one month ago. This was particularly 

 annoying, as the wreaths were all sold. 



George Aeugle says that the success of 

 the Philadelphia Cut Flower Co. is due 

 to the fact that it is not an all-star ag- 

 gregation. 



J. Liddon Pennock says it is the great- 

 est game in the world. 



J. A. Smith, of Michell 's, reports that 

 their seeds have arrived in excellent con- 

 dition. The most serious shortage is in 

 onions, which it is believed can readily 

 be made up from a new onion growing 

 district. 



W. J. Sherry, of the Johnson Seed 

 Co., reports that their bulb business in 

 1906 was, except in the case of a single 

 item, ahead of that of the old firm for 

 the year previous.

59. Do you consider Variegated Law- 

 son as a good variety for a grower wish- 

 ing only a few of the best sorts? 



Answer. — I recommend it to any one 

 who can grow pink Lawson well and am 

 sure it will produce more blooms than

NEIT YORK. 



The Market. 



If last week 's weather is a sample of 

 what we can produce you can put New 

 York on the list of popular winter re- 

 sorts and the big city can so far vie 

 with any section of the sunny south for 

 mild temperature. On Monday of this 

 week the average was 50 degrees and at 

 times the temperature rose to 60 de- 

 grees. After many days of rain the 

 sunshine and the balmy air made it like 

 a summer day. But the result of the 

 damp, cloudy, miserable weather of late 

 has been to produce the inevitable lack 

 of color and a shortage of the first 

 quality. As a result, notwithstanding a 

 natural drop in business since the holi- 

 days, prices for the best stock have 

 been fairly well maintained. By next 

 week the shipments of everything are ex- 

 pected to materially increase. Up to 

 date, January has not been as satisfac- 

 tory as last year, but the general pros- 

 perity among the retailers continues.
