There were days during- the past week when business was fairly active in the wholesale district. That was brought about more by the cool wave that cut down the supply of roses, than by any great increase in the de- mands. It is true, that in some sec- tions, the asters are now well cut out, but it is scarcely noticeable in the market, and it is probable there will be more or less aster stock until frost comes. Dahlias, panicles of Hydrangea paniculata and tritomas are all plen- tiful enough to be factors in the mar- ket, and at some stores it has been said that the hydrangeas and tritomas sell well, which is not surprising as they are to some extent novel and at- tractive. The quality of rose stock is steadily improving, both in length of stem and quality of bloom, and less of the washed out colors are now seen. A few very fair chrysanthemums have arrived and from now on. the supply will be on the increase. Considerable quantities of short carnations are on the market, but it would appear, con- sidering the low price for which they sell, that it would be better to top the plants and save their strength for the future. There is enough of both cattleyea and oncidium orchids to sup- ply all demands. September 6.—This being Labor day and a public holiday not much busi- ness was expected and though there was some buying in the morning, most of the wholesale stores closed at noon. NOTES. William Plumb, who spent his vaca- tion here, started on his return to Cuba, September 4. He had been there s
