Send us your retail orders. We 

 have the best facilities in the city 



profit, as stock is cheap. The main dif- 

 ficulty is in getting a sufBcient quan- 

 tity of roses and carnations, as thes^ 

 flowers are decidedly off crop. There 

 has been quite a call for locally grown 

 American Beauty roses, but these are 

 dwindling in number and the quality is 

 falling off rapidly. The best evidence 

 of the shortage in the carnation crop 

 is the fact that a large quantity of 

 these are finding their way into 

 the market before they have had an 

 opportunity to develop fully. Snap- 

 dragon also is quite scarce. Other 

 flowers are overplentiful. Fine sweet 

 peas, even of the Spencer varieties, go 

 begging at as low as $5 per thousand. 

 No one seems to want narcissi and 

 quantities are thrown away. There are 

 so many violets that . the street men 

 are kept well supplied, and jonquils, 

 lilacs, mignonette, and now tulips keep 

 the market pretty well filled up. 



Various Notes. 



Robert Shoch, who covers this ter- 

 ritory for the M. Rice Co., Philadelphia, 

 visited the stores last week. 



Edward S. Schmid has been confined 

 to his home for the last ten days, suf- 

 fering from a severe case of the grip.
