NEWARK, N. J. 



Tlie Market. 



The last week has seen a great influx 

 of asters, which are now plentiful and 

 of good quality. Dahlias are beginning 

 to come into the market in larger quan- 

 tities, though still somewhat scarce. 

 They are of fair quality, but most of 

 them are short-stemmed. Gladioli are 

 plentiful. While the volume of business 

 is not large now because of its being 

 the regular dull summer period, it is 

 fully up to normal for this period and 

 the florists are generally optimistic as to 

 the coming season. 



Various Notes. 



The Washington Florists, 577 Broad 

 street, report business as good as could 

 be expected at this time of the year. 



Penek's Flower Shop, Broad street, 

 reports that funerd work forms the 

 bulk of trade now and that this fluc- 

 tuates. Part of the time there is much 

 work to do, while at other times there 

 is little. Business averages about nor- 

 mal. R. B. M. 



INDIANAPOLIS, IND. 



The Market. 



Market conditions have been improv- 

 ing, Roses are again plentiful. These 

 range from $3 to $10 per hundred. Car- 

 nations are a little more conspicuous, 

 but are still short-stemmed and bring 

 only $1 and $2 per hundred. Gladioli 

 are keeping pace with the demand and 

 are fairly good in quality and make 

 from $4 to $8 per hundred. Asters are 

 not so abundant as previously. Good 

 ones are even scarcer than before, 

 while the poor ones have deteriorated 

 so that now they are unfit for use. A 

 few more dahlias have put in an ap- 

 pearance, but the supply is still small. 



Cosmos is in the market. Other mis- 

 cellaneous stock includes buddleia, cen- 

 taurea, tuberoses, wool flowers and a 

 few snapdragons and delphinium^. 

 Green goods have been in fair supply.
