The Market 



The volume of business done Thanks- 

 giving eanic up to previous years, al- 

 though it appears that prices ruled some- 

 what high on some lines, especially car- 

 nations. More could have been sold had 

 quotations been a little more attractive 

 for the buyers early in the week. It 

 seems to be a mistake to boost prices on 

 cut flowers for this holiday. Some stock 

 was held back, especially carnations, 

 causing an over-supply on the last days 

 and there was a sharp drop in prices. 

 This stock could have been worked off at 

 a much better average price had it been 

 shipped in regularly prior to Thanksgiv- 

 ing. The demand for chrysanthemums was 

 brisk and first class blooms brought a 

 good figure but there were many small 

 and inferior flowers on the market. Vio- 

 lets sold well; quality has been good. 

 Several large decorations for Thanks- 

 giving cleaned up considerable green 

 stock. 



Varioui Notes. 



The Florists' Club held the regular 

 meeting Tuesday, December 5, and final 

 matters pertaining to the recent flower 

 show were taken up. 



Some holly has made its appearance in 

 this market but indications are that thei-e 

 will not be an over-supply this year. 

 Reports are that southern holly is of in- 

 ferior quality. Bouquet green is coming 

 in very slowly. This article will be 

 scarce for the holidays. Incog.
