" ADIANTUM 

 FARLEYENSE 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. 



Business during the first days of the 

 new year has been decidedly active, al- 

 though trade conditions are not entirely 

 satisfactory, due to the continued short- 

 age in cut flowers, although the supply 

 is better than it had been for some weeks 

 preceding the holidays. Prices have 

 dropped but little from the holiday 

 level. 



Flowers for social affairs have been 

 in fine demand, especially for table dec- 

 orations and corsages. Many of the 

 hotels have opened their dancing halls 

 and cabarets since the first of the year. 

 Wedding decorations also have become 

 more numerous and lavish. 



Eeports as to the supply, however, 

 are not so optimistic. Arrivals of roses do 

 not begin to satisfy the call, and many 

 local growers are cutting only fifty per 

 cent of their usual supply for this sea- 

 son. Carnations are more plentiful, al- 

 though the price has dropped from $12 

 to $6 per hundred. Some exceptionally 

 fine cattleyas are being offered. 



Various Notes. 



Miss C. B. Flick, of the Patten Flow- 

 er Shop, Toledo, O., spent last week 

 here visiting relatives, on her way to 

 Los Angeles, Cal., where she will spend 

 the remainder of the winter, returning 

 to Toledo in time for Easter. 



The Frcese Floral Co. has been having 

 a fine sale of blooming plants for the 

 hospitals. Henry Freese is confined to 

 his bed, suffering from a nervous break- 

 down. 



Miss Catherine Vesey, who has been 

 at Camp Taylor, Louisville, Ky., nursing 

 soldiers suffering from influenza, has re- 

 turned to her home. Miss Vesey also 

 assisted her sister. Miss Margaret Vesey, 

 with her duties at the Hostess house at 

 the camp. 



Mr. and Mrs. Richard Blossom, of the 

 Flick Floral Co., announce the arrival 

 of a son, born December 14. 



Miss Marguerite Flick is in Detroit, 

 Mich., spending several weeks with 

 friends on a trip combining business 

 and pleasure. E. F. B.
