CO ST. Lonia. Mention the American Florist when writing. Pittsburgh. HIGH PRICES MAY LIMIT SALES. Hig-h prices prevail and will continue until after Christmas at least. Stock of all kinds is very scarce, especially carnations, which have been shy for some time. There has been a good sup- ply of American Beauties which hold up well in price due to the greneral scarcity in other lines. Specials sold at 7o cents throughout the week. Car- nations are quoted at .$10 and .$12 per 100. Roses range from $8 to .$ but the quality is veiy good, especially in Ophelia and the Killarneys. Some very good Russell are being received and sell well. Lilies and callas, both scarce, command ,$.3 per dozen. Sweet peas are now arriving in more generous quantities and have a good call, the best price being $ per 100. Lily of the valley moves well but only a small amount is available. Calendulas and pansies are both good stocks. Orchids are scarce. The supply houses are moving large volumes of Christmas goods and greens of all kinds. Prices in general for Christmas will be high, which may have a bad effect on the business of the future and customers will not buy at the extremely high prices asked. Holly and Christmas trees are now being received at the produce yards and are expensive com- pared with former years. The quality of the holly is good and it brings $0 to $7 per case. NOTES.
