ports an excellent demand for small

A. L. Vaughan, of Vaughan & Sperry, 

 says the carnation growers have either to 

 grow fewer carnations and better ones, 

 or to accept the verdict of the buyers 

 that the carnation must be a cheap 

 flower. He says only the best white and 

 Enchantress have had a real demand the 

 last few days.

A. L. Bandall says that he does not 

 agree with those who insist that the price 

 of cut flowers is going down. He be- 

 lieves that each square foot of glass is 

 today returning the growers as much 

 money as it ever did. He agrees that it 

 takes a better flower to get the money, 

 but says the growers are producing the 

 better goods.

 rists, both downtown and in the west 

 end. The florists who are situated north 

 and south, too,, say they did a nice busi- 

 ness last week. 



Cut stock is selling cheap among the 

 retailers downtown. They say transient
