The Market. 



Business iliiiinji; tlie week was .slightly 

 better than it has l)een and there is 

 an almost unprecedented scarcity of 

 roses and carnations. Up to about ten 

 days ago there were far more of these 

 flowers than the market could consume, 

 but now it is almost impossible to se- 

 cure enough to go around. Kegardless 

 of this fact and that roses and carna- 

 tions are both better than they have 

 been, there is little increase in price. 

 There is a fair demand for American 

 Beauty roses, which are offered at about 

 $3 per dozen. Firetlame sells readily at 

 from $6 to .fs per hundred. Calendulas 

 «lean out daily and bring $4. Gar- 

 denias are also quite scarce and some 

 of the many out-of-town orders re 

 mained unfilled. There is little call 

 for valley. Wallflowers are in and are 

 being picked up as a novelty. Snaj)- 

 dragon is scarce, particularly in yel- 

 low, and the demand is a little heavier 

 than usual. The receipts of violets 

 ^ow heavier daily, forcing down the 

 price. Sweet peas are also much more 

 plentiful than they have been and there 

 18 no call for the enormous quantities 

 of narcissi that are to be had at prac- 

 tically the buyer's price. There has 

 been a good demand for Easter lilies 

 and rubrum also sells well on account 

 of heavy funeral work and the scarcity 

 of carnati(uis. 



Various Notes. 



The .^. 8. Pennock-Meehan Co. has 

 added an attractive automobile for de- 

 livery jturposes. The machine has a 

 green body with black trimmings, with 

 the firm's name in gold on either side. 

 A garage has been l)uilt at the rear of 

 the store at 1216 H street, northwest. 

 A part of the outside wall was torn 

 ^own and fashioned into a large en- 

 trance and a partition was erected in 

 side the store, just back of the iceboxes, 

 forming a room that serves well as the 

 garage. 



The Washington Floral Co., i:U!> K 

 street, northwest, last week was incor- 

 porated with a capital stock of $1,000, 

 divided into shares of a par value of 

 $100. The incor])orators and trustees 

 are .1. Loui- Loose. Nellie R. Loose and 

 Charles F. Diggs. At about the same 

 time the Washington Florists' Co. was 

 thrown into, bankruptcy. ^VFr. T^oose is 

 the jirincipal creditor. 



The Florists' Clul) is arranging for 

 an elaborate smoker in connection with 

 the monthly meeting to be held at 1214 

 F street, northwest, February 2. Nomi- 

 nations for officers to serve during the 

 ensuing year will also be calleil for at 

 this meeting. 



Among the visitors here last week 

 were Sidney H. Bayersdorfer, of Bayera- 

 <lorfer & Co.. Philadelphia. Pa.; William
