn's, the Cooperative 

 Flower Market, the Flower Exchange, 

 the New England Supply Co., B. A. 

 Snyder & Co., H. M. Roloinson & Co.,

 Conservatories. The teams dropping out 

 are Zinn's and the Boston Cut Flower 

 Co. The new teams are Penn's, the
