The Market. 



The market has been rather quiet. 

 Stock is plentiful. Mums are moving 

 slower than last week. Boses are quite 

 plentiful, both pink and white. Amer- 

 ican Beauties are not so abundant and 

 prices arc high. Chrysanthemums are 

 being used for funeral, bouquets, mostly 

 pink and white, although a few yellow 

 have been seen, Violets are scarce and 

 high. The weather has been bad the last 

 week. It has been sleeting and snow- 

 ing all week. This had quite an effect on 

 business. 



Variotu Notes. 



R. J. Turner, of Independence, Mo., 

 was in this city this week. He is looking 

 up material to build a large greenhouse 

 for forcing lettuce. Mr. Turner deals in 

 ice in summer and is now to grow let- 

 tuce to sell in winter. 



A. r. Barbe is cutting some fine mums." 

 He grows Ivory to perfection. Few flor- 

 ists in this city can grow Ivory to any 

 size. Mr. Barbe furnished one of the 

 Walnut street stores 1,000 mums in one 

 day last week. He is also cutting some 

 fine Brides and Maids, and finds a ready 

 sale for such stock. Mr, Barbe does a 

 large Sunday business for the cemetery 

 and has no opposition there. 



K. S. Brown & Son were almost 

 swamped with funeral work this week. 



Mr. Fruedenthal reports business to 

 have been quiet last week. 



Mr. Broman, of Independence, did not 

 sell his greenhouses, as has been stated. 



Mr. Thornhill, at Eosedale, is about to 

 shut down his greenhouses on account of 

 no water at hand. He grows mostly let- 

 tuce and geraniums. As we have a deep 

 snow, it will help out some, but it is 

 rather uphill work to those who have to 

 haul water. 



The Alpha Floral Co, will move De- 

 cember 8 to 1105 Walnut street, where it 

 will have quite a large place, with fine 

 show windows. The old place was too 

 small to accommodate the business done.
