The Market. 



Prospects for Christinas business are 

 exceedingly bright. There lias been 

 much shopping in flowers for several 

 weeks. Prospoctivo buyers apparently 

 are comparing prices of flowers with 

 those of other merchandise. As a re- 

 sult, many onlcrs have been placed 

 earlier than usual. Growers realize that 

 the public is not spending money so 

 lavishlj' as it did a year ago and have 

 prepared accordingly. Plants to soil 

 from $1.50 to $7 have been largely 

 stocked for the average buyers, witli a 

 large ])art of tlic supply between $!.;")() 

 and $3. Of course, there are many 

 which are more expensive and these 

 will be sold too, but most preparation is 

 for the less expensive trade. Thanks- 

 giving demonstrated that the buying 

 was above normal in number of sales 

 rather than in large amounts. 



In cut stock roses are plentiful, while 

 the supply of carnations is limited. 

 Sweet peas will not tigure largely in this 

 market.
