The Market 



Notwithstanding all the j)reparation8, 

 Thanksgiving proved to be but a good 

 ordinary day 'a business. There was noth- 

 ing extra about the demand. Prices ad- 

 vanced but a trifle and that only on cer- 

 tain classes of stock that happened to be 

 scarce, such as violets and Beauties. The 

 general report is that business was very 

 fair but that mums came very near to 

 being a drug and fancy prices for them 

 out of the question. The total of busi- 

 ness was not up to last year. '^ »* 



The mum season is about over. There 

 are not many to be seen at the whole- 

 sale houses, and, contrary to the usual 

 experience at this time ot year, there is 

 very little call for them. This season has 

 been a bad one here for the mums. First 

 to last, with but two exceptions, they have 

 not sold with anything like the snap of 

 last year. The cftuse of this is rather 

 hard to find, but £t is an undeniable fact 

 that trade in thto city this fall has not 

 been up to the scratch. 



This market is now pretty well supplied 

 in all lines with the exception of red roses 

 and Beauties, which at times are scarce. 

 Valley is selling well and so are Bomans. 

 Violets bring most any price one day and 

 the next it is hard to give them avmy. 

 Many violets shipped to reach this city 

 for the Tranksgiving trade did not arrive 

 till the fpllowing day, when there was no 

 demand for them, and they were a total 

 loss. 



Various Notes. 



The chrysanthemum show held by W. K. 

 Partridge in his retail store proved to be 

 a great success. It far surpassed anything 

 of the kind ever attempted here and 

 brought out a large crowd of the flower 

 loving public. 



A week from Saturday is the next ng- 

 nlar meetin|f of the Florists* Society and 

 a good number of the members is expected 

 to be on hand. C. J. Ohmeb. 



TORONTO. ^ 



F. C. Miller, of Brancondale. was fineS 

 15 and costs or ten days oy Magis- 

 trate Kingsford in the Police Court 

 yesterday upon a charge of committing 

 malicious injury to the property of 

 the Granite Rink while the flower, 

 fruit and honey show was in progress. 

 Superintendent George H. MDls said the 

 defendamt's firm had become offended 

 at the action of the judges of the carna- 

 tion display and took away their exhibit 

 before the closing day, contrary to the 

 rules of the show. When they were taking 

 out their exhibits the witness attempted 

 to close the door, and it was pushed oflf 

 its hing«8. Mr. T. 0. Robinette, K. C, 

 immediately filed a notice of appeal. —

 sold seven cases of nursery stock from 

 Holland November 28. There were two 

 shipments aggregating 275 pieces, includ- 

 ing lilacs, rhododendrons, hydrangeas and 

 clematis.

 the Spencer seedless apple through stock 

 companies organized for that purpose is 

 attracting wide attention. The trade is 

 waiting for the word of a competent 

 authority &a to the character of the 

 novelty. 



TRANSPLANTING CUTTINGS. 



August Eolker & Sons, New York, re- 

 cently filed a protest against the classi- 

 fication for and assessment of duty on 

 certain merchandise entered at the cus- 

 toms house in New; York. The board of 

 appraisers heard the case November 15. 

 Following is the decision: 



The merchandise which was Inyoiced as Bnxns 

 sufltrutlcosa and Buxug arborescens, was classi- 

 fied as eTergreen seedlings under paragraph 252, 

 tariff act of 1897. The board found the plants 

 In question to be transplanted cuttings and not 

 seedlings, and held that if not cuttings In their 

 present state they would be sufficiently de- 

 scribed as stocks of evergreen trees or stocks 

 of plants commonly known 'as nursery stock 

 within the meaning of said paragraph, as con- 

 tended by the Importers.
