The Market. 



There has been little change in the 

 market during the laat week. The 

 weather has been cloudy, and carna- 

 tions are a little soft, but everything 

 deems to be producing a good ciit. 

 Roses continue . to be the most plenti- 

 ful flowers, but there is a better va- 

 riety than there has been for some 

 time, violets, sweet peas and lilies be- 

 ing more in evidence, while valley is 

 beginning to come in normal quantities. 

 The stores are filled with primulas and 

 cyclamens, and made-up boxes are more 

 iu evidence than at any time this win- 

 ter. 



Various Notes, 



The Joy Floral Co. reports that 

 while the new yellow carnations sold 

 well the first tew days, the demand 

 seemed to cease as soon as they came 

 to be considered something that any- 

 one could get. The company will plant 

 uone of them next season, but are 

 planting considerably more than a thou- 

 sand Hoosier Beauty roses. 



The Alclntyre 1" loral Co. is busy prop- 

 agating or working over the beds for 

 next season. The beds for mums are 

 being deepened to about three feet and 

 filled with soil that should produce any- 

 thing. Then peas are being planted, 

 with the expectation of removing only 

 the top soil when they are done and 

 renewing it before planting next year's 

 mums. 



Mr. Waine, who has liatl a small 

 place as a side line for some years, is 

 talking of selling out, as his other busi- 

 ness occupies so much of his time that 

 he is unable to give the greenhouse the 

 attention necessary to make it profit- 

 able. He will retain the small liouse 

 tor private use. 



J. F. Corbitt, who has been growing 

 vegetable plants as a side line for the 

 last two or three years, will grow a 

 much increased number this season. 



Geny Bros, have been busy with fu- 

 neral work the last few days. They 

 are cutting heavily of orchids at pres- 

 sent, considering the limited number of 

 plants they grow. They say that the 

 profit is not in the number of plants 

 they have but in the number of blooms 

 they can cut. 



At Hillcrest School Farm the first 

 Buddleia Asiatica is in bloom. The 

 panicles are not so wide as I had sup- 

 posed and the color is not absolutely 

 white, yet I believe that the plant has 

 a great future, especially where it 

 proves hardy in the open. It seems to 

 be a freer bloomer than variabilis, if 

 such a thing be possible, and it is the 

 most deliciously fragrant bloom that 1 

 remember having smelled. F. B.
