'The Market. 



Trade for Memorial day was rather 

 flight, as there were quantities of otit- 

 ^' door flowers to be had. The number of 

 peonies on the market was a surprise, 

 as the first part of the week it looked 

 as though there would be few. It 

 turned out that there were wagon loads 

 of them, offered at any price that could 

 be obtained. It shows that the number 

 of plants has been greatly increased. 

 Stock of all kinds was plentiful and it 

 was a hard matter to clean up in the 

 way we like to do on a day like that. 

 Carnations were quite plentiful, but the 

 quality was away below what it was a 

 week or so ago. The extremely hot 

 weather had its effect on all flowers, 

 but it showed especially on sweet peas 

 and carnations. Boses were abundant 

 and a large part of them, especially 

 Killarney, popped open and were hard 

 to move at any price. 



The plant trade has been heavy and 

 orders that came in late last week had 

 to lie over to this week. It will take 

 at least ten days to get caught up. 

 The sale of-geraniums has been heavy, 

 as has that of salvias. A great many 

 streets have their garden and flower 

 clubs, which have been doing good 

 work. It looks as though it will be a 

 permanent thing for them to get to- 

 gether and plan the work for spring 

 planting. J. M.
