NEW YORK. 



The Market 



Die clear, crisp, cool weather is put- 

 ing life into the business, and once more 

 the ice-boxes begin to look lonesome as 

 the evening shadows fall. Prices are not 

 yer satisfactory to wholesaler or grower, 

 bui the retailer has his opportunity and 

 18 aking general advantage of it. 



"i he mum flow is at high tide and the 

 <lu''lity is perfect. Prices are low, it is 

 tri. , compared with other years, but 

 ^U' ntity is enormous and growers are 

 '^t; on. As usual, the big novelties are 

 'e\ and independent. These command 

 gO' 1 figures, from 25 cents to 40 cents, 

 Dui the number can be counted easily. 



Ptoses have had a hard fight of late to 

 'erii-h paying figures; too many of them 

 ^or the market to absorb, and general 

 bii iness marking time and waiting for 

 ^'' promised prosperity to materialize. 

 ^'"' best Beauties have been firm at 25 



cents, but only the selects, however, could 

 command these rates. In quantity, stock 

 almost as good in size and quality would 

 fall to 12 cents. So it was with all the 

 roses. A few of the best sold at the good 

 top figures and then came the bursting 

 of the dam, and there were bargains for 

 all. Killamey especially is abundant. 

 Every grower must have his share of 

 them. My Maryland is popular. 



Carnations are much improved in stem 

 and flower, and prices are advancing. 

 The novelties are few and command 3 

 cents to 4 cents; $2 per hundred was the 

 figure last week for the bulk of the ar- 

 rivals of real merit. The cold weather 

 may lift the violet market. Thousands 

 daily last week were unsalable at any 

 price. Orchids are extremely abundant. 

 Callas are here again, and so is mignon- 

 ette. Plenty of lilies and valley are to 

 be had. The green goods men are always 

 busy. Evergreen roping is called for in 

 large quantities; wild smilax also.

The Madison show is on this week. 



The New York exhibition opens on the 

 evening of November 3 with receptions 

 to the members of the Horticultural So- 

 ciety, the New York Florists' Club and 

 affiliated organizations. The show will 

 continue until Sunday evening. The ad- 

 mission is free. It is a grand hall for a 

 flower show and the opportunity should 

 be appreciated by exhibitors as well as 

 the public. 



Ine members of the New York and 

 New Jersey Plant Growers' Association 

 motored October 19 to Jersey and visited 

 Julius Boehrs, Bobbink & Atkins, Her- 

 man Scholzel, H. C. Steinhoff, Mr. Dres- 

 sel and other members of the society. 

 They had a grand time. The next event 

 on the tapis in this elite society is the 

 ladies' reception, to be followed later on 

 by the annual banquet.

 the first degree demands a twenty-year
