The Market 



New Year's brought a good demand 

 and the total of business done was excel- 

 lent, but flowers were so scarce fliat much 

 more could have been done had there been 

 the stock to do it with. Violets appeared 

 to be more in demand than any other 

 flower, and brought the same price as at 

 Christmas. We have every reason to be 

 satisfied with the business and, while in 

 a good many cases it did not total up 

 as much as last year, the only reason for 

 that was the general scarcity. 



It is now entirely too warm for the 

 time of year, the sort of weather that 

 will not do stock any good, and we are 

 hoping for some cold and bright weather 

 to bring stock back to what it ought to 

 be. 



As the days are growing longer we can 

 now look for a gradual increase in the 

 supply of carnations at least. Roses will 

 be affected as well and it will not be 

 long until there will be plenty of stock. 

 If the business will just hold up as well 

 as it lias done, we will not need to fear 

 an oversupply for many weeks yet. 



Various Notes. 



The bad weather has made itself felt 

 in the ranks of the florists and from 

 many sides we are hearing reports of 

 someone sick. In all cases so far it has 

 been nothing serious, just a cold or a 

 touch of the grip, but even that is bad 

 enough. George Magrie has been con- 

 fined to his bed for several days, but will 

 soon be about again. C. J. Jones is re- 

 ported quite sick with a heavy cold. 

 Walter Grey is also a little under the 

 weather, but is able to be about. 



The next regular meeting of the Flo- 

 rists' Society will be held at William 

 Murphy's wholesale house, 311 Main 

 street. Charles Critchell and William 

 Murphy will dispense refreshments in the 

 way of lunch and cigars. This meeting 

 will be an important one and the officers 

 of the society especially request everyone, 

 whether members of the society or not, 

 to be present. One of the important 

 things to be decided at this meeting will 

 be the selection of a man whom the so- 

 ciety can recommend for the position as
