PHILADELPHIA. 



The Market. 



Last week closed poorly. The de- 

 mand, which had been wonderfully strong 

 up to Thursday, fell away on Friday 

 and Saturday, the market dragging 

 badly. Carnations suffered most. This 

 IS due partly to the weather, which is 

 certainly not carnation weather, and 

 partly to the fact that the divine flower 

 IS not in especial demand for weddings 



or commencements. The supply has been 

 enormous, the average quality rather 

 poor, and prices are away down. 



I'his week opened auspiciously. While 

 business is not as good as it was a 

 week ago, there is considerable activity, 

 owing to some more commencements and 

 wedditjgs. The supply of fancy roses is 

 rather limited, all the good stock offered 

 realizing satisfactory prices. 



Peonies, locally grown, are over. We 

 are receiving some out-of-town stock, 

 and will soon be dependent on E. W. 

 Ciaehring and his followers, for cold 

 storage stock, which promises to last 

 quite as long as the weddings. Sweet 

 peas are abundant and the quality of 

 some is excellent. Cattleya Mossise and 

 valley are both fine. Centaurea is in 

 strong supply. Phil owes the Flower 

 Market and S. S. Pennock an apology 

 for saying that Easter lilies are over. 

 They are not, and the quality is excel- 

 lent. Coreopsis is abundant and very 

 good. Water lilies have made their ap- 

 pearance. 



Various Notes. 



Edward Blester, of Broad street and 

 Susquehanna avenue, will build a hand- 

 some new store on the property adjoin- 

 ing his present location, renting the lat- 

 ter as a dwelling. 



Miss Rigby, for many years in charge 

 of the books of J. J. Habermehl's Sons, 

 Twenty-second and Diamond streets, has 

 resigned her position. She will be mar- 

 ried this month. 



Wm. Wunder, of Pittville, is sending 

 fine Harrisii lilies to the Flower Mar- 

 ket. 



Mr. and Mrs. B. Esehner have gone 

 over to New York to meet Mr. and Mrs. 

 Bice, who are expected home on Satur- 

 day. 



Alphonse Pericat, of Collingdale, is 

 sending very fine Cattleya Mossiae to 

 Samuel S. Pennock. 



Jos. Bevis & Son are building two new 

 houses about 16x125 feet each. They 

 are growers of Brides, Maids, Liberties, 

 and, this year, Bichmonds.
