N'o great change has taken place dur- ing the last few weelis, nor is there any likelihood of a change for a few weeks more. The most noticeable scarcity is in carnations, few of which are really worth a place in the market. Ijut their place is being well taken by asters, of which a large amount are being handled. The (lowers are not very large, but the stock in most cases is clean. Not much can be said of roses; however, the gen- eral run of them seems better than last summer. Killarney still holds good as a summer rose, and some good Richmond are to be had. but the latter do not hold well and arc unsatisfactory. Kaiseriu is not tip to the usual proportions. Amer- ican Beauty is more plentiful than for some time, but the demand is not great. There is an increasing demand for mer flowers of all sorts and it is re- grettable to note that some florists have so far failed to realize the fact. The present stock comprises hydrangeas, glad- ioli (which have been very useful and much called for), Japanese lilies, snap- dragons and many other varieties. At present outdoor stock is badly in need of rain and the lawns show the need of it plainly. Over across the line dealers seem to be doing a fair share of business. Funeral work lias been unusually plenti- ful witli them. NOTES. Some are planning to take in the con- vention, but. sad to say, the number of convention entluisiasts is not large—not nearly so large as it should be. The most of our brother florists will tell you that
