The Weekly Florists' Review.

ONONNATL 



The Market 



Business is showing signs of coming 

 to life again, and we are mighty glad to 

 welcome it back. Stock is selling out 

 clean now, and prices are showing an 

 inclination to get somewhere near where 

 they ought to be. Good stock is now 

 bringing a good price, and even the 

 poorer grades are selling out well. There 

 has been a decided shortening in the 

 supply, also. Whether this is caused al- 

 together by the growers holding back 

 stock for Decoration day is hard to state, 

 but it would look as if the dark weather 

 we have been having might have a great 

 deal to do with it. 



Unless we have some good, bright and 

 warm weather from now on, there is go- 

 ing to be a shortage in the peony supply 

 for Decoration day. Under present 

 weather conditions, they are not moving 

 at all. This would be a great disap- 

 pointment to many growers in this lo- 

 cality, as they always count on good re- 

 turns at this time. 



The arrival of southern ferns in. this 

 market has eased the green goods situa- 

 tion a great deal. There is always a big 

 demand for this article when it first ar- 

 rives, and the wholesale houses are kept 

 busy taking care of it. Other classes of 

 greens are selling well. 



Variottf Notes. 



Joseph Linfoot is bringing in some of 

 the best sweet peas seen in this market. 

 They are of the latest varieties, and of 

 the most popular colors. 



J. A. Peterson is preparing for a busi- 

 ness trip that will keep him on the road 

 for some time. 



Nick Weber is spending a few days 

 visiting relatives in Louisville, Ky. 



Gus Adams, of Grand Rapids, Mich., 

 was a caller. C. J. Ohmee. 



George & Allan want $5,694.57 dam- 

 ages from the city as a result of the 

 breaking of the water main on Madison 

 road, near Oakley avenue, December 6, 

 1908. It is alleged that on account of 

 that break the water was turned off and 

 their supply was stopped, thus prevent- 

 ing them from heating their greenhouses. 

 These greenhouses were filled with roses 

 and chrysanthemums for the Christmas 

 market, and thousands of these and other 

 plants were frozen. The total value of 

 the destroyed plants is itemized at 

 $5,694.57, for which they sue. 



Adam Miller, of Clifton, is at the 

 head of a committee which has been ap- 

 pointed by the Unemployed Protective 

 Association to observe Memorial day by 

 decorating the graves of the unknown 

 dead. Several florists have consented to 

 donate flowers for this purpose, and the 

 schools and churches will be asked to 

 help with floral contributions. 



Meriden, Conn. — C. W. Blatchley con- 

 structed two elaborate Decoration day 

 designs for Jesse Sands, of this city. 

 One of the designs was to be placed at 

 the base of the soldiers' monument.
