Syracuse, N. Y. — There were some 

 unusual features in the Christmas 

 trade heie this year; for there has 

 never been so much holly and greens 

 used before; wreaths, tco, were entire- 

 ly sold out and on Christmas morning 

 one could not buy a pound of holly. A 

 large number of wreaths made of box- 

 wood, princess, pine, laurel, etc., In 

 which ruscus and immortelles had 

 been freely used, sold remarkably weU 

 and at good prices. Bas ets filled wiih 

 statice and ruscus were qui;e a feati^re 

 with good sales reported. Ruscus is 

 distined to become very useful for dec- 

 orative purposes at this time of year. 

 The market was overdone with Lor- 

 raine and Cincinnati begonias and a

great many were left over. Poinset- 



tias, azaleas, ericas and cyclamen were 

 by all odds the best sellers and were 

 all sold. Very little bulb stuff was 

 seen. Paper whites and Soliel d'Or as 

 pot plants hung fire. 



With regard to cut flowers the de- 

 mand was not as large as expected, 

 doubtless owing to the sharp advance 

 in price florists were compelled to ask. 

 Violets were in very short supply — 

 thousands more could have been sold 

 had they been procurable. The de- 

 mand for Beauty, Liberty and Killar- 

 ney roses was fairly good. Red car- 

 nations sold well — stock very limited. 



A very remarkable incident regard- 

 ing the mild weather was that farmers 

 were ploughing their fields New Year's 

 day, a thing the oldest inhabitant can- 

 not remember ever having been done 

 before. So some are deluding them- 

 selves with the idea that we shall not 

 have any hard winter weather. The 

 chances are it will come when we least 

 desire it — about Easter time!
