ST. LOUIS. 



The Market 



Business so far this month has not 

 been any too good. The weather last 

 week was bad under foot, and this had a 

 good deal to do with slow trade. With 

 the holidays close at hand, the trade is 

 bound to pick up greatly, with all kinds 

 of work. A good deal of funeral work 

 was reported for last week, but ontside 

 of this, nothing much was made up. 

 Most of us are now busy making up 

 holiday goods. Our wholesalers have had 

 plenty of everything, but most of them 

 think -.that stock of all kinds will be 

 scarce for Christmas and prices high, 



California violets have been scarce and 

 are up to $1 per hundred for the best. 

 Roses and carnations have been enough 

 for the demand, at no advance in price. 

 Paper Whites and Eomans are coming 

 in fine and will be in plenty. Shipping 

 trade is looking up and quite a lot of 

 orders have been placed for Christmas. 

 In greens, asparagus and smilax are in 

 good demand. 



Qub Meeting. 



The Florists' Club held its regular 

 monthly meeting Thursday afternoon, 

 December 9, in Odd Fellows' building. 

 The meeting was again largely attended, 

 there being thirty-one members present. 

 There was also a nice exhibition of car- 

 nation' blooms staged. The Chicago Car- 

 nation Co., Joliet, HI., sent Sangamo, 

 Mary Tolman and Conquest. The .Miami 

 Floral Co., Dayton, O., sent a vase of 

 Miami Queen. The Charles Knopf Flo- 

 ral Co., Richmond, Ind., staged a vase 

 of the fine new pink. Admiration. 



President George B. Windier and all 

 the other officers were present. G. M. 

 Grossart, of Belleville, was elected to 

 membership by a full vote, and W. A. 

 •RoWe, grower at Kirkwood, made appli- 

 cation for membership. The chair ap- 

 pointed" "J. F. Ammann, F. J. Fillmore 

 and E, W. Guy as judges on the carna- 

 tions staged. A recess was taken, after 

 which the judges made the following re- 

 port: Admiration, an improved pink 

 shade on Enchantress; Miami Queen, fine 

 dark pink, an improvement on Lawson; 

 Sangamo, fine medium pink color, stem
