The Market 



The feared glut and slump have not 

 yet taken place and prices are holding up 

 well, being but little changed fron; a 

 week ago. Chrysanthemums now include 

 most of the midseason varieties, the 

 earliest being practically over. Old favor- 

 ites, like Bonnaflfon and Ivory, are still 

 much in evidence. There is little change 

 in prices. Hoses are lower in price, as 

 is usual during the mum season, but are 

 cleaning up quite well. Some fine Killar- 

 neys, Beauties, Chatenays and Eich- 

 monds are coming in. y 



Violets are much more ajjatitlant, but 

 have so far cleared out well. Carnations 

 are in heavy oversupply and are harder 

 to move than anything else in the market. 

 Many of the growers now have a heavy 

 crop and, as a consequence, prices show 

 a sagging tendency. Lilies are in only 

 moderate supply, as are callas. Lily of 

 the valley is scarce, but in strong de- 

 mand. A pleasing feature is the excellent 

 call for pompon and single mums, which 

 have at last found favor with the trade. 



There are now quite a few Cypripedium 

 insigne coming in, an abundance of cat- 

 tleyag and a good supply of other sea- 

 sonable orchids. Green stock is in fairly 

 good demand. 



Variotu Notes. 



There is an extremely satisfactory en- 

 try for the chrysanthemum show, which 

 opens Friday, November 5. The date 

 suits cut blooms, but is a trifle early for 

 some of the pot plants. Indications are 

 that all hall space will be utilized. A 

 full report will appear in next week's 

 Review. 



Herman Bartsch, manager for W. W. 

 Edgar Co., has about 6,000 azaleas com- 

 ing along for Christmas and excellent 

 batches of poinsettias, Lorraines and 

 other plants. 



All tii« local bulb dealers report an 

 extremely active demand, varieties for 

 outdoor planting being in special request. 



At the Gardeners' and Florists' Club 

 meeting, November 16, in addition to the 

 lecture on "Jottings of a Journey 

 Abroad," by Miss L. L, Hetzer, there 

 will be nominations of officers for* the

 membership will come up for settlement. 



F. J. Dolansky is shipping in some of 

 the best fancy chrysanthemums seen in 

 the Park street market at present. 



Welcu Bros, are experiencing excellent 

 fall trade, much ahead of a year ago, and 

 are looking for a big Thanksgiving de- 

 mand. 



Among other chrysanthemums being 

 grown at the Eosemere Conservatories, 

 Dorchester, David Eing, manager, can 

 justly point with pride to a batch of 

 2,500 Ivory as finely grown as any of this 

 variety that we have ever seen. 

 • The formation of the new corporation 

 of the older Park street market is pro- 

 gressing satisfactorily.
