The Market. 



The closing of the first week in 

 September found the local market in 

 much better shape than it has been for 

 some time. Business for the month 

 seems to have been a little bit better 

 than in previous years. 



Flowers in all lines, with the excep- 

 tion of orchids, gardenias and valley, 

 continue to be plentiful. There is diffi- 

 culty in securing orchids, and prices 

 are high. Gardenias are almost equally 

 scarce. Shipments of valley are only 

 fifty per cent of normal. Boses are 

 good for this season, but the sale is 

 slow. Carnations are beginning to 

 come into the market in quantities, but 

 they are short-stemmed and meet with 

 little demand. Asters have about 

 reached high tide. Dahlias are offered 

 in larger quantities, but are not yet at 

 their best and do not meet with much 

 demand. The first October Frost chrys- 

 anthemums have made their appear- 

 ance, and sell well.

Various Notes. 



William J. Boas, trading as William J. 

 Boas & Co., paper box manufacturers, 

 of Philadelphia, has filed suit in the 

 local court against Z. D. Blackistone, 

 Fourteenth and H streets, northwest, 

 for $622.46, covering boxes sold to the 

 latter. 



Among the visitors in Washington 

 during the last week were Robert 

 Shoch, representing the M. Eice Co., 

 Philadelphia, and William E. McKis- 

 sick, of the Leo Niessen Co., Baltimore. 



Enormous crowds will fill the city the 

 latter part of this month, when the 

 members of the Grand Army of the Re- 

 public will hold the fiftieth and last 

 encampment, according to William F. 

 Gude, chairman of the citizens' com- 

 mittee which has charge of all arrange- 

 ments therefor. Mr. Gude states that 

 he expects that a large number of flo- 

 rist veterans will attend and it is his 

 desire that all of these call at the store 

 of Gude Bros. Co. and register. 



The Washington Floral Co., on Four- 

 teenth street, near New York avenue, 

 northwest, recently has had erected 

 above the store a large electric sign 

 bearing the words "Flowers, Popular 

 Prices." The sign is more than six 

 feet in height. C. L. L.
