WASHINGTON. 



The Market. 



Business last week was on a par with 

 the previous week. There was plenty of 

 good stock to go around. There was an 

 unusually heavy demand for Beauties. 

 Mums still hang on. Violets are not over- 

 plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



The Gude Bros. Co. is cutting some 

 extra fine Jeanne Nonin, which wholesale 

 at $25 per hundred, and some good White 

 Jones bring $12.50 per hundred. 



The farmers are bringing in holly and, 

 from the first seen, it looks as if it 

 will be good this year. It has fine 

 color and is well berried. 



The Washington Florists' Co. has a 

 golden ealla labeled Mrs. Koosevelt on 

 exhibition in the .window. 



All the stores showed the usual Thanks- 

 giving windows, with pumpkins, fruit, 

 vegetables and corn stalks. 



George Cooke reports an unusually busy 

 dinner week. 



The last meeting of the club was held 

 December 1, at the Eagles' hall, Sixth 

 and E streets, N.W. 



Fred Wolf, formerly with the Wash- 

 ington Florists' Co., and James Smith, 

 from Paterson, N. J., have taken posi- 

 tions with Z. D. Blackistone. O. O.
