ADMNTUM 

 FARLETENSE GLORIOSUM 



For fine decorative work we offer a splendid 

 lot of 3-inch pot plants of this variety, which, 

 on account of its hardiness (it outlasts the old 

 variety ten to one), makes it an available sub- 

 ject where Farleyense cannot be used at all.

The Market. 



New Year's business was better than 

 last year, owing to the large number of 

 social events and watch parties, for 

 which many flowers were used. A large 

 number of corsage bouquets were worn 

 by the ladies. Funeral work is not so 

 heavy as it was, owing to a decrease in 

 the number of deaths from influenza. 



The recent Soldiers' and Sailors' ball 

 at the Colosseum was well attended and 

 a large number of corsage bouquets 

 were made for this event. 



The weather is cold, with little snow 

 and not much sunshine. The tempera- 

 ture fell to 5 degrees above zero Janu- 

 ary 3. Last month was the warmest 

 December for more than twenty years. 

 The rainfall was 5.83 inches. 



Various Notes. 



The William Blackman Floral Co. re- 

 ports a large business for the holidays. 

 This firm enjoyed a fine demand for cor- 

 sage bouquets for New Year's and the 

 Soldiers' and Sailors* ball. 



George Blackman gave his annual ban- 

 quet at the store to his employees, his 

 family and relatives January 3, it being 

 his fifty-sixth birthday. This is the 

 fifteenth year that he has observed his 

 birthday in this manner. 



C. L. Niednagel is off crop on roses, as 

 he had a full crop for Christmas. He is 

 cutting some good sweet peas. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons are having a 

 great deal of funeral work. They are 

 cutting quantities of carnations. 



Karl Zeidler reports a good business 

 in funeral work. He is preparing for a 

 heavy spring business. 



Mrs. J. C. Elspermann is using all the 

 flowers she can get, as business is still 

 heavy. 



Eoyston & Fenton did four times the 

 business in December that they did that 

 month last year, while the first four days 

 ol January nearly equaled the volume 

 of business for January, 1918. They al- 

 ready have received orders for coleus 

 from florists who did not order till 

 March and April last year.
