The Market. 



The weather for a number of days 

 following New Year's day was dark, 

 gloomy and cold. This caused a sharp 

 drop in cut flower receipts, and as a re- 

 sult prices took a brace and markets 

 have cleaned up remarkably well. With 

 clearer skies, such as we are enjoying 

 this week, supplies are coming in more 

 freely, but the January slump has yet 

 to materialize. Boses have shortened 

 up decidedly and are cleaned up with- 

 out any special effort, the demand for 

 short-stemmed stock being especially 

 strong. Bright colors continue to sell 

 well. Ophelia retains its great popu- 

 larity. Carnations are selling better 

 than a week ago. Prices ranged from 

 $4 to $6 per hundred during last week. 

 Violets have been rather short, but with 

 more sun are coming in somewhat more 

 freely. 



Bulbous flowers are more plentiful. 

 Paper Whites are good and in big de- 

 mand, but prices are lower than a year 

 ago. Golden Spurs are as yet mostly 

 French and hold their price well. Some 

 tulips are seen, cbiefly La Beine. Lilies 

 have been selling better at lower prices, 

 but still are overdone. Valley sells 

 slowly at $4 to $6 per hundred. Of 

 sweet peas there is a large supply at 

 50 cents to $2 per hundred. Yellow 

 marguerites are also in good supply and 

 demand. Calendulas are meeting with 

 a larger sale than ever before here in 

 winter. Cattleyas are more abundant 

 and somewhat easier, as are gardenias. 

 A good many wallflowers, bachelor's 

 buttons, primroses, mignonette, snap- 

 dragons and other miscellaneous flowers 

 are arriving. Green stock continues to 

 move somewhat slowly. 



Various Notes. 



John McFarland sold out his big lot 

 of poinsettias at the holidays. He fol- 

 lows them with 10,000 giganteum lilies. 

 Many of these now are a foot high and 

 look well. He has just received 50,000 

 valley pips, but does not expect to re- 

 ceive more, the Allied blockade being 

 too tight. 



Mann Bros, are cutting extra fine 

 mignonette, Golden Spur narcissi and 

 La Beine tulips. For Christmas they 

 had a lot of well berried plants of the 

 bright Skimmia Japonica. 



George H. Noyes had some superb 

 flowers of the new carnation, Laddie, 

 an immense pale pink variety, from S. 

 J. Goddard, January 6. Seedling No. 

 148, Corner's, is promising — smaller, 

 but of a little more taking color even 

 than Laddie.
