too plentiful and prices fell to $15 per 

 thousand, which was considered a good 

 price at the end of the week. Beau- 

 ties alone held up well. Extra fine 

 Killarney, Ward, Ophelia and Eussell 

 are coming in. Carnations, too, are ar- 

 riving in large quantities. Prices on 

 these range from $1 to $3 per hundred.

 good prices. Violets are becoming bet- 

 ter in quality and bring from 25 cents 

 to 35 cents per hundred. Easter lilies 

 are not overplentiful and the demand 

 for them is large. Asparagus is in 

 large demand; also adiantum and 

 smilax. Fancy ferns sell well at all 

 l;^mes.
