The first quiet week in a long time 

 was experienced by local florists imme- 

 diately after New Year's, but the lull 

 came rather as a relief, as the rush of 

 the last month was such that a little 

 rest was welcomed. 



Carnations were just as plentiful last 

 week as they were in the previous week,

 and it was stated that in all probability 

 the price of roses would advance within 

 the next week or so. What stock of cut 

 flowers there was on hand was of good 

 quality. Some splendid poinsettias ar- 

 rived from the south, the foliage being 

 particularly fine and the bracts them-

 flowers made their appearance in larger 

 quantities. A few outdoor daffodils are

 large supply of freesias are on the way. 

 In addition to these varieties of spring 

 blooms,, there were Paper White nar- 

 cissi, snowdrops, Boman hyacinths, etc. 

 All were in good demand at the whole- 

 sale market and retailers state that the 

 stock sold well at the present high scale 

 of prices. Retail establishments are 

 getting $1.50 and $2 per dozen for daf- 

 fodils and the few American Beauty 

 roses which can be obtained now are 

 selling at $10 and $12 retail. The rush 

 for orchids at New Year's cleaned out 

 the stock completely and many orders 

 had to go unfilled. Last week, how-
