 is an additional artistic touch here.

H. W. Turner is in with a grand cut 

 of roses, which look as though the crop 

 will last over the holidays. The long- 

 stemmed Prima Donna and Shawyer 

 blooms are especially good.

that the people demand good stock and 

 seem willing to pay for it. Taken as a 

 whole, flowers are scarce, and it is gen- 

 erally conceded that there will barely 

 be enough stock for Christmas, al- 

 though some of the growers are holding 

 back their roses and other flowers for 

 the holidays. Reports differ somewhat 

 regarding the outlook for potted plants; 

 some hold that there are plenty in sight 

 for all requirements, while others are 

 of the opinion that they will be at a 

 premium. 



Large chrysanthemums are going off 

 crop rapidly. The late varieties were 

 practically a failure on account of the 

 frost last month, which is one of the 

 principal factors in the present short- 



age of stock. A good many Chinese 

 mums are still coming in and they 

 move fairly well. Pompons continue to 

 show good quality and the demand 

 shows no signs of waning. 



Carnations are better than for some 

 time, but they are not overplentiful and 

 still clear well at firm prices. The rose 

 cut is short of the demand. All varie- 

 ties on the market leave nothing to be 

 desired in quality, the only complaints 

 being in regard to quantity. Russell is 

 particularly scarce. The cold weather 

 of the last week has held back the vio- 

 lets to a certain extent, but most stock 

 is in fine shape and sells well, there be- 

 ing a heavy shipping demand. Some 

 nice cut heather is appearing and it
