The Market. 



Business last week was about up to 

 last year's record, but there was no 

 considerable rush at any of the stores. 

 The weather was quite cool and October 

 12 there were a few snowflakes. Chrys- 

 anthemums and carnations are arriv- 

 ing later than usual this year, and now 

 that outdoor flowers have disappeared, 

 tliere is a shortage. There are a few 

 gladioli still coming. Roses are the only 

 flowers that are really plentiful. The 

 stock is good. Good lilies have been 

 short of the demand.
