NEWPORT, E. I. 



John B. Sullivan, florist, who is a 

 member of the House of Representa- 

 tives of Rhode Island from Newport, 

 was defeated for the position of 

 speaker. He becomes the floor leader 

 of the minority, however. 



Practically all of the florists report 

 good business at Christmas and nearly 

 all made good clean-ups. Potted plants 

 sold well and made-up baskets were a 

 feature. 



Much interest is being manifested in 

 the coming shows here and never be- 

 fore has there been such activity as at 

 present among the growers. Arrange- 

 ments are being made by the big seed 

 concerns of other cities to grow their 

 sweet pea novelties here in prepara- 

 tion for the annual show of the Amer- 

 ican Sweet Pea Society in July. The 

 newly elected executive committee of 

 the Newport Horticultural Society and 

 the committees of the Newport Garden 

 Club have begun active measures to 

 be ready for the opening of the big 

 display. 



Carl Jurgens began cutting his jce 

 supply on Green pond Tuesday, Decem- 

 ber 29, the ice measuring more than 

 eight inches. W. H. M. 



ROCHESTER, N. Y. 



The Market. 



Notwithstanding the severe cold, 

 business, both wholesale and retail, has 

 been remarkably good. The market in 

 general is lower than it was a year ago. 

 Large shipments arrive daily and are 

 disposed of rather fast. Extra fine 

 American Beauties are seen and bring 

 fairly good prices. Carnations have 

 been good sellers. The shipments have 

 been good, with far more white than 

 colored. Easter lilies are quite plenti- 

 ful and meet all demands. The calls 

 for valley have been larger this last 

 week and^elegant stock is on the mar- 

 ket. Orchids, which are smaller on 

 account of the season, are cheaper and 

 move more freely. Cypripediums sell 

 rather slowly. Snapdragons and for- 

 get-me-nots sell well. Jonquils and 

 Paper Whites move quite easily. 



rf I Various Notes. 



George B. Hart is much pleased with 

 the holiday trade. There were more 

 customers, but the lower prices kept 

 down the receipts. 



The Rochester Floral Co. reports that 

 just about as many customers were 

 cared for at Christmas, but sales were 



$60.00 per 100 



75.00 per 100 



125.00 per 100 



Cold Storage Lily of the Valley 



Owinfir to war conditions, good stock is scarce. Secure your rcQuire- 

 ments at once for holiday forcing. Finest selected pips, packed in cases of 250, 

 500 and 1000 each.

Mention Tbe Berlew when yon write. 



New 



much smaller than last year. 

 Year's trade was quite slim. 



J. B.jB^Uer Sons had a quite good 

 holiday trade. Tli«y report one large 

 decoration at the state armory, which 

 took several days. 



Oliver Mixner, of H. E. Wilson's 

 force, is improving satisfactorily. 



H. E. Wilson is showing some fine 

 white Dutch hyacinths in full bloom. 



which sell quickly. Christmas trade, 

 although not up to its usual high stand- 

 ard, was satisfactory, considering the 

 present state of things. 



George Kramer, who has been work- 

 ing during the holidays with S. A. 

 Anderson, of Buffalo, is again in town. 



George T. Boucher says he had a 

 good Christmas trade, extending well 

 over to New Year's. H. J. H.
