The Market. 



The wholesale market ^\xis somewhat 

 relieved last week from what looked 

 in the previous week like the approach 

 of a big glut. While there was plenty 

 of stock in almost everything, the mar- 

 ket was not so congested as in the pre- 

 ceding week. The retailers put in a 

 busy week, judging from the large 

 quantities of stock consumed Ity them 

 daily. While roses were i)lentiful, the 

 extra prime stock had the call. The 

 price held up well in this grade, while 

 the lower grades were jobbed off in 

 thousand lot.s. Premier, Ophelia, Co- 

 lumbia and White Killarney met with 

 the best demand. Fancy stock of Mi- 

 lady was scarce. 



Carnations, though less plentiful 

 than they had been, were sufficient for 

 ihe demand. Choice Laddies rose in 

 price, but in all other varieties from 2 

 io 3 cents bought splendid stock. Easter 

 lilies and callas were in good demand 

 and none went to waste, as in former 

 years. A number of large weddings 

 created a demand for valley and or- 

 chids. Delphiniums were of fine qual- 

 ity and the light shades sold well, 

 sharing in the demand for snapdragons, 

 tulips, calendulas and daisies. Sweet 

 l>eas, though still abundant, decreased

A New Year's Thought 



Let ua learn to feel the joy in things that are simple and universal — in the 

 beauty of the dawn, of sunset and of flowers. Let us cultivate a feeling of 

 tenderness for all living creatures, from the dumb and patient animals to our 

 brother man. Would you leam these deeper values in life? Study the flowers.
