The Market. 



Continued cold weather has kept pro- 

 duction down to demand, with a slight 

 shortage in carnations. At this time of 

 the year stock is expected to be plenti- 

 ful. At least it has been abundant for 

 many years, so the ready sale that stock 

 is finding this year is establishing a new 

 precedent in market conditions. Of all 

 the crops grown in this city, carnations 

 have brought the best returns. Their 

 price has been exceptionally good, aver- 

 aging far better than any other year. 

 Roses have not fared so well. Their 

 prices have been good, but they have not 

 established a decided increase in pro- 

 portion to carnations. 



Memorial Day. 



The stores are endeavoring to nio,ke 

 this day an important factor in their 

 year's business. In the past years those 

 who dealt in vases, veranda boxes ana 

 filled pots for the cemeteries made 

 preparation and let business take its 

 natural course, and so progress has been 

 extremely slow. The advertising bug 

 had stung other trades but ours up to 

 the last year. It appears now that the 

 majority see that if much business is 

 expected they must let the public know 

 that they are in business; and that in- 

 stead of bringing a geranium to the 

 graves it is proper to take a beautiful 

 wreath or a gorgeous bouquet. As stock 

 has averaged a good price throughout 

 the entire year, it will be an easy matter 

 to sell a $5 bunch for Memorial day. 



The market is now experiencing the 

 severest shortage in Boston ferns ever 

 known. p, p. A.
