The Market 



The total amount of busines done last 

 week footed uj) well, but when one con- 

 siders the quantity of stock that was 

 coming into this market, the average 

 price was low. Not only that, but great 

 quantities of stock of nearly all kinds 

 found its way to the dump. 1 doubt 

 whether ever before in the history of this 

 market so many flowers had to be sent to 

 the barrel. It was simply impossible to 

 move them at any price. And this, as a 

 rule, was not owing to the poor quality, 

 but just because the supply was so much 

 larger than the demand. Peonies were 

 tlie worst sutferers, with carnations a 

 close second. Then followed roses. With 

 all of this, though, some high grade roses 

 were bringing a first-class pric and sell- 

 ing out (dean. 



Toward the latter part of the week 

 there was a shortening in the .supply, and 

 things began to look more hopefid ; the 

 average price was better and everything 

 pointed to a relief from the glut. 

 Through it all. Beauties were fine j)rop- 

 erty and brought a good price. Red 

 roses of other varieties were also good. 

 Some fine Maryland sold out clean and 

 at good prices.

rooms Saturday evening, June 12. The 

 result of the balloting was the election 

 of the following members as officers for 

 the ensuing year: President, J. A. Peter- 

 son; vice-president, C. E. Critchell ; .sec- 

 retary. D. Sunderbruch ; treasurer, D. 

 Rusconi ; trustee, Gus. Adrian. This was 

 simply the reinstatement of the officers 

 who have served during the last year and, 

 as they have the affairs relating to the 

 entertainment of the S. A. F. here in 

 August well in hand, their election was 

 the proper thing. Now they have but to 

 go ahead with the arrangements they 

 liave commenced, and to keep things mov- 

 ing lively. 



Following the election, many points of 

 interest were brought up for discussion. 

 One point of special interest was the fact

that the financial committee of the S. A. 

 F. convention was able to make a favor- 

 able report, saying that subscriptions 

 were coining in fast, that collections were 

 good and the prospects were that the 

 entire subscription fund would be in the 

 hands of the committee shortly. 



It was definitely decided to ^old the 

 big entertainment at Coney Island. This 

 is a beautiful pleasure garden, on the
