The Market. 



In spite of the extremely cold weather 

 last week, business was satisfactory. 

 Some little stock was lost by freezing. 

 The market is normal again after the 

 holiday rush. There is still a scarcity 

 of carnations and the price remains at 

 from $12 to $15 per hundred. The de- 

 mand for Paper White narcissi has 

 exceeded the supply. Beauties are 

 bringfing $12 per dozen. The orchid 

 situation has improved greatly and or- 

 chids can be bought at $1.50 each. Sweet 

 peas are arriving slowly. All stock 

 cleaned up well, and there was an ex- 

 traordinary demand for funeral flowers. 

 The plant trade remains good. All avail- 

 able primrose plants were bought up at 

 $1 each. 



Various Notes. 



The Louise Flower Shop had a large 

 decorating job at the Louise Home, of 

 this city. It also had a good decorat- 

 ing job at the Chevy Chase Club. Miss 

 Daugherty has charge of all decorating 

 work at B. F. Keith's theater. She has 

 been kept busy with large parties and 

 weddings since the holidays. 



The florists of Center Market report 

 business good. They all have been busy 

 with an unusually large amount of fu- 

 neral work, 



L. Hoover reports a large quantity 

 of funeral work coming in. 



A number of important weddings in 

 addition to the large amount of decorat- 

 ing work last week kept George C. 

 Shaffer busy. 



Jacob Minder is bringing in some fine 

 table ferns. 



George H. Cooke, of thir city, was con- 

 fined to his home on account of illness 

 for several days last week. However, 

 he is back in his store again attending 

 to business. G. V. S. 



New Cumberland, Pa. — William Bank- 

 ert, who has been growing plants for 

 the last eleven years, is erecting a green- 

 house.
