stupid prejudice, which has in the last 

 few days been apparent, against the use 

 of yellow flowers in the celebrations now 

 eommoB. Pompons and singles are still 

 coming in quantity, the mild weather 

 prolonging the cut of outside stock 

 grown under muslin protection. 



Roses are plentiful and the quality of 

 the stock is generally fine, although the 

 weather is warm. The supply of long- 

 stemmed flowers is greater, but the in- 

 crease seems to be pretty well absorbed. 

 Mrs. Charles Russell, Ophelia and Had- 

 ley roses seem to be most in demand 

 among the colored varieties, with Prima 

 Donna and Sunburst next. American 

 Beauty is shorter in supply than other 

 varieties, but there are enough to go 

 around. Every week now carnations are 

 showing improvement in quality, and 

 some excellent flowers are seen in the 

 top grades, fancies bringing as much as 

 $4 per htindred. The supply of orchids 

 is not heavy, and the choicer grades 

 of eattleyas move quickly. Dendrobium 

 PhalfiBBopsis is in good supply, and 



brings as much as $12 per hundred flow- 

 ers. Ordinary Oncidium varicosum. 

 moves at $3 per hundred flowers. Gar-S 

 denias are in rather short supply. The"^ 

 quality of arrivals is nothing to boast 

 about, and $3 per dozen is a fair price. 



A few sweet peas are coming in and 

 find buyers, but no one is yearning for 

 them. Small lots of snapdragons and 

 bouvardia are in evidence, and move 

 largely in collective sales. There are 

 plenty of lilies for the demand, but some 

 of the consignments are "green," a 

 quality not always to be desired. 



On the whole, the market is fairly 

 strong and encouraging. The prospects 

 for a good Thanksgiving demand are ex- 

 cellent. There is not likely to be a real 

 shortage of flowers, but it is believed 

 that clearances will be close. 



Bosh Deliveries. 



Many of the wholesale florists are 

 complaining of the demands, or rather 

 expectation of certain retailers that de- 

 liveries be made of stock ordered over
