for a Christmas crop. He also has a 

 fine batch of poinsettias in different

The Market. 



The local wholesale market was in 

 about the same condition last week as 

 in the week previous, crowded to the 

 utmost with all seasonable cut stock 

 and especially mums. While there was 

 a glut, it was not in the fancy grades, 

 as these always have a demand. In 

 these grades there was a scarcity in 

 yellow mums, while whites were plen- 

 tiful, with all of the early varieties 

 nearly cut out. This week's receipts 

 should show some cut flowers of Ivory, 

 Major Bonnaffon, Appleton, Chadwick 

 and Golden Wedding, the last two being 

 always good sellers in this market. 



Mums, of course, have the call over 

 other stock. Eoses and carnations in 

 the fancy grades sell well, but the sup- 

 ply of these is large, with the bulk of 

 them in the lower grades, and, in order 

 to dispose of them, prices had to be cut 

 away below quotations. Premier, Rus- 

 sell and Ophelia have the best demand. 



Carnations are arriving fine in flower 

 with short stems; good long fancies are 

 not as yet plentiful. The top price last 

 week was $3 per hundred. This is low 

 when compared with last season 



Among the arrivals last week were 

 some excellent sweet peas from our local 

 growers and also fine Paper Whites. 

 Violets are showing better color and 

 are in fair demand at 50 cents and 75 

 cents per hundred. All outdoor stock 

 is over for this season. The demand 

 for valley, Easter lilies and orchids is 

 large, but the supply continues small. 



AH greens, as usual, clean up well 

 daily. Long asparagus and smilax lead 

 in the demand.

 presided over the meeting and there 

 was a large attendance of members. 



After the opening routine business 

 had been disposed of, the chairmen of 

 the various committees reported and 

 Secretary Schaflf then read a program 

 of discussions scheduled for each 

 monthly meeting up to May, which 

 should make exceedingly interesting 

 winter meetings for the members. The
