PHILADELPHIA. 



The store men report business in 

 general the past week as being excep- 

 tionally dull, which was due no doubt 

 to the bad weather which has prevail- 

 ed the past week. 



Prices were very low. Carnations 

 sold at 75 cents per 100, except some 

 of the finer varieties which sold for 

 fl.50. 



Double violets sold at 50 to 75 cents 

 per 100 and singles at 25 cents per 100. 



American Beauties brought from $2 

 to $4 per dozen. Brides and Brides- 

 maids sold as cheap as $4 per 100. 

 There was some few sold at $8, but it 

 was necessary that they should be ex- 

 tra fine. 



Meteors brought from $4 to $8. No 

 change in Romans, valley or tulips. 

 Freesias sold at $2 and $3, Narcissus 

 at $.3 and ?4. Hardy fern leaves are 

 very scarce and sell very readily at $2 

 per 1000. 



Mr. P. L. Oarbone, Boston, was 

 among the visitors in town the past 

 week. R 



AMONG those present at Philadel- 

 phia and whom we failed to include in 

 our list was Mr. F. Burki, of Bellevue, 

 Pa.
