The Market. 



This, market for the last few weeks 

 has been in a demoralized condition. Es- 

 pecially is this the case in carnations, 

 brought about chiefly by the larger mar- 

 kets offering thousand lots at low fig- 

 ures; consequently the small market has 

 to meet these prices in order to move the 

 stock. We fail to see where the large 

 market receives any particular relief. It 

 at the most only relieves itself of 2,000 

 or possibly 3,000 carnations and, while 

 getting no particular good out of it, 

 spoils the market of the other fellow 

 completely, and, until these conditions 

 cease, we can see no relief for the car- 

 nation market here, which has heretofore 

 been a pretty good one. Roses are mov- 

 ing fairly well, considerable funeral work 

 going around ; aside from this there is 

 very little doing. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Commercial Florists' Association 

 met March 9. A few varieties of carna- 

 nations and roses were on exhibition and 

 created a good deal of interest. Baur & 

 Smith sent a vase of May, a carnation 

 that looks like a good one to take the 

 place of Enchantress; fine form, color 

 and stem, and not a sign of bursting in 

 the calyx, and its keeping qualities are 

 excellent. 



White Bros., of Gasport, N. Y., sent 

 along some fine specimens of Beacon, 

 Victory, White Lawson and others, all 

 fine, healthy, well-grown stock. 



S. S. Pennock-Meehan Co. exhibited a 

 vase of rose Mrs. Jardine, which created 

 much favorable comment. H. B. S. 



Smith's Mum Manual sent by the Re- 

 view for 40 cents. 



I INCLOSE the money for the renewal 

 of my subscription to the Review. I con- 

 sider this the best investment in printer 's 

 ink that I have ever made.^ — C. D. Otis. 



I wish that you would discontinue my 

 advertisement until further notice, as I 

 have all the inquiries that I am able to 

 take care of. — C. E. Franks, Supt. of 

 Parks, Oklahoma City, Okln. 



Jackson, Tenn. — T. L. .Metcalfe, pro- 

 prietor of the Metcalfe Greenhouses, at 

 Hopkinsville, Ky., Madisonville, Ky., and 

 Clarksville, Tenn., opened a store here 

 March 9. Mr. Metcalfe himself was pres- 

 ent and the store was thronged with 

 visitors during the day. H. H. Craw- 

 ford is the local manager.

is outselling Eochantress in this market. It sells for the same 



price over the retail counter, and our store-men call for it in 



preference. Isn't that enough evidence of its selling qualities ? 



For the grower it is the most profitable light pink that has 



ever come to our notice. It is free and early, and every bloom 



is on a good stem and salable. We are shipping fine cuttings 



now and shall be pleased to serve you. ^ 



$12.00 PER 100} $100.00 PER 1000. 



You make no mistake in buying this variety. We can also supply fine, strong 



cuttings of all the leading varieties in quantity. Write us.
