Office the storage space required for coal and the greater freedom from soot and dust, it still seems that one will not be war- ranted in using coal gas where prices anything like those quoted prevail. The use of natural gas at one-half the price mentioned for coal gas is gener- ally satisfactory. LOWELL, MASS. The Market. There was little sunshine last week and zero weather prevailed during the nights. Cut flowers of all kinds con- tinued scarce. Carnations of good quality in the ordinary varieties were quoted at $12 per hundred. Golden Spur brought $20 per hundred.

The automobile show, which was held in this city all last week, created a large demand, as such shows usually do, by bringing more visitors to the city and by calling for the renting or sale of palms and other plants, besides cut flowers. Harvey B. Green has a fine lot of Easter lilies coming along, also a large quantity of geraniums and other sea- sonable stock for both retail and whole- sale trade. J. L. Kenny is getting fine sweet peas and doing a large business in funeral work. E. E. R. INDIANAPOLIS, IND. The Market. Market conditions are deplorable. Everywhere there is a cry for more stock, which cannot be found anywhere. The demand increases daily, as there is a scourge of sickness which causes a constant demand. Roses are scarce and high. Carna- tions average $10 and $12 per hundred and fine varieties bring up to $15. Sweet peas come in slowly. Calla lilies are the only lilies available and these are in limited supply. The demand for them is heavy and they sell quickly. Frecsias are putting in an appearance and bring $ to $3 per hundred. Nar- cissi are in scant supply and bring $7 and $8 per hundred. A few calendulas are seen and occasionally a few violets and orchids are shown in display win
