The Market. 



There was little clianjje in the market 

 or business last week, although the lat- 

 ter Avas livened-jjomewhat by a heavy 

 call for funeral work. Prices on stock 

 remain al)ont the same. 



Carnations were selling for ^l.-ld and 

 $2 per liundred. The (piality of the 

 .stock offered was inferior. The blooms 

 are smaller and the stems are brittle 

 and often crooked. The sujiply of roses 

 meets all demands. Shawyer and 

 Ojjhelia sell best. Killarney and Wliite 

 Killarney .are coming in inferior qual- 

 ity. The demand for American Beauty 

 is not large. Valley is good, but does 

 not sell readilv.

CHOICE EASTER LILIES ALL SUMNER

Mention The Reriew when yon write. 



Easter lilies are in large supply and 

 sell well at low prices. Sweet peas are 

 of jioor (piality. A ([uantity of outdoor 

 llowers continues to arrive. They in- 

 clude lemon lilies, gaillardias, larkspurs, 

 sweet Williams and peonies. The lat- 

 ter are l)econiing plentiful and move 

 easily. 



Indoor gladioli sell well, as do daisies 

 in ])ink, white and yellow. There is a 

 constant diMnand fc>r bachelor's buttons 

 foi' jiatriotic baskets and l)onipiets. Iris 

 still is jilentifnl, but is beginning to 

 drag. 



New dagger and fancv ferns have ar- 



rived and were welcomed by the trade. 

 A (piantity of asparagus is in the mar- 

 ket and smilax is more plentiful. Palms 

 and ferns sell well. There is a good 

 call for gloxinias and Canterbury bells 

 in ])ots'. 



Various Notes.

 Auxiliary of the Florists' Association 

 was held June 20 at the home of Mrs.

 the Red Cross. Plans were made for 

 refreshment booths at the peony show
