The Market. 



Since m_v last notes the market has 

 weakened and prices took the downward 

 course. Stock is now plentiful, a large 

 surplus in all flowers existing. The de- 

 mand for flowers was practically shut off 

 by the very cold weather which prevailed 

 most of last week. The temperature fell 

 as low as L'O degrees below zero. Many 

 of the florists who received shipments 

 from distant points had heavy losses by 

 freezing. Quantities of stock were re- 

 ceived frozen into solid mass, which never 

 recovered. 



Carnations are abundant and selling 

 slowly; in lots of 1,000 they are offered 

 as low as $15 and $20. Eoses are farii"- 

 better, the supply being just about equal 

 to the demand, but the call for Beauties 

 is limited. An over-production in Paper 

 White narcissi and Roman hyacinths is 

 quite noticeable, and quantities remain 

 unsold on the wholesalers ' hands. Tulips, 

 Proserpine, Yellow Prince and La Beine, 

 are being received in quantities but sell 

 slowly. 



Various Notes. 



Wm. Lauch is cutting on a fine crop 

 of carnations. 



The Pittsburg Cut Flower Co. is receiv- 

 ing yellow Trumpet daffodils of good 

 quality. 



T. M. Ulam had a busy week in funeial 

 work. 



Breitenstein & Flemm made a lavish 

 window display of violets and baby prim- 

 roses last week. 



Mrs. E. A. Williams had several prettv 

 decorations the past week. 



Randolph & McClements furnishe'S the 

 decorations at the Duquesne Club, last 

 Saturday, for the annual dinner of the 

 heads of departments of the Carnegie 

 Steel Co. 



E. C. Ludwig is issuing an artistic and 

 costly floral album. The album contains 

 new and original designs of his own 

 handiwork. 



After the installation of the officers of 

 the Florists' Club at the next meetinf. 

 Tuesday, February 2, a "smoker" will 

 be held. The committee is C. C. Eeine- 

 man and Gustav Ludwig, who are making 

 arrangements for a good time. Mr. Reine- 

 man wants all members of the club to at- 

 tend and come prepared to smoke a pipe, 

 sing a song, dance a jig, or tell a story. 

 Boys, refreshments will be served, so 

 don 't eat your suppers before. 



C. T. Siebert, the inventor of the zinc 

 glazing point, reports a heavy demand for 

 this article. ' Hoo-Hoo.
