WASHINGTON. 



The question of licenses for florists 

 having stands in the several city markets 

 having been raised, A. Gude & Bro. ap- 

 plied for a ruling from the corporation 

 counsel, who advises as follows: 



' ' A person who sells flowers of his 

 own raising in or around the several 

 markets is a producer and should there- 

 fore not be required to procure a license 

 BO to do; and that a florist doing busi- 

 ness in one of the markets should be 

 required to procure a florists' license if 

 he does not himself grow or raise the 

 flowers which he sells, without regard to 

 whether he already holds a florist's li- 

 cense authorizing him to deal in flowers 

 at a designated place outside of the 

 market, and that the tax of $5 provided 

 for dealers of every description in the 

 several markets does not apply to flor- 

 ists." 



The condition of the market is verv 

 good, considering such a short while 

 after Easter. Funeral work is deserving 

 of special mention and all the stores 

 have a good share of this kind of busi- 

 ness. Carnations are in good demand, 

 good stock " bringing from 75 cents to 

 $1.50 per dozen. Roses are also moving 

 along at a good gait. Kaiserins, Brides- 

 maids, Caruots and Brides range about 

 $1.50 to $3; Beauties $3 to $8. These 

 are retail prices. Bulbous stock is fast 

 disappearing, but good stock finds ready 

 sale. 



The florists of this city at last are 

 to have a club. W. F. Gude sent out 

 notices to all local florists for a meeting 

 to be held May 4. Tlie object of this 

 meeting is to get the boys together, elect 

 officers, determine upon a meeting place 

 and start the ball rolling, after which 

 the going will be easy and prosperous 

 meetings will be assured. 



Weather conditions prevailing do not 

 furnish many indication^ of the approach 

 of spring. With the exception of a few 

 days, rough weather has prevailed ever 

 since April 1 and at this writing does 

 not show any sign of letting up, which, 

 of course, makes it pretty hard on bed- 

 ding plant growers. Usually quite a 

 little stock is sold out at this time. 



John D. Davidson has sailed for Porto 

 Eico to engage in the shipping trade. 



Captain Ernest is working hard with 

 the bowling team to meet the Baltimore 

 club on May 6, and a good time is as- 

 sured. H. B. L. 



Bexlevuxe, III. — Arthur Cowee will 

 plant a very large quantity of gladioli 

 on the farm" of Louis F. Dintleman, from 

 which he will draw for his World's Fair 

 display.
