The Market. 



With asters receding in supply, chrys- 

 themums are rapidly becoming the 

 dominant feature of the market. The 

 cut is increasing daily and the shipping 

 .season soon will he at its height. Vio- 

 lets are still soft for sliipping, but many 

 are sold locally. It probably will be the 

 middle of October before the shipping 

 season gets well under way, or at least 

 until there is rain to harden the blooms. 

 There is little change in the rose situa- 

 tion, except that the offerings are grad- 

 ually improving. Ophelia shows up 

 well and so does Russell, wliile new-crop 

 f'ecile Brunner roses leave nothing to be 

 desired. More good American Beau- 

 ties could l)e used to splendid advan- 

 tage. 



Carnations have been a negligible 

 (juantity for some time; the quality 

 seems to improve but slowly. Good 

 stock should be plentiful in the near 

 future, however. As far as the orchid, 

 gardenia and valley problem is con- 

 cerned, there is little comment to be 

 made. Some days there is enough val- 

 ley to fill the re(juirements quite nicely, 

 but the receipts are rather spasmodic, 

 (iardenias are liardly so good in quality 

 and the sliortage of orchids is- still 

 acute. Tlie downtown retailers have 

 promises from the growers that there 

 will be more orchids in a week or ten 

 days, and this furnishes a ray of hope, 

 but tlie storemen are tired of waiting. 

 Cut cyclamens are plentiful and meet 

 with a strong demand. The potted 

 plants have a good sale, also. The sup- 

 ply of zinnias holds on remarkably well, 

 rivaling dahlias, chrysanthemums and
