and carnations are especially plentiful. 

 Carnations could be bought last week 

 as low as $2 per hundred for good stock. 

 Valley is abundant, with few buyers. 

 Lilies are moving fairly well. Sweet 

 peas have been sold at 20 cents per 

 hundred and violets as low as 10 cents 

 per hundred. Bulbous stock of all 



kinds is to be had in good quality at a 

 low figure and is moving slowly. Greens 

 of all kinds are falling short of the de- 

 mand. Smilax and Asparagus plumosus 

 are especially scarce. In a general 

 summing up cut flowers of every de- 

 scription are plentiful, demand fair, 

 and prices low.
