The Market. 



Business in general has been pretty 

 good during the last week. The cloudy 

 weather has kept stock somewhat 

 scarce. The demand has been good, 

 despite the fact that Lent is here. 



The supply of rosee is a little heav- 

 ier than it has been, and the color is 

 biBtter than ever. Carnations are com- 

 pkratively scarce, and are moving 

 at fairly good prices. The quality is 

 fine and the percentage of splits is 

 small. The demand is unusually heavy. 



Valley is overabundant. The qual- 

 ity has improved. The demand, how- 

 ever, is light. Sweet peas are coming 

 in more heavily every day and the 

 •qjiality is excellent. Some exceedingly 

 fine Spencers are seen. The stock is 

 njoving freely, and little or none is 

 hpld over from day to day. Spring 

 stock is arriving in fine shape and is 

 moving fairly well. Lilies have be- 

 came more plentiful and are cleaning 

 up well,
