The Market. 



Potted spring bulbous stock is now 

 arriving on the local market in large 

 quantities. Prices on all kinds of flow- 

 ers have dropped to a much lower point 

 than they have been for some time. 

 Sweet peas may be purchased now for 

 35 cents per bunch and hyacinths with 

 four or five blooms to the pot are sell- 

 ing at $1 to $2 per pot, a figure much 

 lower than last year. 



Tulips, jonquils, etc., sell at a rela- 

 tively low price. Carnations are more 

 plentiful than they have been. Funeral 

 work continues to form the bulk of the 

 business. 



Various Notes. 



With the advent of warmer weather, 

 pushcart flower venders have made their 

 appearance on the streets of Newark. 



The Washington Florists, 577 Broad 

 street, report business good at the pres- 

 ent time. Funeral work is making up 

 most of the trade. 



Fred D. Wolfinger, Broad street, re- 

 ports business exceptionally good now.

BOSTON. 



The Market. 



There are too many cut flowers arriv- 

 ing for the rather weak demand and 

 prices continue on the down grade. The 

 weather has been much milder and con- 

 siderable snow has disappeared. More 

 remains, however, than we get in some 

 ordinary winters altogether. Saturdays 

 are usually busy days with retailers, but 

 March 6 gave us the worst blizzard of 

 the winter and March 13 torrential rain, 

 which flooded streets, sidewalks and 

 cellars and made shopping the reverse 

 of enjoyable. As a result many flowers 

 have been carried over at the markets 

 and values are quite low. 



Roses are in a particularly weak 

 position and move slowly at prices about 

 the same as a week ago. American
