to Bum up the profit, from all indica- 

 tions it was the best known in the 

 history of oujr city. {.There jmaftcmgoqd 

 variety of stock. While the prices 

 were rather high for the quality sold to 

 the retailers, they managed to ^ass it 

 along at a good profit. Smaft— plants 

 sold out early, only a few large plants 

 and baskets being left over. Roses, and 

 ct^nsitionf were in good supply and 

 quality. Violets were scarce^ Orchids 

 and valley sold well. Ferns and green 

 goods moved in great quantities. Holly 

 was scarce, as there was .,no local) 

 supply. 



Various Notes. 



J. Seulberger reports buflin^es as be- 

 yond expectations. Everything was 

 sold and in a satisfactory way. 



The Thorsted Floral Co. ^ays that it 

 was a landslide, the best in the his- 

 tory of the place. It was' an all-night 

 job to get the orders out. 



The H. M. Sanborn Co. reports en- 

 tire satisfaction with the results. 



Clarke Bros, had a good clean-up; 

 lota of stock handled at good prices and 

 •an increase over former yearfi. 



Q. Kossi, of Berkeley, has sold his 

 place to the school board, which will 

 build on the site. The price is reported 

 to be extremely satisfactory.

The Market. 



Business immediately before Christ- 

 Tnas was rather slow, but, as usual, 

 there was a rush at the last minute, 

 and the stores, employing, in most 

 cases, extra help, had their hands full. 

 There was no shortness of sto6k in any 

 line. Good chrysanthemums sold well, 

 bringing something like old-time prices. 

 There was a large number of blooms 

 on the market, and the ' quality wai? 

 much better than usual at Christmas; 

 Carnations met with a good demand, 

 and while there was no scarcity, there 

 were no reds to spare and increased 

 prices did not_come amiss. Roses were 

 plentiful and of good quality. Most 

 stores were making special efforts to 

 sell plants, and these wer^ija good 

 shape and plentiful variety. The bas- 

 kets of immortelles and artificial flow- 

 ers were in demand up till the day 

 preceding Christmas, when-^^iie'' red 

 ajtiele was mostly sought for and pur-

Mrs. L. W. McCoy did good business 

 in decorating stores and offices, which 

 helped to keep help employed during 

 the slack season before Christmas.

The Blarket. . ^ 



The first four days of Christmas 

 week were sharp and bright, with tem- 

 peratures a little higher than those of 

 the previous week. This weather was 

 Ideal to bring out the shoppers and it 

 has helped the florists. ChriSTBias day 

 was somewhat wet, but this did not 

 seem to interfere with trade. , - 



The wholesale growers mre cleaned* 

 l"Av ^®*!ly everything early in the 

 week and the balance warf called for 

 later on. Except some varieties of cut 

 flowers, the retailers had plenty of 

 stock on hand and hardly anything i^jw

Mrs. Geo. Sha'wye r The ntiost popular 



rose of its color
