THE NEW

 tion that is exceedingly effective either in daylight or artificial light. Growth is very free 

 and exceptionally vigorous and will prove satisfactory every month in the year. Delivery 

 strictly in rotation, beginning April first. PRICES: Own Root— $25 per JOO; $55 per 250; 

 $100 per 500; $200 per 1000. Grafted— $30 per 100; $70 per 250; $J30per 500; $260 per 1000.

WASHINGTON. 



Business for the past week has been 

 practically tied up. The thennomtter 

 at 6 and 8 degrees staring us in the 

 fac^, with snow and a good mixture of 

 northwest winds, caused stock of all 

 kinds to be scarce, consequently bringing 

 high prices. Beauties are scarce and 

 bring $6 to $12 per dozen, Maids and 

 Brides, $10 to $15 per hundred; carna- 

 tions, $2 to $4. Tulips and all Dutch 

 stock are coming in fine, but are a drug 

 on the market and do not go at all. 



During the freeze-up last nnek Mr. 

 Bissett lost a whole house of violets, 

 also Ley Bros, had a house of carnations 

 frozen up. Both have the sympathy of 

 the craft. Quite a few of the others 

 had a narrow call. 



Vice-President Freeman is quite busy 

 hustling around getting the S. A. F. 

 souvenir book in shape. F. H. K. 



Snow and continued cold weather do 

 not seem to check the flower business. 

 At present decorations and dinners keep 

 the boys on the jump. A. Gude & Bro. 

 had a decoration for the Tautalus 

 Club which called for four wagon-loads 

 of plants on February 4. Luckily none 

 was nipped. 



Gude & Bro. do not want to go on 

 record with the disappointed florists on 

 McKinley day. They had a big demand 

 for carnations and their sales were far 

 beyond their expectations. They had 

 a McKinley window, decorated with car- 

 nations, and handled 4,000 carnations 

 over the retail counter. Wm. F. Gude 

 has been laid up with a severe cold but 

 is able to be about again. 



J. H. Small & Son are getting in 

 shape for the inaugural ball. 



Wm. Smith, formerly with F. Hf 

 Kramer, has taken a position with Henry 

 I*fister. Eamblee, 



Broadripple, Ind. — The Dow Floral 

 Co. has been organized to take over the 

 business of the Bellevue Conservatories. 

 The oflBcers are : President, W. S. Dow ; 

 vice-president, Thos. Dow; secretary, T. 

 C. I>ow; treasurer, E. B. Dow.
