WASHINGTON 



The Market 



The week presents the same condi- 

 tion as has obtained for some time with 

 respect to the shortage of roses and 

 carnations and the prices on these are 

 necessarily what the commission men 

 and wholesalers wish to ask, as the re- 

 tailer has no alternative This does not 

 apply to anything else, however, as 

 there are plenty of lilacs, mignonette, 

 sweet peas, violets, freesias, narcissi 

 and lilies, so that no one need go with- 

 out flowers. Aside from roses and car- 

 nations the only flowers holding a price 

 are gardenias and valley. Tulips are 

 coming in larger quantities. 



Various Notes. 



Fred H. Kramer is cutting some fine 

 tulips and daffodils and his bulbous 

 stock as a whole is excellent. 



William F. Gude last week conferred 

 with a number of interested parties 

 with a view to preparing for the annual 

 encampment of the G. A. K., which is 

 to be held in this city. Mr. Gude has 

 full charge of the arrangements, 



.A large number of visitors registered 

 here last week, many of them coming 

 to attend the third annual convention 

 of the Chamber of Commerce of the 

 United States. Among these visitors 

 were John G. Heinl, of Terra Haute, 

 Ind., whose son played a very promi- 

 nent part in the proceedings of the 

 convention; Samuel Bernstein and Da- 

 vid Benjamin, of Kingston, N. Y.; W. 

 H. Van Winkle, Jr., of Newark, N. J., 

 and H. B. Ruppert, of Boston. 



The sympathy of the entire trade is 

 being extended to M. J. McCabe, of 

 Anacostia, D. C, who last week met 

 with the loss of his brother, Bernard 

 O. McCabe. 



Short talks on business building by 

 Prof. Robert G. Wall, on the value of 

 organization by George W. Spier, a real 

 movie show with pictures direct from 

 the war zone furnished by Sidney B. 

 Lust and Herbert M. Osborn, Victrola 

 music and a Dutch supper during ^bich 

 queer looking long-stemmed pipes of 

 the corncob variety were used, were the 

 features of the February meeting of 

 the Florists' Club. In view of the 

 elaborate entertainment, all business 

 except that incident to the nomination 

 of ofiicers for the ensuing year was 

 dispensed with. As a result of the ac- 

 tion, the present oflBcers will hold over 

 during 191i5. C. L. L.
