John Sharper is catting some fine 

 mums. Some of the finest mums on the 

 market come from his range. 



The Louise Flower Shop had a num- 

 ber of important weddings last week 

 and it also has had several large casket 

 covers of late. Miss Daugherty, of the 

 Louise Flower Shop, has been receiving 

 many compliments on the quality of her 

 work at the British embassy during the 

 visit of the Prince of Wales. 



The Leo Niessen Co. was busy last 

 week with out-of-town orders. It re- 

 ports a good increase in business. 



Mr. Lynch is now manager of the 

 store of Marche & Co. 



E. Bowdler had a large amount of 

 funeral work last week. G. V. S. 



NEW YOEK. 



The Market. 



Last week the market showed consid- 

 erable improvement, the demand being 

 much more satisfactory than it has been 

 for some time previous. While in some 

 measure this was due to a rather stren- 

 uous week of entertainments, including 

 the reception of the Prince of Wales, 

 the horse show and many house parties, 

 the fact remains that the demand from 

 trade unaflfected by the doings of so- 

 ciety was better than at any other time 

 this season. 



Chrysanthemums, which are in large 

 supply, are meeting a good demand, and 

 there is little, if any, waste. Bonnaffon, 

 Chadwick, Eaton, Seidewitz and Chief- 

 tain arc leaders among the standard 

 sorts and there are many fancy varie- 

 ties, among which bronzes, crimsons and 

 wine-colored sorts are prominent. Pom-

pons and singles move well, especially 

 varieties providing sprays with long 

 stems, such as Wilcox. 



Violets have again met a heavy de- 

 mand, owing to another football game, 

 between Harvard and Yale, and brought 

 as much as $2.50 per hundred. 



Roses are moving well and are of good 

 quality. American Beauty is becoming 

 a little irregular in supply and the price 

 of specials last week reached $75 per 

 hundred. Francis Scott Key has been 

 in good demand, with really an insuffi- 

 cient supply. This beautiful rose is in- 

 creasing in popularity and in the near 

 future will likely be more generally 



grown. Among the hybrid teas, Colum- 

 bia, Premier and Prima Donna are es- 

 pecially fine in quality and bring top 

 prices in all grades. Bed roses arc 

 scarce. 



Carnations are not overplentiful and 

 prices have advanced, the best Mrs. C. 

 W. Ward bringing $8 per hundred, and 

 top grades of other varieties $6. The 

 cooler weather is making for better 

 quality, which will be welcomed. 



The supply of orchids is short and the 

 market price high in consequence. Most 

 of the available stock is sold before ar 

 rival at $2 and more for select flowers. 

 Gardenias are also short in supply and
