The Market. 



onsidering the time of the season, 

 demand at the wholesale markets 

 t up exceedingly well all last week, 

 ittle is coming in now that can be 

 ed fancy stock except in gladioli, 

 trade is buying sparingly these hot 



days and cut stock for window display 

 is out of the question at present. 



The last few days in June saw much 

 activity in the end of the season for

 calendulas and snapdragons are having 

 their usual good demand. 



In green goods new flat ferns are mov- 

 ing well and there is a big demand daily 

 for asparagus and fancy ferns.
