The Market 



It is a pleasure to see how nicely the 

 wholesale houses are being cleared out 

 of stock most every day. While this is 

 due partly because of the shortness of 

 flowers still there is a very good de- 

 mand and the daily sales roll up to 

 good figures. The demand extends to 

 all varieties and grades of flowers and it 

 goes to show that the market has the 

 right tone, and that the business ought 

 to hold up right along now. While we 

 have not had a frost yet, with the mar- 

 ket in the condition it is in at present, 

 no one wants the outdoor flowers to be 

 killed ofif, as they come in handy and 

 sell at good prices. Dahlias are having 

 a good call and are selling out at nice 

 prices. Some fine ones are seen and 

 their beautiful colors make them at- 

 tractive. Mums are not arriving in suf- 

 ficient quantities to be staple, but by 

 the end of the present week they ought 

 to be much more plentiful. The demand 

 for them at present is fine, and all that 

 come in sell out at sight if they have 

 not been ordered in advance. The prices 

 being realized are all that can be de- 

 sired. Carnations continue scarce and 

 there does not appear to be any chance 

 for a good supply of them for some time. 

 They are in very good demand and there 

 are not enough of them being received 

 to fill all orders. Boses are in fairly 

 good supply. Brides are in best demand 

 and the price rules highest on them. 

 The supply of Beauties is not as heavy 

 as it was and more could be used to 

 very good advantage. Prices are ruling 

 first class and the best are selling from 

 $3 to $4 per dozen. Good red roses 

 such as Liberty and Bichmond are not 

 very plentiful except in short stem. 

 Lily of the valley is selling fast, and 

 some fine stock is being handled. In 

 green goods smilax is scarce, but there 

 is plenty of everything else. 



Qtib Meetin£. 



It has been decided to postpone the 

 regular meeting of the Florists' Society 

 from Saturday evening, October 13, till 

 Saturday evening, Octoljer 20. It seems 

 to be the general opinion of the mem- 

 bers of the society that the time has 

 come for the society to break away from 

 the old-time methods that have been in 

 use in conducting our flower shows. 

 Our efforts do not seem to be bringing

out the results that they ought, and con- 

 sequently the shows do not get the sup- 

 port of all the craft in this city. It 

 will now be the aim of the society to 

 find out, if possible, wherein our methods 

 are at fault, and then to correct them. 

 The main object in giving these shows 

 is to educate the public at large as to 

 what is the best in flowers and plants 

 and to give the growers a chance to 

 show the public what can be done in the 

 way of perfecting the various varieties. 

 In order to do this, it is necessary to 

 conduct your shows so that they appeal 

 to as large a percentage of the public 

 as posssible. It seems to be the general 

 opinion of the florists of this city that 

 the shows as they have been given in 

 the past have failed to do this. It is 

 now the aim of the Florists' Society to 

 make some radical changes and bring

 to invite the retailers of this city to be

 them to come prepared to give their 

 opinion as to how the shows should be
