was deeply covered with snow, which 

 made it difficult for delivering. The 

 thermometer was down to 15 degrees and 

 part of the time about zero. This re- 

 quired a great deal of covering to keep 

 plants from freezing. The result was 

 that the bulk of the stock sold had to 

 be delivered Christmas day, and in some 

 places it took all day to finish up. One 

 tiorist was heard to say he would give 

 $50 if he had one more large wagon that 

 was heated, to get his orders out. By the 

 looks of his orders he was badly snowed 

 iinder. 



In regard to stock, there were roses 

 ■enough to meet the demand, but car- 



nations were scarce and sold at $1 to 

 $1.50 per dozen. Plants in pots took 

 the lead. Begonias were first; they sold 

 readily at from $1.50 to $10 each. Next 

 came poinsettias in pans and baskets; 

 few calls were made for them cut. There 

 was a fair call for azaleas, but the sup- 

 ply was poor, few being in full bloom. 

 They were hard to force into bloom, as 

 most of them arrived late from Belgium. 

 American Beauties sold well at a fancy 

 price, the supply being rather short. 

 Christmas trees sold well at 25 cents 

 higher than last year, as the supply was 

 short. Green goods sold so weU the 

 prices jumped up one-thifd by December 



24. Holly was plentiful at prices the 

 same as last year. Wild smilax was 

 plentiful, in cold storage. There was a 

 good demand for violets. The call for 

 hyacinths was not so brisk; the supply 

 equaled the demand. Narcissi sold well. 



Various Notes. 



Arthur Newell reports business fine. 



D. Freudenthal says business was bet- 

 ter than last year. Sales in cut flowers 

 were about the same as potted plants. 

 He is well satisfied. 



B. S. Brown & Son report business 

 extra fine. Plants went beet and quite 

 a lot of funeral work was mixed in with
