The Market. 



Business has lagged somewhat the 

 last few days and prices on some lines 

 show considerable decline. This reac- 

 tion is unlikely to be more than short- 

 lived, as outdoor flowers are steadily 

 growing fewer, while indoor stock is 

 not at all abundant. An early frost is 

 liable to come now at any time and 

 when this comes prices will make a 

 quick upward bound. Roses are not 

 yet arriving in any considerable quan- 

 tity and prices on them are well main- 

 tained. Only a limited number of me- 



dium long-stemmed flowers are seen, the 

 bulk averaging 6-inch to 12-inch 

 lengths. Carnations are a little more 

 plentiful, but the flowers are small and 

 stems short. They compare unfavor- 

 ably with asters. A good number of 

 Golden Glow chrysanthemums have ap- 

 peared. These sell well at $2 to $4 

 per dozen. 



Gladioli of good quality sell at much 

 better prices, but a large number of 

 small, inferior spikes find purchasers 

 with diflSculty. Asters continue abun- 

 dant and prices are lower than a week 

 ago. Lilium longiflorum and L. spe- 

 ciosum remain about as quoted a week 

 ago. Small lots of dahlias, cosmos, 



candytuft, helichrysums, bachelor 's 

 buttons, honnemannias and other flow- 

 ers are seen. Valley is in fair demand 

 for weddings, while cattleyas are 

 scarce. A little Bouvardia Humboldtii 

 finds a ready market. In the way of 

 pot plants a few browallias, French 

 hydrangeas and begonias of the Chate- 

 laine type are seen. 



Annual Dahlia Exhibition. 



That dahlias have a strong hold on 

 the general public was evinced by the 

 crowds of interested visitors seen at 

 Horticultural hall September 11 and 12, 

 when the annual exhibition of these 

 popular flowers was held. The exhibits
