the low prices of cut flowers, princi- 

 pall7 carnations. The reason given by 

 a commission man was that the grow- 

 ers had at least a twenty-five per cent 

 larger cut than was expected; conse- 

 quently the larger supply considerably 

 lowered the price. F. C. Bauer had on 

 exhibition some blooms of Francis 

 Scott Key rose, which were of an un- 

 usually bright color. The librarian 

 was authorized to purchase a number 

 of books on horticulture, for addition 

 to the club library. After the question 

 box had been taken up and discussed, 

 the club adjourned. 



Various Notes. 



W. T, Myers has been confined to his 

 home since December 18, with a car- 

 buncle on his neck. Erysipelas threat- 

 ened to set in. This put him out of 

 the running during the busiest season 

 of the year. 



J. J. Perry has recovered sufficiently 

 to resume his duties as manager of the 

 S. S. PennocK-Meehan Go. store and was 

 right on the job Christmas week, as 

 busy as ever. 



Forthuber Bros, received their dis- 

 charge from the bankruptcy referee De- 

 cember 26. Their creditors will not re- 

 ceive anything. The business will be 

 continued under the same management 

 and name. 



Wm. Terry, who recently purchased 

 the store of Pierce & Co., at 1137 West 

 Baltimore street, was well pleased with 

 his first Christmas week's business. 



W. F. E. 



Santa Fe, N. M.— Manager E. V. 

 Boyle, of the Clarendon Gardens, has 

 just completed the construction of a 

 greenhouse, 25x66 feet. Further addi- 

 tioQA ani^ improveijaents ara;to be made 

 nexr year; and all' the old equipment 

 done away with.
