enough roses to meet the demand. 

 Beauties are scarce and command good 

 prices. In white and pink roses the 

 medium grades are more sought after 

 than the shorts or fancies. Carnations 

 are still on the increase, but it does not 

 seem to affect the price, as they are 

 bringing $3 to $5 per hundred. Sweet 

 peas, while long in quantity and short 

 as to quality, are selling well. Violets 

 are about the same as last reported. 

 Snapdragons, mignonette. Paper Whites, 

 valley and hyacinths are in somewhat 

 small supply. There are sufficient tulips 

 in all colors and plenty of greens of all 



kinds with the exception of plumosus 

 sprays. Some extra fine Dutch hya- 

 cinths are to be seen in the market and 

 find ready sale. 



Varioiis Notes. 



The Stewart Seed Co., doing busi- 

 ness on North Sixteenth street, i^ re- 

 modeling and redecorating both the in- 

 terior and front of the building and 

 changing the style of the show windows, 

 which makes quite an improvement over 

 the old place. The company has been 

 doing an excellent business in cut flow- 

 ers and pot plants, taking into consid- 



eration the general disorder of things 

 while making repairs. The springlike 

 weather the last two weeks gave the 

 store several days of rushing business 

 in garden tools and seeds, • Mr. Stewart 

 anticipates that the coming year's vol- 

 ume of business will exceed any ever 

 experienced. 



Bert Howse, the popular and ever 

 genial pot plant grower for Chas. Faulk- 

 ner, was married last week, his bride 

 being Miss Jean Stevenson. Their 

 many friends in the trade wish them 

 all the joys of wedlock.
