 No sooner had John H. Dunlop com- 

 pleted a greenhouse for his new Dunlop 

 rose than he let a contract for another 

 for propagating purposes. The Bedford 

 Park Florists have let the contract for 

 50,000 square feet and G. Mills' range 

 is being enlarged by the addition of an- 

 other greenhouse.

The Market. 



The market last week showed that it 

 was fast getting down to an autumn basis. 

 Roses, in the early part of the week, 

 owing to several warm days, came in 

 too far open. Many of them could not 

 be used. During the latter part of the 

 week the weather took a decided change 

 and stock was in much better shape. 

 While roses are in fair supply, the pros- 

 pects are that for a period there will be 

 a scarcity. This is a good thing and

 varieties they will pay well for the work 

 devoted to them. 



Chrysanthemums have not struck 

 their stride as yet, but by the time this 

 reaches the readers they should be at 

 their height. The early varieties that 

 have been seen up to this time have 

 been of good quality and cleaned up 

 well. 



Carnations are beginning to come 

 well and, while most of them are short- 

 stemmed, there are some to be had that 

 are surprisingly good for this early in 

 the season. One commission man told 

 me that in spite of the scarcity of
