Mention The Review when yon write 



no market, as there are short Kaiserin 

 and short Bride that are preferred for 

 luneral work because they are whiter. 

 ffiUamey is of good quality and about 

 ihe best selling rose in the market today, 

 as it has been all spring. Good Rich- 

 mond are available, but there is slight 

 demand for them. 



Asters are coming in slowly, and such 

 as are good meet with a ready sale at 

 fair prices. Gladioli have become abun- 

 f^lant. There are some fine America, and 

 this and Augusta have the call; other 

 sorts bring cheap prices. 



The receipts of carnations are much 

 less than a week ago, for at last the 

 growers are throwing out and replanting. 

 The result has been an improvement in 

 the average price of carnations, though 

 quoted prices are unchanged; the neces- 



sity for the sacrifice of such a large pro- 

 portion of the receipts has passed, that 

 is all. The wholesalers generally are 

 looking for first-class summer carnations 

 to become good property within the next 

 few days. 



There continue to be ample supplies of 

 peonies of all grades; 50 cents now buys 

 good white, though the finest occasionally 

 bring a little more; but there are quan- 

 tities coming out of storage in condition 

 such that the better flower stores cannot 

 use them, and these are sold at whatever 

 they will bring, some not being salable 

 at any price. 



Sweet peas are less abundant and the 

 quality also has run down. There still 

 are a few indoor peas, but the bulk are 

 from plants outside. The fancy long 

 stock sells at cheap prices, but short, and 



especially the white, go to waste in con- 

 siderable quantity. 



Among the best flowers of this day are 

 the Easter lilies and auratums, which are 

 in fair supply and selling steadily. Shasta 

 daisies are less abundant, but there are 

 increased quantities of mignonette. 



Greens are quiet; there is enough of 

 everything, and no special activity in 

 the demand. 



All the wholesale houses are now clos- 

 ing at 5 p. m., and for Thursday, July 

 22, the hour was set for 1 o'clock, so 

 that everyone could attend the Florists' 

 Club's picnic. 



The Corporation Tax. 



The corporation tax included in th* 

 pending tariff bill is no less an injustice 

 because it now seems likely the tax will
