fact, anything in the rose line was 

 placed on advance orders as soon as it 

 came in. Carnations were also scarce. 

 The extra fancies went up to $20 per 

 hundred and few were sold under $15 

 per hundred. Such scarcity and such 

 high prices were never experienced be- 

 fore by the oldest retailer. 



Sweet peas in extra long fancies 

 brought as high as $6 per hundred, while 

 inferior grades brought from $3 to $5 

 per hundred and the growers had clean 

 sales. Almost the only flowers that 

 have gone down in price since the 

 holidays are orchids and lily of the 

 valley. Valley is now down to $15 per 

 hundred and good stock can be obtained 

 at that price. Violets were in good sup- 

 ply all the week and the price is down to 

 $1 per hundred for extra good stock.
