CHICAGO. 



The Great Central Market 



Convention week is always a dull one 

 in this market and this year it was no 

 exception to the rule. This week, how- 

 ever, started off with a more brisk de- 

 mand and all good stock is readily taken, 

 except the summer flowers, which are in 

 oversupply. 



The crops of Beauty are steadily in- 

 creasing and good length of stem is now 

 obtained from the young plants. The 

 demand absorbs all receipts, at moder- 

 ate prices. Of Bride and Bridesmaid 

 the supply is large, but in general the 

 quality is poor. The cut from old 

 plants shows unattractive foliage; from 

 the young plants the stems are short. 

 The best of these roses move quickly and 

 the balance is difficult to aispose of ex- 

 cept to the buyers of job lots, who are 

 not keen these summer days. Eichra<md 

 is abundant, but pops open so quickly 

 that it is hard to handle. 



Outdoor carnations are abundant, 

 though not of good quality. The first 

 cut from indoor stock is beginning to 

 arrive, with clean flowers, but short in 

 stem. The late asters are many of them 

 of superb quality, and carnations are in 

 little demand, for there are more good 

 asters than the volume of business calls 

 for. A few auratum lilits .still an on the 

 market and there are many lancifoliums 

 and longiflorums. Gladioli still are in 

 large supply and selling slowly. Some 

 of the stock is superb. Dahlias are be- 

 coming something of a problem, for 

 they are not readily salable in quantity 

 in this market. Other outdoor flowers 

 are in large supply and not of much 



use, save for window decorations. Green 

 goods of all descriptions are abundant.
