Beauties are in small supply and cut 

 little figure in the market. A few fancy 

 Hadley sell as high as from $40 to $50 

 per hundred, but the general run of 

 hybrid teas sell at from $2 to $16 per 

 hundred. Carnations have weakened 

 even more than roses and many are now 

 sold at $2, while $4 is the limit for se- 

 lect stock. Sweet peas are in heavy 

 supply. Short-stemmed stock is sold at 

 the rate of 300 for $1, while select, long- 

 stemmed flowers realize up to $2. Vio- 

 lets are weak and 75 cents is now top 

 price, with many selling lower. 



Lilies remain slow and there is a sur- 

 plus of callas for the first time this sea- 

 son. Daffodils hold up rather better 

 than other flowers. Calendulas, mig- 

 nonette, myosotis and marguerites are 

 all selling rather poorly at present. 

 Some good St. Brigid anemones are com- 

 ing in. These, with iris, are the most 

 recent additions to the varieties of 

 bulbs offered. There are still a good 

 number of Cattleya Trianae, while 

 Schroeder8B has also appeared. Cypripe- 

 diums are quite scarce. Asparagus is 

 in short supply and selling well.
