Gentlemen:- ^ 



A few weeks ago I started a small card in the 

 Retailers' Telegraph Delivery department of The Review. 



I have paid you only 13.50 so far. And this is . 

 what happened: 



I received orders for Wyoming delivery at Ghriet- 

 mas amounting to |143.50. 



I think that is doing fairly well. 



Respectfully yours,

The Market. 



After passing through a trying week, 

 with low prices, it was comforting in 

 the extreme to have a decidedly bet- 

 ter day January 16, and January 18 

 started a new week rather promisingly. 

 There are strong hopes that the Janu- 

 ary slump is Hearing its end and that 

 conditions will become more nearly nor- 

 mal. This is a consummation devoutly 

 to be wished, for business has been de- 

 cidedly discouraging of late for grow- 

 ers and salesmen. 



Roses, after a hard week, are doing 

 somewhat better, but with some decline 

 ill values. .lannary 1(5 saw a really 

 good clean-up and January 18 also 

 proved to be a good day. The same 

 varieties which have proved their pop- 

 ularity, such as Ophelia, Russell, Had- 

 ley, Killarney Queen and Sunburst, are 

 still in best call. Sunburst, from its 

 superior size, will in large measure dis- 

 place Ward another year. Carnations 

 sold at low prices nearly all of last 

 week; violets also had a weak market; 

 in fact, nothing sold well with the ex- 

 ception of yellow marguerites, English 

 primroses. Trumpet daffodils and one or 

 two flowers which were only procurable 

 in small lots. 



Sweet peas are good. So far daffo- 

 dils have sold satisfactorily. Guern- 

 sey Golden Spurs are good. Among 

 tulips, a nice lot of Thomas Moore is 

 now appearing. There is an abundance 

 of fine lilies and callas are in good 

 supply. Much inferior vaflley comes in.
