and sold well. Carnations were in large 

 supply, but the scarcity of^ other flow- 

 ers made the run on these heavy and 

 consequently they were soon off the 

 wholesale market. 



Various Notes. 



John Dennis, a veteran newspaper 

 editor, a man whose writings did much 

 for Eochester in the way of advertising 

 the parks and the flower shows given 

 in this city, and who for many years 

 had been a member of the Eochester 

 Florists' Association, died at his home 

 in this city last week at an advanced 

 age, after several weeks' illness. 



Valentine Gatz, of Albion, N. Y., was 

 in the city calling on the trade Satur- 

 day, January 3. 



New Year's morning was a busy time 

 for the uptown florists, for a large num- 

 ber of baskets, potted plants and huge 

 vases of flowers were used for the va- 

 rious city officials at the courthouse as 

 they resumed office for the ensuing year. 



The Utica-Eochester Flower Store, on 

 North street, has recently gone out of 

 business, the whole stock and fixtures 

 having been disposed of. 



Miss Euth Ingram, bookkeeper for 

 Hart & Vick, Inc., spent the New Year's 

 holidays in New York city, returning 

 Sunday, January 4. 



The large Victory ball held at the 

 New York state armory New Year's 

 eve created a large demand for cor- 

 sages. 



Miss Jane Morris, of H. E. Wilson's 

 office, spent a few days in Dundee, N. Y., 

 last week, visiting friends. H. J. H.

Christinas Business. 



The Christmas season found the cut 

 flower market with a heavy demand and 

 small supply. Prices were high and 

 the quality was excellent. Plants were 

 abundant and of good quality, except 

 cyclamens, which were soft and needed 

 much attention and time to make them 

 salable. 



Shipping business was heavy and 

 would have been better for the grower 

 and wholesaler had they been able to 

 procure stock enough to fill orders. 



The weather was ideal for the holiday 

 rush, the temperature being just below 

 freezing.

Violets were scarce and sold at $4 per 

 hundred. Koses were $12.50 to $60.00 

 per hundred. Carnations sold at $10 

 to $15 per hundred, with Laddie bring- 

 ing $25. These prices were for good 

 stock, cut properly and in good shape. 



There was no relief in the supply 

 after Christmas and prices held firm 

 until after New Year's day. 



There was a light call for corsage 

 work here at Christmas. Had it been 

 heavy, the demand could not have been 

 met. A. H. M.
