Business in general seems to be some- what better than it was last summer. All kinds of stock are abundant, but there have been some good, orders dur- ing the last few weeks. The last two days of last week showed a slump in the market, but stock was kept moving fairly well. Carnations are beginning to show the effects of the hot weather and the qual- ity is steadily getting poorer. They are coming in plentifully and are being moved only at rock-bottom prices.

Gladioli, though of good quality, are not moving well on account of the large supply of other stock. Lilies are suffering with the rest of the stock because of the heavy supply.
