tity of excellent Sunburst. Milady is 

 not so abundant as the others, but it is 

 still a little early in the season for a 

 strong demand for red. Several of the 

 growers who have clung to Beauties are 

 cutting good crops and sending them to 

 an active market. 



Of the items newly appearing, there 

 has been a considerable increase in the 

 supply of carnations, but it scarcely 

 has counterbalanced the decrease in the 

 supply of asters, with the result that 

 both have advanced in price. It cer- 

 .tainly has been many years since the 

 first carnations brought so much money 

 as they now are doing. Chrysanthe- 

 mums are much more abundant than 

 they were last week and some of the 

 stock is of noteworthy quality. In ad- 

 dition to yellow and white, the former 

 being much the more abundant, small 

 quantities of good pink are seen. They 

 are selling up to $5 per dozen. Some 

 of the retailers are getting mums from 

 the Pacific coast, but after their long 

 journey they do not compare for quality 

 with the best home-grown stock. Only 

 one or two of the wholesalers are willing 

 to handle the imported mums. 



This probably is the penultimate 

 week, or anyway anti-penultimate, of 

 the gladiolus season. The supply has 

 gone down sharply and consists princi- 

 pally of America and Augusta. Any- 

 one with bright-colored flowers is get- 

 ting fine prices and even the two old 

 favorites are bringing good money. 

 This has been a banner season for the 

 gladiolus growers; there have been few

and only brief periods during which 

 first-class prices were not readily real- 

 ized. 



The cattleya corner has broken of its 

 own weight; there are increased sup- 

 plies of fine flowers and the price is 

 falling. The supply of valley has in- 

 creased to the point where it may be 

 had almost anywhere, providing one is 

 willing to pay the price. On the other 

 hand, Easter lilies are scarcer than at 

 any other time this season. There con- 

 tinue to be quantities of outdoor flowers, 



most of them coming from nurseries and 

 hardy plant growers, but these cut lit- 

 tle figure in the shipping trade; thej' 

 practically all go to a few local retailers.
