The Market. 



The near approach of Thanksgiving 

 finds the market well cleaned up of 

 practically all flowers. November 23 

 and 25 stalls presented an appearance 

 not dissimilar to the period when the 

 influenza wave was at its height. There 

 seems to be a marked scarcity of almost 

 everything. Eoses were hurt by recent 

 warm weather and nearly all growers 

 are in light crop. As a consequence, 

 prices have stiffened materially on all 

 varieties, with a specially strong call 

 for reds, deep pinks and Ophelia. Car- 

 nations are sold out soon after arrival 

 and Thanksgiving prices are ruling 

 higher than for years. Violets are 

 scarce. The heat wave raised havoc 

 with the plants, and it looks now as 

 though they would be in short supply 

 for some weeks at least. Chrysanthe- 

 mums never cleaned up so well and they 

 bring satisfactory prices. The pompons 

 are in great demand. 



Lilies are scarce and such callas aa 

 arrive are soon bought up. There are 

 few sweet peas and the snapdragons 

 that reach the market sell well, if of 

 good colors. Marguerites move at $1 

 to $2 per hundred, and pansies, owing 

 to the violet scarcity, sell well. Stevia 

 has arrived from several growers and 

 commands double last year's price. 

 Prices on cattleyas have advanced to 

 as high as $75 per hundred. Cypripedi- 

 ums sell moderately well at $16 per 

 hundred. Pot plant trade is looking up. 

 Ericas, camellias, chrysanthemums, be- 

 gonias, cyclamens, ferns, crotons, arau- 

 carias, oranges and berried solanums 

 sell the best.
