The Market. 



The market is well supplied witk 

 flowers in all lines in season and the 

 quality is excellent for the time of year, 

 owing to the recent cool weather. 

 Spring is backward in this section. 

 While some really warm weather is 

 usually experienced about the end of 

 April, there is no sign of it yet; it 

 seems likely that we shall jump into 

 summer conditions all at once. Judging 

 from the present state of peony plant- 

 ings, there will not be much in the way 

 of flowers for Memorial day, except 

 possibly the old officinalis types. 



Eoses are rather more plentiful in 

 both American Beauty and hybrid teas. 

 The former move fairly well, but the 

 prices for special grades have declined 

 somewhat, the top price at the begin- 

 ning of this week being about $50 per 

 hundred. For hybrid teas the demand 

 is somewhat better and the supply has 

 evened up a little, short grades being 

 in more nearly adequate supply; spe- 

 cial grade blooms are bringing as much 

 as $40 per hundred for selected flowers 

 in one or two leading varieties, with 

 $15 per hundred for ordinary grades 

 and lower grades from $12 down to $2 

 per hundred. 



Carnations are in only moderate sup- 

 ply, growers evidently holding all they 

 can for the Mothers' day sales during 

 the latter part of this week. About $4 

 per hundred is top price for ordinary 

 stock, with selected flowers bringing $6 

 per hundred. Inferiors are bringing $2 

 and $3 per hundred. A few Laddie 

 bring as much as $8 per hundred. The 

 quality generally is good. 



Spring flowers have not shortened up 

 so much as might be expected and ar- 

 rivals still are somewhat heavy, al- 

 though confined to tulips and narcissi. 

 The prices of the former are 25 to 75 

 cents per bunch and of the latter 35 to 

 50 cents. 



Cattleyas are quite plentiful and of 

 only medium quality; consequently 

 movement is slow. Selected flowers are 

 bringing $50 per hundred, with others 

 down to $25 per hundred and leftovers 

 at much less. Gardenias are abundant, 

 but the quality is poor; a few flowers
