The Market 



A week of sun has produced a great 

 difference in greenhouse crops. Eoses 

 are coming in more plentifully and some 

 fine Brides and Maids can be had, also 

 good Gates. Long-stemmed American 

 Beauties are coming in more freely and 

 find ready sale. For the first time this 

 winter are there roses carried over from 

 day to day. The wholesalers report a 

 fair trade in all lines except bulb stuff, 

 especially callas. Double violets have 

 been coming in heavily with not enough 

 singles to go around. Strange to say, 

 the street fakirs are handling good single 

 violets at 20 centii per hundred, which is 

 much less than they can be bought for 

 here. Carnations were never better in 

 quality and the demand seems greatest 

 for white. In pink, Lawson is the one 

 most called for, with plenty of the 

 smaller grades of pink left over. The 

 only thing that really is scarce is greens, 

 of which there are not near enough to go 

 around. Especially is this true of as- 

 paragus in bunches, which has been short 

 all winter. 



Various Notes. 



The Gardeners' Club of Baltimore 

 held its annual election of officers and 

 banquet on March 13. It was one of 

 the best attended meetings the club has 

 ever had, largely due to the hot compe- 

 tition for president. The following of- 

 ficers were elected for the ensuing year: 

 President, Philip B. Welsh; vice-presi- 

 dent, F. C. Bauer; secretary, John J. 

 Perry; financial secretary, George Tal- 

 bott; treasurer, Fred G. Burger; librar- 

 ian, C. M. "Wagner. 



A number of the local craft visited 

 "W. B. Sands, of Lake Roland, on March 

 9. After an inspection of the green- 

 house plant the host led the way to the 

 dining-room, where tiie tables were heavi- 

 ly laden with good things. 



H. Weber & Sons are sending in some 

 fine Harrisii lilies. 



Wm. B. Sands is cutting extra good 

 valley. 



A. J. Fellouris, of New York, was a 

 visitoi; last week and reports an increas- 

 ing demand for all hardy green goods. 

 B. Eschner, of M. Rice & Co., was in 

 town last week and so was the sales- 

 man for H. Bayersdorfer & Co., who 

 had a wagon-load of samples. A. F. 



Toronto, Ont.— The King Construc- 

 tion Co. reports a large amount of 

 greenhouse building. They have orders 

 from as far west as Denver.
