ST. LOUIS. 



The Market. 



Decoration day business this year was 

 far ahead of any previous year; every- 

 body was busy with all kinds of work 

 and plantsmen, too, say they had more 

 to do this year than ever before. An- 

 other good feature was that there was 

 plenty of stock to be had and the whole- 

 salers say they cleaned up nicely on 

 everything that was good and say they 

 never before experienced such a big de- 

 mand for Memorial day. 



The market since then has been badly 

 overcrowded with roses and carnations 

 and prices have been lowered to what 

 they were ten days ago. The weather 

 has been hot during the day, compelling 

 the growers to cut flowers with a tight 

 bud. Carnations are showing the effect 

 of the hot days in their size, but there 

 are some fine gladioli coming in now, 

 especially America, Bride and Francis 

 King; $8 and $10 per hundred is being 

 asked for them and they are selling 

 well. Peonies have been in abundance 

 and have sold well this season. Sweet 

 peas are not so plentiful as they have 

 been. 



The quality of cape jasmines sent to 

 this market from Texas brings $1 par 

 hundred. Field daisies are arriving in

I have 50,000 Boston, in 3-in. pots, at 

 $60.00 per 1000. One hundred at thousand 

 rate. If you are not ready now, let us 

 book your order for later shipments. I 

 also have nice 5-ln., 6-in., 7-in. and 8-in. 

 stock. Write for prices.
