The Market. 



"We are now getting clear and cooler 

 weather. Frosts have cut off outdoor 

 flowers, except in sheltered localities, and 

 outdoor flowers, outside of a few dahlias 

 and cosmos, are over. The supply of 

 greenhouse stock has steadily grown and 

 clearances are less satisfactory than a 

 week ago. Chrysanthemums are not yet 

 a drug and are selling out tolerably well, 

 but are somewhat reduced in prices. Pa- 

 cific, Pacific Supreme, Willowbrook, Oc- 

 tober Frost, Polly Eose, Ivory, Halli- 

 day and Monrovia are the varieties most- 

 ly seen. Pacific Supreme, which comes 

 in season later than Glory of the Pacific, 

 is of a decidedly better shade of pink 

 and should prove valuable as an early 

 pink. 



Eoses are abundant and not selling so 

 well. The varieties moving the best are 

 Beauties and Killarney, both white and 

 pink. Eichmond is not yet of good 

 quality, while the supply of Kaiserin is 

 steadily lessening. Carnations are now 

 reaching the market in large numbers 

 and are less easily disposed of. The 

 various Enchantresses, Winona, Beacon, 

 Fair Maid, Winsor and Queen are largely 

 in evidence. Violets are now of good 

 quality, and although singles predom- 

 inate, a good many doubles are also 

 seen. Lilies sell out well, also lily of 

 the valley. Some good antirrhinum is com- 

 ing in. Gladioli are getting scarce, but 

 quite a few tuberoses and bunches of 

 candytuft arrive. Cattleyas are getting 

 quite abundant and there is now a good 

 assortment of seasonable orchids. Gar- 

 denias are somewhat scarce. There is a

Various Notes. 



William H. Elliott is handling an ex- 

 cellent line of chrysanthemum plants 

 grown at his Brighton establishment. 

 They are nice, bushy plants and sell 

 well. 



W. B. Goodenow, of Stoughton, is 

 again on hand with some of the finest 

 double violets yet seen. He grows many 

 thousands of these and with great suc- 

 cess. 



The New England fruit show, which 

 opened in Horticultural hall, October 19, 

 is the most ambitious and finest exhibi- 

 tion of the kind ever held in the east. 

 All the New England states are well
