Jab Market. 



Last week this city was in the grip 

 of one of the severest spells of cold 

 weather experienced in several years. 

 THe thermometer registered as low as 18 

 degrees below zero and many green- 

 house men were up the greater part of 

 tfifi first two or three nights of the cold 

 spell in order to keep up enough heat 

 in-Hheir houses. No reports have come 

 indicating that any suffered any par- 

 ticular loss from freezing. Business 

 lyas not so active as in other years, 

 presumably because of the severe 

 weather. Snow flurries have been fre- 

 quent. Many shipments of flowers ar- 

 rived late and many were badly frozen, 

 thus fairly crippling the market and 

 causing much disappointment. Stock 

 was otherwise in excellent shape and 

 good prices were obtained. 



Boses were excellent. There has not 

 been much demand for American 

 Beauties of late. Cecile Brunner had 

 a small, but steady, demand. Cattleyas 

 and cypripediums were in good supply 

 and sold fairly well. Carnations were 

 plentiful and of good quality. Violets 

 arrived in fair quantities and sold more 

 freely than in the previous week. 

 Paper White narcissi were of good qual- 

 ity, but were limited in supply. 

 Bouvardia was seen occasionally. Calla 

 lilies were in fair supply and sold read- 

 ily. Holly was disappointing, arriving 

 late, with few berries and in bad condi- 

 tion. Other Christmas greens were good. 

 Poinsettias, cherries, peppers and other 

 Christmas plants were in good demand. 



Vaxious Notes. 



E. R. Fry, of West Main street, made 

 a specialty of Christmas novelty baskets 

 and wreaths. He has had a heavy de- 

 mand for funeral work also. 



H. E. Wilson, of 88 East Main street, 

 has recently opened a candy depart- 

 ment in connection with his store, and 

 has an elaborate case just inside the 

 doorway. He says that he finds the side 

 line quite profitable, for, when a nice 

 box of flowers is sent to a customer, 

 often a box of candy is included. 



J. B. Keller Sons' window was most 

 artistic in its Christmas novelties and
