. The Weekly Florists* Review. 





prices remain low. The best carnations 

 can be bought for $2.50 per hundred, and 

 short-stemmed stock at about half that 

 price. Mums continue to flood the mar- 

 ket. The quality throughout is excellent 

 and the prices are low. The best indoor 

 stock does not net the growers over $15 

 per hundred, and they move slowly even 

 at that price. Good roses are scarce and 

 are quickly bought up. Maidenhair fern 

 is one of the scarcest articles. Valley has 

 been in big demand and all the available 

 supply has been bought up. Other green 

 stock is moving well. Violets, with the 

 advent of longer nights and plenty of 

 foggy weather, are coming into market 

 longer of stem and with better color. 

 They cost the stores 75 cents per dozen 

 bunches. A few narcissi have made their 

 appearance. Paper Whites cost the re- 

 tailers $1.50 per hundred. Japanese lil- 

 ies, with the exception of a few longi- 

 florum, are over for the season. 



The retailers have had a goodly supply 

 of funeral orders and a few first-class 

 weddings have also added to the quota 

 of trade, but what we need more than 

 anything else is a stiff rain or two to 

 start business going. 



Various Notes. 



Peter Thiesen, of Golden Gate, will 

 shortly commence the erection of several
