The Market. 



During the last six weeks we have 

 had but little sunshine, with an occa- 

 sional siege of snow flurries. Such 

 weather aonditions do not have the 

 best eflfect on crops, especially when 

 one has the Christmas season and its 

 demands to take care of, but when the 

 sun does favor us with a day's sun- 

 shine, it certainly does its whole duty, 

 as the buds seem to be just waiting for 

 a little sunshine to coax them to open. 

 However, when it comes to quality, the 

 majority of stock on exhibition in pur 

 stores is good, and in quantity it is 

 also good, especially roses. 



Carnations are coming along well. En- 

 chantress and white are exceptionally 

 good, with long, stiff stems and large 

 flowers. These varieties are in good 

 crop, and although red and cerise are 

 coming on well, the supply on these 

 shades is not quite so plentiful. Roses, 

 when it comes to quantity, far exceed 

 the carnation supply. They seem to 

 have stood the dull weather remark- 

 ably well. There appear to be but few 

 coming in the short stem grade, how- 

 ever, but, much to the growers' delight, 

 there are plenty of the long-stemmed 

 variety in first-class stock. Bride and 

 Bridesmaid are in the,4ead, while crops 

 on Bhea Beid, Richmond and Beauties 

 are also good; still there is no doubt 

 but what the demand for these will far 

 exceed the supply. Other varieties 

 coming on for Christmas are Killarney, 

 "White Killarney,, Maryland„,fi^iith and 

 Perles. > * • . ' 



There will not be an overabundance 

 of Easter lilies in the market, for al- 

 though the local demand seems to run 

 more on other stock for Christmas, 

 lilies are preferred in funeral design- 

 ing. The calla supply will also be lim- 

 ited. Narcissi, in white and yellow, 

 are plentiful, likewise Roman hyacinths 

 and lily of the valley. Poinsettias are
