The Market. 



^ light demand, with short stocks, 

 proved satisfactory last week. Since 

 none of the retailers had stocked up 

 heavily in anticipation of the New 

 Year's demand, the stock was cleaned 

 up in good order and cut flowers were 

 generally scarce. New Year's buyers 

 divided their interests between cut flow- 

 ers and x>otted plants, mums and roses 

 being the favorites in the former class 

 and cyclamens and ferns the leaders in 

 the latter. 



Potted hyacinths and tulips are com- 

 ing to hand more freely all the time. 

 Unfavorable weather conditions have 

 held back primroses, so that offerings 

 are not so good as might be desired. A 

 few good examples of potted pompons 

 and genistas are showing also. 



There was a light supply of mums left 

 for New Year's day, but a considerable 

 number of these were of good grade and 

 everything of this description cleaned 

 up easily at top prices. 



There has been an increase in the cut 

 of orchids, although nothing great, and 

 valley is in oversupply. Bouvardias and 

 euphorbias are common. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Richardson are re- 

 ceiving the congratulations of the entire 

 trade over the birth, December 30, of an 

 81/4-pound daughter, who has been 

 named Edith Mae, in honor of her pa- 

 ternal aunt. Both mother and daughter 

 are reported as progressing splendidly. 



Melby's Flower Shop enjoyed a good 

 run on potted plants the end of last 

 week. The window display space in this 

 shop has been replaced by a bank of 

 shelves.

 funeral work last week; other business
