at tlic Newport hospital. She was a 

 (laufjliter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander 

 Jennings, formerly of this city but now 

 of Westbury, Long Island, where Mr. 

 Jennings is gardener for Mrs. E. D. 

 Morgan, at Wheatley. W. H. M. 



GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



The Market. 



The exceedingly mild weather is still 

 with us and business has continued fairly 

 brisk. I'lenty of good stock is on the 

 market, with the exception of roses, 

 which are good, but not plentiful. Car- 

 nations are in their prime. Quantities 

 can lie had. 'I'his also is true of violets. 



Sweet jieas are making a good showing, 

 and sell readily. Calendulas seem to be 

 off crop for a week or so. Some good 

 tulips and daffodils are making their ap- 

 ])earance, as is freesia, which is the fore- 

 runner of a large crop. 



The last nnims of the sea.son were cut 

 last week. Cyclamens, primroses and 

 cinerarias are plentiful. Asparagus is 

 scarce and tliere is practically no smilax. 



Various Notes. 



The Michigan Florists' Association 

 held its regular meeting at the office of 

 the Wealthy Avenue Floral Co., Jan- 

 uary 30. Twenty-two members were 

 j)resent and an interesting discussion 

 was held regarding the "gluts." That 

 they should be eliminated, so as not to 

 fall into the hands of the department 

 stores, was advocated by the majority. 

 A paper by F. Hockstra, on grow- 

 ing cyclamens, was enjoyed. The meet- 

 ing was one of the best held thi.s season. 



S. Kunst has a fine crop of freesia, 

 and some nice cinerarias. 



L. Bruin Slot has some fine violets, 

 and is jiicking several thousand every 

 day. A. F. C. 



FORT WAYNE, IND. 



The Market. 



Trices on stock reiuain firm, although 

 there has been a droj) in some lines since 

 the middle of .lanuary, due to the in- 

 crease in production. Cjirnations are 

 <|Uoted at .$(>, $8 and .$10 per hundred. 

 Koses are soiling at $8 to $15 per hun-
