The Market. 



There was uo marked change in prices 

 last week and Saturday saw a tolerably 

 good clean-up. Weather conditions were 

 favorable and February 24 and 25 were 

 eool, with minimum temperatures of 

 zero or close to it. The present week 

 opened quite auspiciously. Supplies 

 were much larger than a week ago, but 

 the demand seemed improved. Eoses 

 remained somewhat on the short side 

 and continued to clean up well. Whites 

 were a little slow, hut all colored sorts 

 were in good demand at prices rangiiif; 

 from $4 to $25 \)CT hundred for hybrid 

 te.'i.s. On such sorts as Premier, Pilgrim, 

 Had ley, Columbia and Madame Butter 

 fly, short-stemmed flowers realized from 

 $8 to $10 and some few fancies went 

 above the $25 mark. The sujijily of 

 American Beauties was ccniqiaratively 

 small. 



Carnations were not greatly eliangoil, 

 l)ut there was an inclination down- 

 wards. It was more diflicult to get $4 

 for good blooms and iimny went at $3. 

 Pink colors, ;is usual, were the best 

 sellers. Whites continued sluggish and 

 were overdone. Violets showed good 

 quality and I'riuce.ss of Wales was un- 

 iLsually good. 



Sweet peas continued to arrive in 

 rather unwieldy numbers. ^largucrites 

 moved slowly, unless of good quality. 

 Narcissi in variety were abundant, but 

 tulips were in rather short supply. 

 Freesia continued overabundant and 

 wallflower, myosotis and calendulas 

 were slow .sellers. Callas and lilies 

 averaged $12 j)er hundred, but were not 

 in good demand. Cattleyas continued 

 rather cheap. \alley was much im- 

 proved in quality, but the sales were 

 somewhat limited. Additions to flower 

 ing plants noted were bougainvilleas 

 and hybrid perjx;tual roses. Some 

 formosiim lilies and lilacs were :tlso 

 seen.
