The Market 



Many new faces are seen on the 

 streets, but not in the stores as yet, and 

 there is but little gain over the last two 

 weeks. All kinds of seasonable flowers 

 are plentiful; in fact, away ahead of the 

 demand, especially dahlias in dark colors 

 and Cochet roses, of which thousands are 

 seen. American Beauties are selling well 

 and are good. Carnations are finding 

 ready sale at $1.50 per hundred. Asters 

 are about over, which is regretted at the 

 stores. Single violets have made their 

 appearance, but are poor as yet and 

 hardly last the day out.

weather was fine, though extremely warm, 

 and the attendance was about 700 on the 

 first day. Besides the Baltimore and 

 local contingent, there were many visitors 

 from the trade in Philadelphia, New York 

 and Washington, and all were more than 

 pleased at the extent, variety and beauty 

 of the display. In the big packing shed, 

 which is three stories high, there were 

 tables running the full length of the 

 shed, on which was spread an abundant 

 and tempting array of edibles, and down 

 the center of the table were enormons 

 bunches of dahlias of every size, shape 



and hue. Under about 400,000 square 

 feet of glass there are growing more 

 than 400 varieties of geraniums for stock 

 purposes. The farm now includes some 

 300 acres. The party inspected some 

 bench material which was being treated 

 with creosote in one of the creosote tanks 

 which have been erected on Mr. Vincent's 

 place, as he is a firm believer in the nse 

 of creosote on all greenhouse material.
