The Market. 



There was a great change last week 

 in market conditions, as compared with 

 the week previous, and business got 

 back into the old rut. The market was 

 crowded with stock of all kinds, and 

 prices dropped down to a low ebb 

 again. This is not saying that the re- 

 tail business was dull; it was reported 

 by the leading retailers as quite good, 

 especially in large pieces for funeral 

 work. According to the wholesalers, 

 stock met with a good demand, but 

 the consignments were so large that 

 they were not able to unload them, 

 even at the low prices that prevailed. 

 The approach of Memorial day will, 

 no doubt, stiffen up the prices some- 

 what, even if the heavy consignments 

 continue, as an unusually heavy demand 

 is looked for. Some heavy orders have 

 been booked ahead. 



Peonies in white and pink are abun- 

 dant, as local growers are sending them 

 in big lots; these, with shipped-in stock, 

 make the market top-heavy. Besides, 

 sweet peas in all colors are so numer- 

 ous that all the four wholesale markets 

 are loaded down with them. There is 

 also a heavy crop of roses, and most of 

 these showed the effect of the warm 

 weather. The bulk of the rose stock 

 is composed of Killarneys. Carnations 

 are holding up well, both in quality and 

 size, and . in these, too, there is an 

 overproduction. 



Lily of the valley is fine and meets 

 with a good call. Asters and gladioli 

 are limited in quantity, as yet. The 

 markets are also well supplied with 

 such outdoor stock as feverfew, forget- 

 me-nots, candytuft and larkspur. Easter 

 and candidum lilies are much too plen- 

 tiful for the demand. The supply of 

 greens is good.
