SAN FRANCISCO. 



The Market. 

 The weather still continues cold. We 



see notliing of the sun until the after- 

 noons, and plenty of wind from the 

 ocean. Business is about the same ;is 

 for the last few weeks, considerable 

 funeral work, and now that the schools 

 are commencing their sessions again, 

 many families are coining back to town. 

 The prices of roses and carnations re- 

 main the same, but there is some ad- 

 vancement in the quality. Asters are be- 

 ginning to be a factor in business and. 

 although they are not as plentiful as 

 they will be in a week or two, they 

 bid fair to be of good quality. They 

 are raised mainly by Chinese and long- 

 stemmed flowers bring from $1 to $- 

 per hundred. E. Sehwerin is cutting
