(a) The Committee highly recommends this variety as an early sort. <b) The Committee would recommend this to florists for planting in limitedi 

 quantities, on account of its earliness. although the flowers before us for judging were not linished and in our opinion would take four to five days to 

 fully develop. It is superior to either Mme. F. Bergmann or Fitzwygram. but we cannot score it up to .K.S points, even taking its earliness into considera- 

 tion. Scoring it strictly on its merits. 70 is all it will stand, (c) Judged as an extra early variety, idi Importation, (el Golden Wedding -t Goldmine. 

 (f) Nagoya X Mrs. Jones, (gi Type of Merry Christmas, ch) Sport from Glory of Paeilie. lii This is supposed to be a sport from Western King. Iji This- 

 variety was raised by the late Henry A. Gane. (k) The New Y'ork Committee awarded the variety "The Josephine" the necessary number of points, 

 namely. x~. entitling it to a certificate, but later, after comparing it with the Robert Halliday. declared it w as too much like that older variety to warrant 

 a certificate, consequently the Committee recommended the withholding of the certificate for the present.

Weil and & Risch have made ready for

Kennicott Bros. Co. say the New

Trade Conditions for Dec. 23-28. 



Good. Xever liettcr and probably 

 never equaled. Good prices ruled on 

 everything for Christmas with the e.x- 

 ception that violet growers brought in 

 too many of their goods on the ■24th, 

 causing a drop before night. Few were 

 left to bring in upon Christmas morning, 

 which is where the mistake came in. 

 Kight dollars per dozen was realized 

 at wholesale on a few pink and white 

 roses and $20 per dozen on a few 

 American Beauties. But I think all 

 demands were supplied in the cut flower 

 and plant trade. 



The holly business got in a bad way 

 a M'eck before Christmas on account of 

 southern shippers not being able to get 

 eases in which to pack their goods. 

 Variotis Items. 



Xone of the suburban buyers have ever 



stood higher in the estimation of the 

 Boston wholesalers than the Quinns, of 

 Biookline. Something over a year aga 

 James F. branched away from a partner- 

 ship n-ith his father and brothers, built 

 new in what has proven a particularly 

 good part of the town, and during the 

 next three hundred and sixty-five days 

 located over .$10,000 worth of retail 

 trade. So I took along a collection of in- 

 terrogation points of different sizes and 

 rode out to see him a day or two since 

 to see if I could find out "by what 

 mighty magic," as Othello says, he does 

 such things. 



Well, I found out he has a finely ar- 

 ranged place to do business to begin 

 with; that he evidently attends to it, 

 and when you couple all this to good 

 natural courtesy the three of a kind is 

 hard to beat. He put up a nice green- 

 house, 24x90 feet, which he keeps well 

 stocked with first-class plants, and a fin&
