Tlie Market. 



Last week's business in cut liowers, 

 while good, was not much above the 

 ordinary. The demand was steady, but 

 somewhat limited, and the small sup- 

 ply easily took care of all needs. Con- 

 siderable of the stock is showing the 

 effects of the fortnight of cloudy 

 weather we had up to the first of this 

 week, with the exception of two hours 

 on Friday. 



The rose supply continues large 

 enough to meet all present requirements 

 and meets with an active demand. The 

 American Beauty supplj' is good. Car- 

 nations are plentiful and good stock 

 sells readily. Lily cuts are sufficient 

 for present needs. Valley, orchids and 

 violets are meeting with an active call 

 for the Christmas and New Year's 

 business. Other offerings include nar- 

 cissi, both the Paper Whites and yel- 

 lows, Roman hyacinths, callas, stevias, 

 sweet peas, wallflowers, forget-me nots 

 and primroses. The supply of both 

 decorative and Christmas greens is 

 large. 



Various Notes. 



C. E. Critchell reports that if the 

 present strong demand for supplies is 

 any indication at all of what Christmas 

 business will be, the business for that 

 day is bound to be good. 



E. G. Gillett has been getting in some 

 of the fine single violets from George 

 Hopp, Grand Rapids, Mich. They sell 

 readily. 



P. J. dinger went to New Castle, 

 Ind., Monday, December 14, to estimate 

 the Christmas cut from his plant there. 



Both C. J. Jones and Otto Walke, 

 who have been ill for the last fort- 

 night, are again at their desks. 



Visitors include F. W. Romer, rep- 

 resenting the Briarcliff Greenhouses, 

 Scarboro, N. Y.; F. R. and P. M. Pier- 

 son, Scarboro, N. Y., and Mrs. .T. R. 

 .lohnston, Middletown, O. C. IT. H.

 Bccurely together by a heavy 

 sheet of galvanized steel, held 

 in place by galvanized round 

 headed screws of extra length. 

 You can easily see from this 

 illustration how far the purlin 

 Lug Brace extends along the 

 under faces of the Angle Purlin, 



uniting it securely to the rafter 

 .and stiffening it against the 

 additional strain of the long 

 ippacing of 12 feet 4 inches be- 

 tween rafters.

 rods, which stiffen the long span 

 of the ridge between rafters.
