has not conduced to good business. Ar- 

 rivals continue heavier than purchases 

 and prices are not so good as one would 

 like to see them. Nevertheless, all 

 things considered, business might be 

 much worse and there is no great cause 

 for grumbling. The continued hot 

 weather has made flowers softer and 

 chrysanthemums have suffered particu- 

 larly in this respect. There is a large

 are Golden Glow, Estelle, Glory of Pa-

 tober Frost. A few fancy blooms have 

 made $3 per dozen, but the bulk go at 

 from $4 to $12 per hundred. Carna-

coming remarkably fine. Ophelia is 

 popular, as are Sunburst, Hadley and 

 Russell. Prices on about all varieties 

 continue rather low and, but for street 

 fakers, the surplus would be heavy. 

 The best Beauties are making $20 to 

 $25 per hundred. 



Violets as yet are somewhat small, 

 but are becoming more abundant. Val- 

 ley has been selling better. Lilies are 

 rather too plentiful. Bachelor's buttons 

 are in quite good demand. Some pink 

 snapdragon is seen, but the spikes are 

 short. Cattleya labiata is abundant; 

 there is also an ample supply of onci- 

 diums and cypripediums. The call for 

 asparagus shows a little improvement. 

 October 11 saw the markets open only 

 for a short time in the morning. The 

 demand was rather light locally; people
