demand. Eoses are in good supply, but 

 much stock is of little value on arrival, 

 due to the warm weather. Flowers fair- 

 ly tight in the bud move well at quoted 

 prices. The rest go for anything that 

 can be obtained for them. American 

 Beauties are plentiful, but in quality 

 are not more than could be expected 

 under conditions now prevailing. The 

 new rose, Premier, seems to stand up 

 under the weather best of all. 



Some carnations are still coming in. 

 and the best bring as high as $2 per 

 hundred, the rest going downward to 

 50 cents per hundred, according to qual- 

 ity. It is expected that a few days more 

 will finish the supply for the season. 



There is a fair supply of lilies, but 

 their movement is not particularly ac- 

 tive and the icebox is called upon to 

 house many flowers for long periods. 

 Lily of the valley is more plentiful, 

 with a lesser demand, and the extrava- 

 gant prices of the last two weeks or 

 more consequently do not now prevail. 



Cattleyas are not in great supply and 

 the call for them is not urgent. Good 

 C. gigas brings as high as $1, and some 

 of the hybrids a trifle more. 



There is a wealth of outdoor flowers 

 in a number of varieties. Gypsophila, 

 in both annual and perennial form, is 

 quite popular, and moves well when of 

 good quality. The best grades of other 

 herbaceous flowers move well, but much 

 stock in inferior grades goes to waste. 



Golden Glow chrysanthemums have 

 put in an appearance, but do not excite 

 much interest, possibly because they are 

 in limited quantity, but they are worth 

 heralding as quite early. 



Various Notes. 



The Henry M. Bobinson Co., in the 

 Coogan building, has now a Sixth avenue 

 frontage to the store, which will be used 

 for the principal entrance. This is the 

 second wholesale cut flower house to 

 have a Sixth avenue address. 



Congratulations are extended to G. E. 

 M. Stumpp on the arrival of a daughter 

 to increase the attractions of his summer 

 home at Southampton, L. I. 



Interest in the Detroit convention be- 

 comes stronger. Julius Koehrs and Mrs. 

 Boehrs, of Rutherford, N. J., and W, A. 

 Manda are additions to the list of those 

 who will journey to Detroit.
