receipts. More and more, the pompons, 

 anemones and singles come into favor. 

 They sell in great numbers, keep far 

 better than the large blooms, are more 

 easily grown and packed and net the 

 growers better returns than the dis- 

 budded flowers. 



Roses show a slightly hardening tend- 

 ency. No American Beauties are arriv- 

 ing at wholesale markets, but those 

 arriving in town make 75 cents apiece 

 for the best. On other roses about the 

 best price obtainable is $12, although a 

 limited number bring $16 to $20. Colum- 

 bia remains the most popular of all 

 varieties. Carnations are doing a little 

 better, but prices remain low and un- 

 profitable. For ordinary stock $1 is all 

 that can be secured. Fancies like Maine 

 Sunshine, Laddie and Bosalia make $4 

 to $5. Violets improve in quality with 

 the cooler weather and the color is now 

 good. As much as can be secured for 

 the best is $1 per hundred. 



There are no lilies at present, which 

 is fortunate, as they would be hard to 

 move. Callas are rather more plentiful. 

 Small lots only of snapdragons, bache- 

 lor's buttons and marguerites arrive. 

 Pansies are of good quality and are 

 quite abundant; the same is true of 

 sweet peas, which, as yet, do not sell 

 well. 



Lily of the valley is of fairly good 

 quality and sells moderately well. Bou- 

 Vardia Humboldtii remains popular for 

 weddings and the supply just about 

 equals the demand. Cattleya labiata is 

 gradually passing and has a tendency to 

 increase in price. In a week or two 

 there will be few cattleyas available. A

Retailers in Wholesale Markets. 



Business has become so bad and the 

 surplus of flowers so serious that the 

 New England Flower Growers' Associa- 



tion and the directors of the two whole- 

 sale flower markets were compelled in 

 the growers' interests to take some de- 

 cided stand and the opening of both 

 markets for retail buying daily from 

 9 a. m. to 5 p. m., which started Novem-
