NEW YORK MARKET. 



After a generally satisfactory holi- 

 day trade which was maintained with 

 greater steadiness after it got under 

 way than in some past years the usual 

 reaction has set in and since New 

 Year's day trade has been rapidly 

 weakening. The result is a steady 

 decline in values from day to day 

 which is hastened by the increasing 

 supplies of carnations and roses, due 

 in part to the very warm weather 

 of the past few days. Predictions are 

 for a very cold wave to follow and 

 doubtless by the time these notes 

 get into print there will be "some- 

 thing doing" in the wintry line, which 

 may stop for a while at least the 

 downward tendency of the market. 

 We hope to see good paying values 

 prevail for the next few weeks. It 

 will be better for all Interests. 



In ordering goods please add "I saw 

 it in HORTICULTURE." 



NEWS NOTES. 

 Grand Rapids, Mich. — At a meeting 

 of the directors of the Grand Rapids 

 Greenhouse Co., Charles W. Garfield 

 was elected a director and later presi- 

 dent of the company in place of F. M. 

 Strong,' deceased. 



Winchendon, Mass. — The boiler 



house connected with the greenhouses 

 of W. H. Rhuland was destroyed by 

 fire on Jan. 1, but fortunately the 

 plants were not injured. The loss is 

 estimated at $4500. 



An ol)servant and always-alert grow- 

 er asserts that much of the "diseased" 

 Easter lily plants which some forcers 

 complain of are_the direct result or in- 

 judicious treatment while growing. 

 He gives as an infallible rule in suc- 

 cessful lily forcing: "Get a tempera- 

 ture and stick right to it; fluctuations 

 are fatal." 



The compromise rate of 20 cents an- 



nounced by the American Express 

 Company as a minimum charge on 

 small jiarcels locally, which was ac- 

 cepted by the Boston merchants, is not 

 satisfactory to the New Hampshire 

 people, who assert that the old rate 

 of 15 cents was suflSciently profitable 

 and should be restored.
