price lists of the local wholesalers. 

 Usually in previous years the advance 

 prices have been high and the market 

 has broken the day before Christmas, 

 vv^hen the big supply came in at the last 

 moment from growlers who held back, 

 but this would not happen this year, the 

 leading growers asserted; they said 

 stock would be scarce, even with plenty 

 of clear weather. 



Roses last week were of the best qual- 

 ity, especially in Premier and Ophelia. 

 Russell and Columbia sold well. Prices 

 on the choice stock advanced greatly, 

 especially on Premier and Russell, which 

 are up to $75 per hundred. There was 

 a big call for White Killarney. Red 

 roses were scarce and the price on Mi- 

 lady was high and the demand large. 



Carnations had the biggest demand 

 in years, especially from outside, show- 

 ing plainly that carnations are scarce 

 all over the countrvi Advance orders 

 at all the wholesale markets were more 

 than the supply would be. 



Mums were in better supply than 

 was expected. Many of the late va- 

 rieties were held back for Christmas. 

 Among them were Chadwick, Nonin 

 and Golden Wedding. There was a fine 

 sui)ply of pompons for Christmas, as 

 many fine late yellows were in, many 

 of these having been saved for Christ- 

 mas cutting. 



In the miscellaneous class the market 

 had a good supply for Christmas, in- 

 cluding Paper Whites, A-ellow narcissi, 

 sweet peas, calendulas, stevia, extra 

 long poinsettias and mignonette. Val- 

 ley was scarce, but a good supply of 

 orchids, both cypripediums and cat- 

 tleyas, was looked for. 



In greens, flat ferns, adiantum, smi- 

 lax, leucothoe, galax, Mexican ivy and 

 Asparagus plumosus and Sprengeri had 

 a big call.
