condition. His palms, ferns, poinset- 

 tias and other Christmas plants are 

 only specimens. A house of orchids is 

 also in fine shape, the best in the city. 



Henry Kusik & Co. are busy as bees 

 preparing for Christmas orders, espe- 

 cially in supplies and wire-work. It is 

 hard to keep up with the orders for 

 wire designs. They are receiving a 

 large supply of cut flower stock from 

 the growers in this vicinity and also 

 from the north. They report orders 

 coming in faster than the supply of 

 cut flowers arrives. Mr. Kusik reports 

 a steady gain of business in out-of- 

 town orders. 



Adolph Mohr has sold all his Christ- 

 mass pot plants. He has only to deliver 

 them the day the plants are wanted. 

 He had a fine lot of begonias and poin- 

 settias. His poinsettias will measure 

 twenty inches across the bracts by 

 Christmas. 



Joseph Austin has been bothered 

 again with his rheumatism for the last 

 two weeks and is not able to be about 

 his greenhouses, which are in good 

 shape for the Christmas trade. He has 

 a nice lot of begonias, poinsettias and 

 cyclamens, in just the right size for his 

 business. 



Biedermann & Son received a ship- 

 ment of some extra good palms. An 

 increase in the demand for decorations 

 caused him to increase his stock. He 

 has his houses in excellent shape at 

 present. W. J. B.

The Market. 



The market was dull last week. The 

 two weeks of cloudy weather have de- 

 creased the supply and lowered the 

 quality of the stock. The retailers say 

 their business is not up to the mark 

 of last year at this time, and work for 

 weddings, receptions, dinners and oth^r 

 social occasions has been quiet for the 

 last two weeks. The dark, dull weather 

 also hurt transient trade in the down- 

 town district. 



The supply of roses is fairly good 

 Killarney is away off color, but Rich 

 mond and Hadley are of excellent qual 

 ity. Ward, too, is a little off color 

 Beauties are good, but are not over 

 plentiful. It is said that carnations 

 will be short in supply for next week 

 and will go as high as $10 per hun- 

 dred for fancy feds. The Enchantress 

 varieties are in fair supply now, but 

 these, too, will run short. A few mums 

 are still coming in, but they are about
