The Market 



None of us has any kick coming as to 

 tbe business during August. For a sum- 

 ■er month, business held out •well, and 

 ■ome in the trade have told me that 

 fteir business during last month exceed- 

 ed that of any August for several years 

 kack. That does not sound much *ike 

 kard times in the florists' trade. 



Trade last week was not any too rush- 

 ing, but every now and then there was 

 » little spurt which cleaned out the 

 narket well. Roses were in greatest 

 fupply and they sold fairly well, but 

 there was not enough demand to clean 

 them up and, as a consequence, a good 

 many found their way into the dump, 

 and the price obtained for those that did 

 sell was not very good. Carnations 

 •f anything like good quality sell well, 

 but most of those coming in are poor 

 and, if not sold at once, are sound 

 asleep the next morning. Good asters 

 kave been scarce and the better grades 

 have brought good prices. "White in 

 any grade sold well, but in the poorer 

 qualities it was hard to move other col- 

 ors. Some cosmos, the first of the sea- 

 son, arrived last week and it was good 

 in quality. It sold well as a novelty. 

 Lilies are scarce and good property. 

 Tuberose spikes are in demand and bring 

 a ^ good price. We are well supplied 

 with green goods of all kinds. • 



It is good to see the wagon-loads of 

 trunks which are being hauled to the 

 suburbs every day now. They mean the 

 return of the flower buyers, and their 

 presence will soon be felt in the flower 

 trade. The mum will announce the open- 

 ing of the fall trade and it will now 

 be but a few weeks till we are in the 

 midst of another season's business. Let 

 us hope that it will be a good one, as 

 •'verything now indicates it will be. 



Various Notes. 



The next meeting of the Florists' 

 Society will be held in the club room 

 Saturday, September 12, at 8 p. m. We 

 Ifbpe that the members will make an 

 extra effort to be present, as from now 

 on the advice and assistance of each 

 one of them will be especially needed. 

 We have secured the S. A. F. convention 

 for 1909. We have promised them a 

 good convention and a good time. It is 

 ■ow up to us to make good. You can 

 rest assured that we will do so.
