ber 1 and 2 the arrivals of everything 

 were light and good prices for all flow- 

 ers were maintained. There was a 

 marked shortage of American ^^eauties. 

 Prices should hold well until after 

 Christmas for. Beauties, and. also for 

 Hadley, the only real Competitor of 

 Beauty. Of other roses there has been 

 a. light supply. Prices for the best of 

 the teas are higher all along the line. 

 Nothing under 3 cents was the rule 

 at the week's end and from that up to 

 $12 per hundred. Orchids have been 

 kings for a day and for ten days, the 

 advance being gradual; 75 cents seems 

 to be top at present, though some

 season of triumph, thanks to Yale and 

 a general return of their popularity. 



Since Thanksgiving carnations have 

 been selling at from $2 to $4 per hun- 

 dred. November 29 and 30 an effort 

 to fix the top price at $6 met with se- 

 rious objections from the professional 

 buyers, and the drop was sudden and 

 decisive.. 



The shortage in gardenias is abnor- 

 mal. Good flowers are worth $4 and 

 even $5 per dozen. Larger shipments 

 are cxpec+ed soon. Lilies of all kinds 



are higher, $8 per hundred being the 

 average quotation for longiflorum. 

 Valley continues strong, with $6 as the 

 top price. Calendulas, callas, mignon- 

 ette, narcissi, pansies and southern 

 gladioli are abundant. 



The supply men have hemlock, oak 

 leaves, wild smilax, pine, mistletoe, red 

 berries and unlimited stocks of wreaths 

 holly and southern and northern ever- 

 greens.
