BALTIMOBE. 



The Market. 



Last week was only a continuation 

 of unsteady conditions which have pre- 

 vailed for the last month. Plenty of 

 stock of every description is available, 

 especially mums, which are abundant 

 everywhere. In reviewing this sea- 

 son's production of these flowers, it is 

 safe to say that the quality has not 

 been up to the standard of the Ifist 

 few years, <a higher percentage of me- 

 dium-sized blooms being grown than 

 usual. This probably accounts for the 

 immense numbers that have been, 

 moved since the season began. 



Counter trade has only been fairly 

 good and as long as we have mild 

 weather, which permits the selling of 

 flowers on the street, it will not be any 

 better. Every day marks a noticeable 

 improvement in carnations and most 

 growers expect good crops for Christ- 

 mas. The same conditions apply to 

 roses, which are in fine shape and 

 look as though they will give good 

 crops. Paper Whites are to be had in 

 small quantities. 



Greens are more plentiful and hardy 

 ferns are getting poorer and badly 

 frosted. 



Various Notes. 



R. A. Vincent, of White Marsh, 

 made a flying trip to New York to 

 attend the flower show there. His firm 

 made several exhibits of its pompon 

 mums, of which they have over 30,000 

 planted in seven large houses, compris- 

 ing over 100 varieties. Their two new 

 houses are ready for the glass, which 

 will be rushed in before bad weather 

 sets in. They intend to use the houses 

 for geranium stock, of which they have 

 an enormous stock on hand ready to be 

 shipped on short notice. Q.
