proportion. .Judging from the close 

 cleanup of stock, it would seem that the 

 higher figures are justified, but the re- 

 tailers are rather inclined to think the 

 prices a little stiff. A strong feature of 

 the rose market is that all varieties 

 show excellent quality. 



The demand for violets is so great 

 that it looks as if the small shippers 

 might get left. The stock has suffered 

 some from the cold weather, the stems 

 being a little short, but not enough to 

 cause uneasiness. Carnations are com- 

 ing in well and good stock moves quick- 

 ly. Mums still linger, although the 

 large ones are not much in evidence any 

 more. The season has been a long one 

 and interest is beginning to wane. As 

 the offerings are light, they clean up, 

 however. There is a moderate cut of 

 pompons, but they are going off crop 

 rapidly. 



A nice cut of frecsias is coming in
