TWIN CITIES. 



The Market 



Trade conditions have been indeed 

 very good, particularly the last few days, 

 as all dealers have experienced a very 

 heavy demand for funeral work. Stock 

 has been coming in very nicely. Roses 

 are fairly plentiful and some very fine 

 stock is shown, particularly in pink, as 

 we have four good varieties in Chatenay, 

 Killarney, Moultons and Bridesmaid. 

 Good Richmond sell well, but the grower 

 has to have a large number of them in 

 order to be able to cut many that can 

 be called selects. Carnations command a 

 good figure, bringing from 75 cents to 

 $1.50 a dozen. Some of our violet grow- 

 ers have had, if anything, more than 

 what was called for, but on account of 

 the good season that they have had they 

 can well afford to lose a few. White 

 lilac has been used considerably the past 

 week and orchids have also been used 

 to some extent, also large numbers of 

 valley. 



Minneapolis. 



Ralph Latham reports a good trade; 



in fact he says he will be well satisfied if 

 trade keeps up as well as it has the 

 paot week, from now until Easter. 



O. C. Swanson says trade is good and 

 is well satisfied at the way stock is com- 

 ing in. The mild winter has had a prof- 

 itable effect on not only the retailer, but 

 likewise the grower. Mr. Swanson thinks 

 well of the new pink rose. Miss Kate 

 Moulton, and is able to sell them in 

 preference to other pinks; a perfect 

 Moulton is hard to beat, their demand 

 for it is heavy and customers ask for it 

 as the Minneapolis rose. 



Rice Bros, are doing nicely. They have 

 contracts with some retailers to supply 

 certain stocks the year around. They 

 turn over their stock on small margins 

 and have succeeded in building up a nice 

 trade, both in and out of town. 



The New York Floral Co. makes it a 

 practice to have from 1,000 to 2,000 car- 

 nations at all times and disposes of large 

 numbers at 75 cents a dozen. 



St. PauL 



The Ramaley Floral Co. has been do- 

 ing a very nice business but was unfor- 

 tunate in cashing checks. Saturday night 



WASHINGTON, D. C. 



a man about 50 years old ordered a 

 wreath for $6 to be delivered Sunday 

 morning and in payment tendered a 

 check for $15, receiving $9 in cash. 

 The delivery boy was unable to find the 

 number and the check also came back. 

 The same man played the same game 

 on C. F. Haupt. 



L. L. May & Co. report good business. 

 At the greenhouses they have a big lot 

 of Easter lilies and from all appearance 

 they will have them ready by the thou- 

 sands. 



Owing to the death of T. C. Field, one 

 of our leading merchants, all retailers 

 have been kept very busy the last few 

 days. Some dealers have reported deliv- 

 ering for this one funeral as many 

 as throe wagons well filled with designs.

CINONNATL 



The Market 



The business the past week did not 

 develop anything very startling, but it 

 moved along in good shape and in the 

 long run was first-class. The wholesale 

 houses report shipping trade quiet. Home 

 trade has been good and has made up 

 for the lack of out-of-town business. 



The supply of stock has not been 

 heavy, so the demand has cleaned up all 

 that was to be had. Roses and carna- 

 tions have been in about equal supply. 

 Bulbous stock has been coming in larger 

 quantities and has been selling very 

 well at good prices. Some extra good 

 Dutch hyacinths are offered and meet 

 with ready sale. Good long-stemmed 

 tulips in all colors are very good stock 

 and sell well. Green goods are selling 

 only fairly. 



It is to be hoped that Valentine's 

 day will make a Doom in the violet 

 market, as this flower sadly needs a 

 boost. At this writing prospects are 

 good for that day and with the supply
