WASHINQTON, D. 0. 



The Market. 



Flowers last week were more plenti- 

 ful than they have been for some time, 

 the only shortage noted being of Amer- 

 ican Beauty roses, of which there were 

 hardly enough to supply ordinary de- 

 mands. St. Valentine's day business 

 was heavier than in previous years. 

 Baskets of cut flowers, sprays and 

 potted plants sold well, and in addition 

 there was a number of- large party deco- 

 rations. White and yellow tulips are 

 quite plentiful and good. There is a 

 better demand for snapdragon. Violets 

 are sold on the street at prices almost 

 below those at which the storeman can 

 purchase them at wholesale. Mignon- 

 ette is good and in fair demand. 



Various Notes. 



Adolph Gude has quite recovered 

 from the recent accident in which he 

 was badly scalded by steam when a 

 pipe which he was endeavoring to blow 

 out slipped and allowed the steam to 

 touch his body. 



The Washington Florists Co. an- 

 nounces that it will take possession of 

 its new quarters, on Fourteenth street, 

 near New York avenue, March 1. This 

 store is neither as large nor as impos- 

 ing as the old one, but will be quite 

 attractive when the work of remodeling 

 the front is completed. J. Harper is 

 manager of the store. 



C. Albert Small, of the New York 

 store of J. H. Small & Sons, visited 

 Washington last week to be present at 

 the annual dinner of the Gridiron Club, 

 the season's biggest event here. 



A large number of florists aided in 

 the celebration incident to the twenty- 

 fifth anniversary of the Washington 

 Board of Trade at the new Willard 

 hotel last week. The large ballroom on 

 the tenth floor was handsomely deco- 

 rated by J. H. Small & Sons. The ceil- 

 ing was entirely masked with greens, 

 and hundreds of Japanese lanterns 

 aided in the making of a garden scene. 

 C. L. L. 



Durham, N. C. — The sun does not 

 shine often during the winter months, 

 even as far south as this place. Fred 

 Roll says that for three weeks in De- 

 cember he had no sun, and January 29 

 was the first day it appeared in the 

 first month of this year. Although his 

 roses are what is to be expected under 

 these conditions, his carnations are 

 looking fine, as they have been all 

 winter.
