NEW YOEK, 



The Market. 



The close of August finds the cut 

 flower market in pretty poor shape, 

 not worse, perhaps, than in other years, 

 but more noticeable on account of a 

 previous run of good months. The de- 

 mand for stock is at the minimum, and 

 the supply is overlarge; conseijuently, 

 prices on almost everything have top- 

 pled, and even at that the iceboxes at 

 night tell a story anything but inter- 

 esting to growers. Staples suffer with 

 the rest of commodities common to the 

 season, and congestion is rapid and un- 

 avoidable. t)utdoor fiowers predom- 

 inate and we.-ither conditions favor the 

 situation. (Madioli continue in abun- 

 dant sup]ily, and, with asters of fairly 

 good quality, furnish stock which forms 

 the main rcciuirenient of retailers. 

 Dahlias are coming in gre;iter quantity 

 than ordinarily at this season and are a 

 problem for the commission man; choice 

 v.'irieties on good stems move fairly 

 well, especially fiowers which in cutting 

 encr(iach upon the jdant growth liber- 

 ally in order to provide stems to meet 

 decoration re(|iiirenients, but the gen- 

 eral run of stock, short in st(>ni and 

 mussed in flower head, is hard to move 

 at 10 cents jx'r bunch or less; in fact, 

 some arrivals cannot be given away. 



Roses are arriving in (luantify, ;ind 

 the quality generally is gooil. There 

 is a small demand for them, ;ni(l prices 

 have gone down to less than $\ per 

 hundred for tiie No. 2 grade. Retailers
