The Market. 



The week-end found the market in a 

 better condition than it had been for 

 some time before. Stock cleared at 

 steady prices and may not witness 

 another glut until chrysanthemums are 

 at their height, when there is always 

 an oversupply for about a week. The 

 stock of roses arriving is of excellent 

 quality. Ophelia and Columbia are 

 leading, fancy American Beauties are 

 plentiful and the supply of specials 

 is limited. Carnations are showing fast 

 improvement and, although there is 

 much short-stemmed stock, the best can 

 really be classed as fancy. Much of the 

 short-stemmed cut is from late plant- 

 ings — plants which were planted out 

 where they could not be watered dur- 

 ing our severe summer drought. There 

 is still a supply of gladioli, but most of 

 these are small-flowered and mark the 

 end of their season. Chrysanthemums 

 are in better supply and prices have de- 

 clined somewhat. There has also been 

 a supply of pompons. F. P. A.

The Market. 



..The fall swing of business has begun. 

 A considerable improvement in busi- 

 ness during the last two or three weeks 

 is reported. Mums are coming into the 

 market in a much greater volume — and 

 in greater variety than they have be- 

 fore. The early yellow varieties are 

 becoming scarce, however. Asters have 

 practically disappeared for the season. 

 The trade here is generally optimistic 

 as to the outlook for the coming season. 



Various Notes. 



McLaughlin & Murphy, 181 Clinton 

 street, have been having a lot of fu- 

 neral work. 



Connelly & Plunkctt, 145 Bloomfield 

 avenue, report that business has in- 

 creased greatly in the last liree weeks. 

 Just at present they do not have much 

 funeral work. At the branch store at 20 

 Belmont avenue there has recently been 

 much wedding work. R. B. M. 



Baltimore, Md. — William F. Busch- 

 ardt is well pleased with the result of 

 his advertising of his wire tie in The 

 Review. He says that of the first six- 

 teen growers who asked for samples he 

 made ten sales.
