PHILADELPHIA. 



The florists of this city report a per- 

 ceptible change for the better ia busi- 

 ness the past weeli and a bu^y Febru- 

 ary is predicted. The majority teel 

 they are in a position to appreciate an 

 improvement as business iias been ex- 

 ceptionally dull since the holidays. 



Entertainments and balls ha\e been 

 quite numerous the past week, using 

 up considerable material in the way 

 of cut flowers and decorative stuff, and 

 most of the florists have had no reason 

 to complain. 



Prices range about as follows: Beau- 

 ties, $1 to $6 per dozen; Brides and 

 Maids, $4 to $12 per 100; Kaiserins, 

 Meteors and Golden Gates, $4 to $jO; 

 Perles. $3 to $6; Gontiers, $3 to .$5; 

 Morgans, ,|3 to .$8. Carnations, ordina- 

 ries, ?1 to $1.50; fancies, $2 to ijS; 

 hyacinths, valley and narcissus, $3 to 

 ?4; cattleyas, $.50; cypripediums, $15: 

 tulips, $3 to $4: violets, single 25 to 50 

 cents, double 50 cents to $1; mignon- 

 ette, $3 to $4; callas. $S to $12; aspara- 

 gus. $50: adiantum. $1; smily.K. J15. 



The horses of Clias. Fox, Jr., and 

 Julius Wolf. Sr.. ran away last week, 

 smashing the wagons and injuring Mr. 

 Wolff's horse so badly that it had to 

 be killed. 



The so-called cut flower hustlers 

 gave a "smoker" the past week that 

 was quite an event. All present report 

 a jolly time. 



We regret to have to report the 

 death of Thomas James, an employe of 

 Pennock Bros., of pulmonary trouble. 

 He entered the employ of the firm 

 when a mere boy in 1876 and bad been 

 with them steadily until his death. Ha 

 was a faithful employe and '."ab much 

 respected by all who knew him. R. 



OAKDALE. N. Y.— Seymour Burr, 

 whose greenhouse was recently de- 

 stroyed by fire, estimates his loss at 

 $1,000, with no insurance. He contem- 

 plates rebuilding. 



NORTHAMPTON. MASS.— A joint 

 meeting of the horticultural societies 

 of Springfield, Holyoke, and North- 

 ampton was held here Jan. 23, with 100 

 people in attendance. Addresses were 

 made by E. P. Cop:'land, Prof. Ganong, 

 W, T. Hutchins, G. H. Sinclair, and 

 A. Miellez. 



THE Chicago Carnation Co., Joliet, 

 HI., are sending out some fine blooms 

 and rooted cuttings of carnations. 

 This firm is probably the only one in 

 the country growing carnations ex- 

 clusively, the entire place being de- 

 voted to the Divine flower. Their new 

 trade list has just been issued.
