We are in coastait tondi witb market conditions and when a decline takes place yon can rely npon orders sent ns receiving swh bcMfiL 



reads this column has relieved the short- 

 age of cattlcyas, at least teiiiporarily, 

 by shipments from afar. A few good 

 dahlias are arriving and sell well for 

 window decoration and basket work, 

 where tritomas, celosia and gentians 

 also are used. 



There is nothing new in greens except 



that the effort of the Florida asparagus 

 growers to supply the retailers direct is 

 beginning to attract attention. 



For Carrsring Flowers. 



The American Eailway Express sel- 

 dom gets less than $300 in any one day 

 for carrying the flowers taken off the 



Chicago market, an ordinary day's busi- 

 ness in the active season means $800 to 

 $1,000 to the carrier and one of the big 

 shipping days just before a holiday fre- 

 quently brings the company $5,000 to 

 $6,000 from florists throughout the coun- 

 try who order flowers from Chicago.
