Trade was somewhat better the past 

 week, due to a great many weddings 

 taking place, and also to the unveiling 

 of the Grant monument. There was 

 also a number of dinners and recep- 

 tions, in which a great many cut flow- 

 ers were used.. However, the market 

 is glutted and prices are way down. 

 Beauties can be had at from $1..50 to 

 $3 per dozen. Brides and Bridesmaids, 

 $2 to $4 per 100; carnations, from l'> 

 cents to $1, some of the fancy varieties 

 bringing $2. Sweet peas can be bought 

 from $1 to $1.50 per 100.

Tuberose bulbs are not only below 

 the average in size, but seem to be a 

 very scarce article. This is attributed 

 to the February freeze.

 out of the retail cut flower business 

 June 1, but will continue to carry on 

 the decorating trade, which will be 

 conducted at their greenhouse on 6th
