CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Today is January 1 and I wish a happy 

 and prosperous New Year to all. If 

 our business holds out like it has been 

 for the past few weeks it will surely be 

 a prosperous year. Since Chriatmas stock 

 has been very scarce. No matter what 

 kind of flowers or green came into the 

 wholesale houses, it was snaiched up at 

 top prices. As a matter of fact, New 

 Year's prices ruled higher than Christ- 

 mas, which was due to the general scarc- 

 ity of stock. There was no pickled stock. 

 The growers were kept cleaned out as 

 fast as the flowers would open. A good 

 proportion of the blooms were cut before 

 they were ready, but this had to be 

 done to come anywhere near filling or- 

 ders. Violets were the only flowers which 

 came anywhere near equal to the de- 

 mand. Several thousands were delayed 

 in transit and arrived too late, so that 

 they were almost a total loss. 



The report of the retailers for Christ- 

 mas is that the volume of business was 

 fully up to expectations. Everyone could 

 easily have handled more stock. The 

 business showed a healthy increase over 

 last year, fully in proportion to the 

 growth of our city. 



Various Notes. 



Saturday, January 13, is the next 

 regular meeting of the Florists' Society. 

 The last meeting was very enthusiastic 

 and a goodly number of the members 

 were present. Many items of importance 

 to the welfare of the society were dis- 

 cussed and it was determined to infuse 

 new energy into it and bring it to the 

 front along new lines. At the coming 

 meeting a large number of the members 

 expect to be present and a lively time 

 is anticipated. 



The selection of a park superintendent 

 by our new city government is still 

 in the balance. B. P. Critchell, who has 

 made such a fine showing since he has 

 occupied the office, is still in charge and 

 each day's delay seems to add to his 

 chances of reappointment.

Dubuque, Ia. — W. A. Harkett reports 

 that it was the best- Christmas in his ex- 

 perience, covering thirty-three years. 

 There was enough stock, except red, and 

 a surplus of white. Zero weather was 

 not an aid in delivery.
