Weather Conditions. 



The new year started in cold and clear 

 \yith six inches of snow and the ther- 

 mometer hovering around io° above 

 zero, therefore making double work in 

 ■wrapping plants and cut flowers for 

 ■delivery. Owing to the cold weather 

 very few plants were sold, but everything 

 in the line of cut flowers sold well. 

 Roses went at from $2 to J3 per dozen, 

 with the exception of some choice 

 Meteors and Kaiserin which brought §■$; 

 Beauties from $6tof;i2per dozen; nar- 

 cis.sus and Romans 75 cents per dozen; 

 A-alley |i; violets 50 cents; carnations 75 

 cents to J I, 



Notes. 



Several large funeral orders came in at 

 the beginning of this week, which will 

 exhaust the surplus stock of white carna- 

 tions and hyacinths. 



I notice that poinsettias, at one time 

 very popular, but of late years somewhat 

 <liscarded, are growing more in favor 

 again for table decorations. Sunderbruch's 

 Sons used 1,200 during the holidays and 

 they intend to grow two houses next 

 year. 



Mr. I'red. Walz, of Cumminsville, who 

 has been confined to his room the past 

 two weeks, is about able to be around 

 again. 



The regular monthly meeting of the 

 Cincinnati Florist Society will be held 

 Jan. 8. Election of officers will take place 

 and a full attendance is expected.

RIVERTON, N. J. 



Mr. Walter Mott celebrated his tenth 

 anniversary of joining the "Benedicts" 

 on the 29th of December, and many of 

 his friends were present. Mr. J. Austin 

 Shaw sent an original poem congratulat- 

 ing him and Mrs. Mott, which brought 

 tears of joy and sadness to the eyes of the 

 visitors. Being a tin wedding he sent it 

 in a watering can, because it could 

 "spout" for itself, he said. Walter re-
