The Market- 



The market was rather one sided dur- 

 ing tlie past week. Everything in 

 roses was cleaned up daily, but it was 

 hard v\ork trying to get January piices 

 on earnations, es[)ecially colored sorts. 

 Locally trade wa,s quiet, but shipping 

 busine-ss consumed most of the stock. 

 The call for violets is extremely light, 

 a peculiar condition with such favorable 

 weather for the iu:e of them and no 

 large quantities in the market. There 

 are many hard luck stories among the 

 violet growers around here as very few 

 had any success with them this season, 

 some of them losing their entire stock. 

 Romans and Paper Whites are stickers; 

 even plenty of funeral work don't seem 

 to budge them much. The prices real- 

 ized hardly w.urant a grower to invest 

 in the bulbs, especially if reports be 

 true of another advance in Konians next 

 season. 



Notes. 



C. C. Polhvorlh, W. A. Kennedy and 

 Nic Zweifel exix-ct to attend the (tarna- 

 tion So<'iety meeting at Indianapolis. 



The Baumgarten Floral Co. have en- 

 tirely remodeled the interior of their 

 store, making it one of the most attrac- 

 tive Hower stores in the city. 



The announcement of the death of 

 Walter lleU'ron came as a sudden shock 

 to his friends in the trade here and re- 

 grets are expressed on all sides at his 

 sudden demise right in the prime of life. 



The Bloomers have stopped training 

 and are now ready for the Chicago bowl- 

 ers and their mascots and rooters when 

 they arrive next Saturday. The mayor 

 was also notified so as to prevent any 

 oflicial attempts to stoj) the game. The 

 Ex])osition Iniilding, where it is expected 

 most of the lM)\vliug will be done, ha.s 

 been enlarged for the cci-asion. Chicago 

 and ililwaukoe bands will furnish the 

 music. L\c()G. 



ERIE, PA. 



Mr. \'ern L. SchluraH' has sold a half 

 interest in his greenhouses (foinierly 

 owned by Titus Berst) to Mr. G. Scott 

 Snyder, and the firm will be known as 

 G. Scott Snyder & Co., with green- 

 houses at corner Twentieth and Poplar 

 streets. Mr. V. L. Schhiraff is the son 

 of Mr. G. R. SchlurafT, of the SchlurafT 

 Floral Co.. and Mr. Snyder has been in 

 the employ of the Schiuraft' Floral Co. 

 for several years. 



Both are young and energetic and 

 will no doubt make their business a suc- 

 cess. They have nearly 14,000 square 

 feet of glass and will the coming summer 

 rebuild and enlarge one house. 



We are advised that Mr. Henry W. 

 Gibbons has sold all his interest iii the 

 Henry W. Gibbons Co. and has no fur- 

 ther connection therewith. He will con- 

 tinue in business personally at the old 

 address, 130 Liberty street, New York.
