The Market. 



While the last week was a busy one 

 for the store men making preparations 

 for Christmas, the cut flower business 

 was quiet and stock of all kinds was 

 scarce, as not much of anything was 

 coming in at our commission houses. 



Christmas trade was fully up to pre- 

 vious years. It is reported that the 

 leading retailers booked more advance 

 orders for plants and cut flowers than in 

 any other year. Plant sales are reported 

 large, both of blooming and other plants. 

 Everything sold well in the plant line. 

 Taking it altogether, the store men seem 

 well pleased with their Christmas busi- 

 ness. 



Great quantities of ground pine, holly 

 and laurel have been sold, many being 

 early sold out of green, as this was 

 scarce. Holly went begging at $2 per 

 case and all of poor quality. 



In cut stock, everything was scarce, 

 as we had little sunshine this month. 

 Prices on all kinds of stock were away 

 up. There Avas a decided scarcity in 

 roses, carnations and violets. The fancy 

 grades in carnations brought up to $8 

 per hundred, with nothing under $4. 

 Violets were up to $2 per hundred for 

 fancy Californias. 



The top price for choice roses was 

 $15 to $20, with only a few in the mar- 

 ket and only about half the orders 

 filled. Romans, Paper Whites and valley 

 were in good supply at hardly any ad- 

 vance in price. 



Various Notes. 



Frank Weber returned from Kansas 

 City December 22, where he attended 

 a meeting of nurserymen. 



H. Stocke has taken the place va- 

 cated by H. H. Rieman with the Michel 

 Plant & Bulb Co. 



Fred C. Weber has had one of the 

 prettiest windows of any of the west 

 end florists; all red and very attractive. 



Will Adles has left the employ of 

 Mrs. M. yi. Ayers. 



C. Young & Sons Co. will again have 

 the decorations for the big Imperial ball 

 at the St. Louis Club hall. This event 

 is one of the largest of the season with 

 the society folks. 



Among the uptown florists who have 

 had pretty window decorations are the 

 Ellison Floral Co., Kalisch & Son, Eg- 

 geling Floral Co. and F. H. Weber. 



Riessen Floral Co., on South Broad- 

 way, is always in line with attractive 

 window decorations. At this place all 

 bands are busy. 



The officers of the St. Louis Florists' 

 Club will hold a meeting some time this 

 week to talk over show matters and to 

 arrange to complete the $10,000 guar- 

 antee fund not later than the February 

 meeting. J. J. B.
