The Market. 



Snowilakes and raindrops alternating 

 and intoniiingling caused disagreeable 

 weather several days l.-ist week, and 

 there was a marked dejiressioii in busi- 

 ness. The gray weatlier was a benefit 

 to the extent that it reduced the cut of 

 carnations and retarded the maturing of 

 bulbous stock, which tiireatened to flood 

 the market. There had l)een some waste 

 in carnations for a few days, but it is 

 not likely that there will l)e any unused 

 surjdus for some time to come.

 Society P'ebruary 120 it was rejiorted
