The Market. 



Business continues to be satisfactory. 

 Stock of all kinds is plentiful, but there 

 is no surplus, but flowers are of good 

 quality and the outlook for Mothers' 

 day is encouraging. Carnations are 

 plentiful at this writing. Roses are in 

 big supply and are being offered in 

 many cases at attractive prices to clear. 

 Columbia, Butterfly and Premier are 

 exceptionally good just now. Sweet 

 peas are in large supply and sell well. 

 Violets are over for this season. Snap- 

 dragons are fairly plentiful, of good 

 quality and sell well. Lilies are in good 

 supply and clear easily. Calendulas are 

 good and are in big demand. Myosotis, 

 stocks, bachelor's buttons, daisies and 

 lupines are seen in small offerings. Bulb- 

 ous stock is shortening up now, but a 

 good quantity of jonquils is seen daily.

 mercial varieties. Will sell all or part to

Outdoor bulbous stock is making a good 

 showing. Valley, orchids and gardenias 

 are receiving a larger demand; they 

 are of good quality. Green goods of all 

 kinds are fairly plentiful.
