The Market. 



The cut flower market for last week 

 has made the prices of stock increase, 

 as the demand was heavy. This is ac- 

 counted for by the school graduating 

 exercises and the abundance of funeral 

 work. The demand for cut flowers in 

 the graduating exercises has increased 

 somewhat. Red roses and carnations 

 held the lead over other colors. 



There was an abundant supply of 

 roses, which went well, and none were 

 left on hand at the close of last week. 

 Roses are still holding up well, while 

 carnations have gone backward consid- 

 erably. A good supply of cut lilies has 

 just commenced to come in and they 

 are the best that have been on the mar- 

 ket for some time.* Sweet peas are 

 plentiful and better than usual for this 

 time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



Samuel Murray says that the com- 

 mencement exercises are demanding 

 more stock each year and that he has 

 bad a large increase over last year. 



The W. L. Rock Flower Co. is send- 

 ing in some exceptionally fine carna- 

 tions, roses and cut lilies. The com- 

 pany reports that decorating was heavy 

 last week. 



The Peterson Floral Co. is still busy 

 planting out bedding stock and says 

 that business has been good for the last 

 several weeks. 



Arthur Newell was busy all week. 

 The graduating exercises almost cleaned 

 him up in the cut flower line; his busi- 

 ness doubled over last year's of this 

 kind. 



Roses went well with Henry Kusik & 

 Co. last week. Carnations are moving 

 more slowly. The firm is receiving some 

 exceptionally good consignments of 

 lilies, which are going fast. 



The Alpha Floral Co. is going to put 

 a refrigerating plant of its own in the 

 store, which will be a great improve- 

 ment. 



The Geo. M. Kellogg Flower & Plant 

 Co. had several nice decorations last 

 week. Carnations are holding up well, 

 but roses are a little off crop. This 

 company received a nice shipment of 

 palms recently.^ , ^,
