the fact that the up-to-date decorator 

 must be an artist, full of original ideas 

 with something new and different for 

 each customer. 



There has been a good deal of funeral 

 work, but the high prices have kept down 

 the small trade. However, taken alto- 

 gether, the new year is starting out sat- 

 isfactorily. 



The sending of ball bunches, which 

 was so popular a few years ago, has 

 again become the correct thing and a 

 peep into an artistically decorated ball- 

 room, with seventy-five or 100 elegantly 

 dressed women, each with a large bunch 

 of beautiful flowers, would make the 

 heart of a stone man beat a little above 

 normal. Hoo-Hoo.

The Market 



The last year has been a prosperous 

 one; no assignments were made and 

 there was much rebuilding. The new 

 year has begun well. Trade last week 

 was satisfactory. New Year's came in 

 with many entertainments and quite a 

 number of decorations were called for, 

 while cut flowers were used in various 

 ways, mostly in bunches arranged for 

 tables. 



Carnations still are in short supply 

 but roses are coming in more steadily. 

 Callas are scarce and Paper "White nar- 

 cissi in many cases take their place. 

 Mignonette is getting plentiful and 

 greens of all kinds are steady. Some 

 poinsettias still are to be had. 



Various Notes. 



M. M. Ellis, gardener for Gen. John 

 Gill, has a fine sport from Enchantress, 

 darker than the Eose-pink Enchantress 

 and just as large and more double.

Leonard Morse, representing Thomas

J. L. T. 



Cedar Rapids, Ia. — Suit was filed in 

 the superior court, December 29, against 

 the Cedar Rapids Floral Co. The writ 

 is for $105, said to be due the Sharer 

 estate for rent. 



Liberty, Ind. — W. N. Thorp came near 

 burning out last week. After firing up, 

 about 1 a. m., he noticed the soot burning 

 in the stack and this soon fired the tim- 

 bers around it. There was no damage 

 to the houses.

Malta, O. — W. C. Scovell says Christ- 

 mas trade was the best he ever had. He 

 sold a nice lot ,of mums, some in 7-inch 

 pots, and will have them for several 

 weeks. 



Cresco, Ia. — Considerable damage was 

 done to W. B. Perry's greenhouses, Jan- 

 uary 1, by fire caused by an explosion of 

 gas in the furnace. Several hundred dol- 

 lars ' worth of plants and 700 feet of 

 glass were destroyed. Bursting of the 

 pipes and the consequent shutting off 

 of heat added to the damage to plants. 

 The damage was repaired as rapidly as 

 possible.
