The Market. 



The continued cool weather of last 

 Avook stimulated both the demand and 

 the quality of the supply. Although 

 funeral work was most prominent, there 

 was a good demand for wedding flowers 

 for this season of the year, and an ex- 

 cellent counter trade. In cut flowers, 

 gladioli and asters predominated, al- 

 though there are some good quality roses 

 arriving on the market, cut from the 

 young stock. Prices on these are not 

 high, however, on account of the short- 

 ness of the stems. Gladioli are slightly 

 declining in quantity, but some flowers 

 of splendid quality arc being offered. 

 In asters, Comet is of unusually large 

 size, but the general run of the asters 

 is not as good as other years, on ac- 

 count of the dry weather earlier in the 

 season. No carnations are offered as 

 yet. Outdoor snapdragons are more 

 plentiful and of good quality. Golden 

 Glow and hydrangeas are on the mar- 

 ket in large quantities. Dahlias are not 

 plentiful as yet. Rubrum lilies, aura- 

 tums and a few day lilies are being 

 shown. Phlox and tuberoses are also 

 offered. Smaller flowers, such as daisies, 

 gypsophila, calendulas, cornflowers, del- 

 phiniums, etc., are fairly plentiful. 

 Orchids are off crop. The scarcity of 

 lily of the valley causes a greater de- 

 mand for swainsona, which is fast be- 

 coming a popular wedding flower. A 

 few chrysanthemums, the first of the 

 season, are offered, but they are small 

 and high in price. Statice is hero. The 

 supply of greens is adequate, with the 

 exception of smilax.
