The Market. 



There was quite an improvement in the 

 demand for flowers last week, all special 

 stDck being ordered ahead or sold on 

 sight. The social season is now on in 

 earnest. Balls, dinners and weddings are 

 of daily occurrence. One of the largest 

 balls given this season was held at the 

 Belvidere hotel, where red was the chosen 

 color, using 1,500 red roses and 1,500 

 red carnations, besides an enormous quan- 

 tity of potted plants. We were visited 

 by' a cold wave, but it did not go lower 

 than 16 degrees above zero and only 

 lasted three days. We are now having 

 sultry, cloudy weather, with the tempera- 

 ture around 28 degrees. 



Roses show the bad effects of so much 

 cloudy weather, being weak-stemmed and 

 otf color. Carnations are equal to the 

 demands. Sweet peas are coming in more 

 plentifully, but move slowly. Jonquils 

 have made their appearance in the mar- 

 kets. Violets are seen in large quanti- 

 ties; even the street fakers have them in 

 large bunches, with prices to suit all. 

 There are now on the market many 

 azaleas which could not be gotten on the 

 market for Christmas. They move slowly. 



Variotii Notes. 



Kobert Carl, one of the assistants at 

 the Florists' Exchange, has been suffer- 

 ing with what was thought to be blood 

 poisoning. The origin of the trouble was 

 proved to be a piece of glass one inch 

 square, which had been in his hand for 

 five years and was caused by falling 

 through a greenhouse at T. Vincent 's, on 

 Baltimore street. The glass was located 

 by the use of X-rays. 



The Park Board, after carefully con- 

 sidering the wants of the various public 

 parks and squares in the city, has finally 

 adopted a schedule of such improvements 

 as it proposes making this year. The
