Tlie Market. 



In the last three weeks we have had 

 a great variety of weather, from the 

 coldest in forty years, for a few days, 

 to about the warmest in that length 

 of time. Thanksgiving day the ground 

 was white with snow from a 5-inch fall 

 a few days before. 



The trade for the holiday was fair; 

 in some cases it exceeded that of last 

 year. % However, money seemed to be 

 scarce, and more charging was done. 

 Flowers were plentiful. Mums were 

 excellent. Major Bonnaffon still holds 

 the lead in yellow; Golden Chadwick is 

 not far behind. For good whites, 

 Chadwick and Eaton were in the lead, 

 and in pink Maud Dean and Decem- 

 ber Gem. 



Carnations are looking fine, but are 

 rather soft and are poor keepers. The 

 demand exceeds the supply. Paper 

 Whites are a drug on the market and 

 the wholesalers almost have to give 

 them away. Boses look fine. Hadley 

 is a hard one to beat. Some Mock 

 are to be seen. Street venders did a 

 large business for the holiday. 



Azaleas have made their appearance, 

 but there is not much demand for 

 them. 



Various Notes. 



F. F. Sheehan reports trade good for 

 Thanksgiving and ahead of last year. 



S. A. Saunders is having his deliv- 

 ery car newly painted and is busy get- 

 ting ready for Christmas trade. 



Carnations are in full crop at N. 

 F. Higgins' greenhouses and some fine 

 Enchantress, in three colors, and 

 White Wonder are being cut. Some 

 fine poinsettias for Christmas trade are 

 coming along nicely. F. J. C.
