Practically every wholesaler could use 

 more short and medium stems and prac- 

 tically every wholesaler could fill more 

 orders for the long and special grades. 

 Buyers are taking the longer roses be- 

 cause they cannot get the shorter ones. 

 Premier, Eussell and Columbia continue 

 to be the principal varieties. There are 

 only a few Beauties. There are a few 

 more carnations, but prices stiffened up 

 to January 13, when a weakening ten- 

 dency appeared. Sweet peas are in much 

 larger supply; the bright weather has 

 been favorable for this crop. Violets 

 also are slightly more abundant and 

 somewhat lower in price. Orchids are 

 much more plentiful now that the crop 

 of TrianaR is on and values are one-third 

 to one-half what they were before the 

 Christmas rush. There are increased 

 supplies of jonquils. A few tulips have 

 appeared. Stevia, on the other hand, 

 is becoming cut out. 



There is- an abundance of greens.

Ladies'. Entertainment Planned. 



The committee of ladies headed by 

 Mrs. C. L. Washburn, charged with look- 

 ing after the ladies who come to the 

 carnation convention, has arranged for 

 headquarters on the same floor of Hotel 

 LaSalle as that on which the exhibition 



will be staged. It is the Red room. The 

 committee will keep open house there 

 and the visiting ladies are requested 

 to report early and stay late. A theater 

 party is to be given for the visiting 

 ladies and an afternoon is to be spent
