The Market. 



Pompon chrysanthemums and monks- 

 hood were the new features on this mar- 

 ket last week, with other lines still in 

 rather light delivery. The general trade 

 conditions registered but little improve- 

 ment, except for the rush of funeral 

 work which developed at the close of 

 the previous week. Among the longer- 

 stemmed items, asters in the purple 

 shades are probably leaders. The sup- 

 ply of coreopsis and calendulas has been 

 increasing and the same is true of 

 dahlias. The cut of Shasta daisies has 

 been so heavy as almost to produce an 

 oversupply. In some items the lilies are 

 being used, with Lilium rubrum prob- 

 ably the leader in this division. 



With the exception of baby roses, the 

 production of outdoor roses has slack- 

 ened up visibly and the indoor cut is 

 hardly going well. The growers of 

 Ulrich Brunner state that they will 

 have a lighter cut for about five or six 

 weeks, until the second crop of the sea- 

 son starts. There has been some in- 

 crease in the cut of Russell lately. One 

 retailer has been showing Imperial to 

 good advantage, a pink variety offered 

 by a local grower. 



Gladioli offered by outside growers 

 are increasing daily and the (juality of 

 this year's production is all that could 

 be asked. There is a larger acreage this 

 year than last, but the trade has taken 

 care of this nicely to date. These flow- 

 ers have been especially popular in store 

 window decorations. 



There has been an increase in the sup- 

 ply of lilies of the valley, but these are 

 still far short of the normal. Orchids 

 are also rather scarce and this is true 

 of stephanotis, although the scarcity of
