The Market. 



(Jontinued mild we.Tther has kept the 

 supply up, .Tiid .ill growers are cutting 

 more flowers than they did last year 

 in January. The rose supply in the 

 medium and short grades moves well at 

 all times, hut the long and special grades 

 have little call and consequently many 

 of tliese are lost. Prices remain un- 

 changed. 



Carnations are now in almndance, $8 

 ])iT hundred lieing the top price, with 

 the exception of Laddie, which moves 

 well at .'jil.'j. Sweet peas are i)lentiful 

 at $2 and $.T jier hundred. Frcesias are 

 iirriving in large quantities and the 

 (pialit.v is excellent. Home-grown valley 

 is now offered at $8 and $10 per hun- 

 dred. Daffodils are ,iust beginning to 

 come in, the first blooms bringing $10. 



Pot plants are moving well at all 

 times; cyclamens, ferns, cinerarias and 

 Primula obconica are the big sellers at 

 ]iresent. Bulbous stock will be ready 

 for the market next week. 



Various Notes.

"Golden opiiortuiiities are within our

 a delighted company assembled in the 

 evening to view ]jict«res taken by Mr. 

 Hill on his recent Euro]iean trip .ind to 

 Join in an informal talk. The eminent 

 rosnrian waxed eloquent as he described 

 with prophetic vision the iiossibilities 

 of our business and the alisurdity of 

 even dreaming of its decay, with the

 was admitted by those present, who 

 were in a position to form an opinion, 

 that, taken as a whole, the business was 

 never in so healthy a condition and is 

 bound to continue on the upward grade. 

 Following the chat, refreshments 

 were served by the Washburn ladies. 

 A vote of thanks to the entertainers 

 was proposed by Major Jones, who, 

 with his gOf)d wife, was among the 

 home party. Tlie visitors included W.

Charleroi, Pa. — One of the best ex 

 amples of a steailily growing business 

 is that of Joseph Haube, who started 

 in business twenty-two years ago with 

 a sash, 3x5 feet, and now conducts a 

 range of greenhouses covering more 

 th;iii an acre of ground. Mr. Haube has 

 just completed the improvements on his 

 new location and has moved from 520 

 to 5.31 Fallowfield avenue. His new lo- 

 cation contains all modern conveniencpa 

 I and is up-to-date in every way.
