The Market. 



There was less increase in business 

 last week, as compared with the week 

 preceding, but some gain was shown, so 

 that the trade is beginning to expect a 

 really good winter season after all. 

 There is still a scarcity of fine stock, 

 since the greenhouse crops of the grow- 

 ers are not coming freely as yet, and the 

 outdoor crops from summer gardeners 

 are passing rapidly. The demand is still 

 slower than it would be if a frost had 

 come to kill the flowers in home gardens. 



All the growers are bringing in more 

 mums, the increase on pompons being 

 especially noticeable. Gladioli are taper- 

 ing off rapidly. This is causing no 

 complaint on the part of dealers, since 

 there was a long run on gladioli and a 

 heavy oversupply for about five weeks. 

 Asters are plentiful and enough dahlias 

 are coming in to meet the limited de- 

 mand. African marigolds are of fine 

 quality and one of the best-selling items 

 coming in. 



The cut of roses remains about the 

 same, Ophelia being the leader, in 

 point of volume, and Ward and Ophelia 

 dividing honors as to quality. One 

 grower is delivering some fancy Colum- 

 bia and a small gain is seen on Russell. 

 Cecile Brunner moves out almost as fast 

 as the roses are received. One day last 

 week saw local shops out of Cecile Brun- 

 ner in the late afternoon. Carnations 

 are showing longer stems, but they still 

 lack keeping quality. 8ome late, "short- 

 stemmed snapdragons in bright colors 

 were an acceptable novelty last week 

 and small deliveries of delphiniums are 

 also noted. The cut of orchids continues 

 light, with plenty of bouvardia and 

 stephanotis arriving.
