The Maxket. 



The near advent of Thanksgiving has 

 given the market a somewhat better 

 tone, but trade lacks any real snap. It 

 may be in part the oversupplyof chrys- 

 anthemums, but is in greater measure 

 due to lack of demand. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are selling a little better, but are 

 not making profitable prices. Bonnaf- 

 fon remains the dominant variety. 

 Enguehard, Patty, Mrs. Jerome Jones, 

 Yellow Chadwick and several other late 

 sorts are in evidence. There still is 

 an ample supply of pompons. Roses 

 are in short supply, but lack of a brisk 

 demand has kept prices from rising far. 

 All varieties have, however, made mod- 

 erate advances. Carnations do not 

 seem likely to bring fancy prices for 

 Thanksgiving. Growers, as usual, are 

 holding back much of their cut just be- 

 fore the holiday. Alice as a light pink 

 is at present the leader and runs of a 

 more even color than Pink Delight. 

 As it gives fully double the number of 

 flowers of Delight, there is no wonder 

 that more people are growing it. Scar- 

 let, deep pink and crimson are selling 

 best at present. 



Violets November 22 and 23 sold up 

 as high as $1.50 per hundred. As usual, 

 a large number were held back until 

 November 24 and 25 and on the latter 

 day prices slumped to 50 cents and 75 

 cents, another instance of the folly of 

 holding stock back until the last day. 

 The same is true of every holiday and 

 special occasion when flowers are used 

 in quantity, but growers seem unable 

 to learn a lesson from such cases. 



Lilies have been selling much better 

 of late. Sales of valley are somewhat 

 small; people decline to pay $6 per 

 hundred for it. Paper Whites, stevia, 

 calendulas, yellow marguerites, bache- 

 lor's buttons and candytuft are all in 

 good supply. Small lots of white and 

 pink bouvardia are seen. Good sweet 

 peas readily bring $2 per hundred. Gar- 

 denias are scarce and cattleyas are sky- 

 rocketing in price, easily bringing $9 

 per dozen for C. labiata. A small lot 

 of Percivaliana has appeared. There 

 is a fair call for asparagus and a much 

 improved demand for begonias, cycla- 

 mens and other pot plants.
