ket on the morning of January 13, ex- 

 cept a single shipment, and even then 

 60 cents per hundred was the asking 

 price; 50 cents for the balance of the 

 week seems likely to be top. Saturday, 

 January 11, many were cleaned up as 

 low as $3.50 per thousand. Violets were 

 forced too heavily for Christmas. Qual- 

 ity since then has demonstrated that 

 fact strongly. The left-overs find rest 

 with the sidewalk merchants while the 

 spring temperature prevails. These and 

 valley are at every corner, and perambu- 

 lating Broadway in charge of an army 

 of the enterprising sons of sunny Italy 

 and classic Greece. 



By the by, there is now in this coun- 

 try a society called the Pan-Hellenic 

 Union, composed of all the Greek united 

 bodies, with a membership of 250,000, 

 of which George D. Nicholas, the retail 

 florist, is secretary. Mr. Nicholas an- 

 nounces the ball of the Greek-American 

 Betail Florists' and Growers' Associa- 

 tion at the Palm Gardens, Lexington and 

 Third avenues and Fifty-eighth street, 

 on the evening of Friday, January 31, 

 and gives a cordial invitation to all the 

 Mew York florists to attend. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Florists' Club held its first meet- 

 ing of the year January 13, nearly 100 

 members being present. President C. H. 

 Totty gave his farewell address, in which 

 he gratefully acknowledged the loyalty 

 and good will of the members during the 

 year, after which he introduced the pres- 

 ident-elect, Charles B. Weathered. Mr. 

 Weathered made an address in which he 

 paid deserved credit to his predecessors, 

 Messrs. May, Dean, Scott, Traendly, 

 Sheridan, Totty and others, declaring it 



would be a hard task to equal their rec- 

 ords. He promised to give his best ef- 

 forts to the club's upbuilding. He sug- 

 gested methods for increasing the at- 

 tendance and pointed out the wisdom of 

 more acceptable clubrooms for the mem-

 7 : 30 was advocated and emphasized. He 

 congratulated the club on its financial 

 strength, having over $2,500 in the bank.

 spoke of the abundant talent in the club 

 and the general ability of its members,

 gratitude, pledging his best efforts. Ad-

 his wife. Trustee Guttman was unable
