DECEMBBB 1, 1904. 



BALTIMORE. MD. 



Thanksgiving business was all that 

 could be eocpected. I believe everybody 

 here did a nice business, selling about ail 

 the stock there was to be had. At the Ex- 

 change business was better than any pre- 

 vious Thanksgiving. Everything sold out 

 clean and considerable more could have 

 been disposed of. Violets and good roses 

 were the scarcest articles. This week has 

 opened with good demand and stock a 

 little short. Mums axe practically done, 

 Jerome Jones being the only variety of con- 

 sequeomce now coming in. The Exchange is 

 in receipt of the first shipment of sweet 

 peas for the season. Paper Whites arp 

 beginning to arrive and sell very well. 

 Prices advanced very little last week. 

 Beauties goinig at $2 to $4 per dozen, teas 

 at $4 to $8 per hundred, carnations at 

 $1.50 to $3, violets 60 cents to 75 cents. 



W. L. Kennedy, of Kennedy Bros., has 

 opened a retail store at 702 N. Fremont 

 avenue. 



The thermometer registered as low as 

 16 degrees here early Monday morning, 

 this being the coldest we have had here 

 this season. A. F.

Thajiksgiving trade was fully as good 

 as ini 1903. The principal demand was 

 for yellow chrysanthemums and pink and 

 red carnations. White flowers moved more 

 slowly, but practically everything cleared 

 out. One of our local florists advertised 

 a sale of $1 chrysanthemums for 25 cents 

 on November 22 and warranted them to 

 keep fresh until Thanksgiving! This did 

 not affect the trade for good stock. There 

 was a nice demand for pot plants and 

 taken all in all business was very satis- 

 factory. ^, JJ^ Q_
