.lust after New Year's trade took a 

 <:onsiUerable drop and eontinued very 

 dull for two weeks. Since then, though 

 the change has been slow, business has 

 now regained its former footing and 

 remains steady. The sujiply of roses is 

 at about the lowest ebb, the old crops 

 being entirely off and the new cut just 

 beginning. The prospects are good for 

 a very fine cut in the near future. Beau- 

 ties are producing some very high grade 

 blooms but the supply is far short of 

 •what it was at holiday time. Carna- 

 tions are in full crop. The ilemand is 

 fair but prices, as a rule, are not so 

 satisfactory. The lily crops for Easter 

 are showing up in excellent form, little 

 or no trace of disease having as yet 

 appeared. The quantities grown will 

 l>e largely in excess of last season. Bul- 

 bous stock of excellent quality has been 

 on the market for some time and com- 

 mands a ready sale at good prices. 



Tlie Van Bochoves have been cutting 

 some very fine Harrisii since before the 

 holidays, their cut being sold out every 

 day. 



The weather has been cold and cloudy 

 and on Sunday wo had a blizzard with 

 the temperature S degrees below zero.

H. Weber & Sons, Oakland, Md., reg- 

 ister New Daybreak, color the true Day- 

 break shade, which is not affected by the 

 heat of summer. The result of a cross 

 between seedlings of Scott extraction on 

 one side and of Daybreak extraction on 

 the other. The vigorous characteristics 

 of these two varieties are' fully conserved 

 in the New Daybreak; the color at no 

 time of the year has a washed-out a])- 

 pearanco. Blooms three inches and o^■er 

 in diameter, stems eighteen to thirty 

 inches during the season and always 

 strong enough to hold the flower erect. 

 A very free bloomer and possessing the 

 ■elements of a most profitable commercial 

 variety. Does not burst and is a splen- 

 did keeper and shipper.
