Till' suj)])ly of cattley.'is is not gener- 

 ous, and arrivals meet a fair d(>mand. 

 Tlie price range is $1 to $2 per flower, 

 with culls at no to 7r> cents. Sjiray 

 nrchids an; not in large su]i]ily. Cyjjrijic- 

 diunis are more ])lentifnl, but the de- 

 )nand for fhem is not active, and nijiny 

 sales are made at ]»rices below quid.-i- 

 tions to move stock. Gardenias .'ire 

 plentiful at $1 to $G jier dozen.

 and arc still held at $20 to $23 ]ier liuii- 

 dred flowers for stock on the green side. 

 Lily of the valley is in fjiir snjiply and 

 moves slowly at $5 to .$12 per hundred 

 sprays.

 arrivals to boast about. The Christinas 

 supply will be extremely short. The 

 snjjply of violets is also short and ])ric('s 

 remain at $1 to $1.50 per hundred. 



A few chrysanthemums are arriving, 

 but attract little .attention. Paper 

 White narcissi .are .arriving in large

 ageratnins, callas, mignonette ami niyo- 

 sotis coinj)ose the list. 



Various Notes. 



The body of William Lappe, in busi- 

 ness at Two Hundred and Fifty-second 

 street and Albany road, the Bronx, was 

 found Sunday night, December 19, hang- 

 ing from a <lining room transom in his 

 home, lie had for some time been a 

 sufferer liom nervous troubles. 



A meeting of the chairmen of the dif- 

 ferent sections of the New York Allied 

 Florists' Association was held at the 

 secretary's oflice, 4.3 West Eighteenth 

 street, S.aturday afternoon, December 

 ]8. Owing to the nearness of the holi 

 days, there was jiot ;i full attendjince, 

 but reports showed that matters were 

 progressing and a start in the direction 

 of actual jniblicity might soon be made. 



A seniitropical app(>nrance is given 

 to tlie store of .J. J. Coan. in the 

 Eighteenth street flower market, by well 

 fruited boughs of the ]ionderosa lemon 

 at the entrance. The boughs ar(> sold 

 for decorative purposes.
