WASHTNOTON, D. O. 



The Market. 



With the exception of some funeral 

 work here andjthere, business was slow 

 last week and fell far below the mark 

 set last year. Some of the finest stock 

 available was on the market and went 

 begging for buyers. This included 

 mums, Easter lilies, roses and many 

 other varieties. The orchid situation 

 tightened up considerably during the 

 last few days and this was about the 

 chief demand of the week. Warm and 

 sultry weather prevailed during the 

 entire week. 



Varioiu Notes. 



The Leo Niessen Co. has added a new 

 ear to its delivery service. 



A meeting of the executive commit- 

 tee of the chrysanthemum show was 

 held October 25 at the store of the Leo 

 Niessen Co. 



The United States Department of 

 Agriculture is holding its nineteenth 

 annual mum show this week. 



Many of the local florists' wives and 

 children attended a birthday party 

 which was given in honor of the baby 

 of Mr. and Mrs. O. A. C. Oehmler. 

 Baby Oehmler is 1 year old. G. V. S.

The Market. 



The warm, open weather and the ab- 

 sence of frosts have held back the fall 

 business, since outdoor plants are still 

 in bloom. Last week business was just 

 beginning to show more life. Chrysan- 

 themums are fine in quality and are 

 coming into the market in quantities 

 sufficient to meet the demand. Seeds- 

 men are having their usual fall season 

 of prosperity and many bulbs and seeds 

 are sold for fall planting. Nurserymen, 

 also, are delivering and planting trees 

 and shrubs.
