The Market. 



No particular change in market con- 

 ditions has taken place since a week 

 ago. Outdoor flowers continue to fill 

 the center of the stage and arrive in 

 abundance, although' rains and exces- 

 sive humidity have spotted many. The 

 main crop and late asters are fine. The 

 best easily bring $2 per hundred, and 



some a trifle more. On the other hand, 

 many smaller flowers are going beg- 

 ging at 25 to 50 cents. The Comet 

 varieties are now quite prominent; 

 quite a few singles are also seen. 

 Gladiolus America brings $6 per hun- 

 dred for the best. Augusta is next in 

 favor. Colored sorts like Brenehleyen- 

 sis are hard to move. 



Carnations are now practically out 

 of the market, but roses are abundant, 

 there being large quantities of small 

 flowers from the new plantings. Many 

 of these go at 50 cents per hundred, 

 some less. There are some really fine 

 Beauty, Christy Miller, Taft and Kais- 

 erin for the season. Valley and lilies 

 have each been in fair demand. Sweet 

 peas are still plentiful, but the quality 

 is poor. Dahlias are more prominent,
