The Market. 



Last week a considerably larger quan- 

 tity of chrysanthemums came into the 

 market. The quality of the flowers has 

 improved, the stems being longer and 

 stronger. Gladioli are being super- 

 seded by the early fall flowers, although 

 there is still a considerable quantity in

 fine lot of chrysanthemums and other 

 fall flowers in their houses.

sumption of it is expected as soon as 

 conditions are sufficiently settled for 

 tourists to travel freely. By another 

 summer, it is hoped, there will be a 

 large number of Americans visiting the 

 battle fields of Europe, and the trade 

 expects that this will be materially 

 helpful, though not, of course, as much 

 as it will in cities contiguous to the 

 steamship piers. E. B. M.
