BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



The best description that can be given 

 of the market of last week is that ' ' the 

 bottom dropped out." There was never 

 a better demonstration of supply and 

 demand regulating prices than in the 

 Baltimore market last week. While 

 the demand has been fairly good, there 

 has been so much stock on hand that, 

 after the day's business, to look over 

 the stock instead of the books, one 

 would suppose no business had been 

 done. While June weddings have been 

 using their full share of stock, com- 

 mencements, which usually take much 

 stock at this season, have, for some 

 reason, fallen short of previous years. 

 But it will not be long before the sup- 

 ply will have fallen off and business 

 will again be down to normal. 



No florist has any room to complain 

 of this spring's business; bedding^ 

 plants, for instance, reached prices this 

 spring that were never heard of before, 

 and while there is no doubt that these 

 prices will fall a little in the future, they 

 will never go back to their once low 

 level. The writer recently saw verbenas 

 sold at 25 cents each, while he himself 

 has sold thousands of them for 50 cents 

 per dozen in previous years. A cor- 

 responding advance seems to be the case 

 with all lines of bedding stock. 



There is one thing which has been 

 shown by the market in bedding stock 

 this spring, that the public is going to 

 have flowers for the places about their 

 homes no matter what the price may be. 



Club Meeting. 



The regular meeting of the Florists' 

 Club was held in the Eoyal Arcanum 

 hall, its new home, June 9. Never was 

 there a more enthusiastic meeting. W. 

 F. Ekas was on hand with his two hob- 

 bies, one, representation on the board 

 of directors of the S. A. F., and the 

 other, publicity. Mr. Ekas thinks it is 

 the duty of the local club to become a 

 part of these two movements; he is 

 trying to arrange for a visit from John 

 Young and Major O'Keefe at our next 

 meeting.
