The Market. 



Business has been good since Christ- 

 mas. Many receptions, parties and balls 

 used up quantities of flowers. New 

 Year's week saw all kinds of weather — 

 rain, frost, hail and sunshine. The snow 

 on the mountains extends far down the 

 sides and gives a decidedly cool feeling 

 to the atmosphere, even when the sun is 

 shining. 



Flowers are back to normal prices, 

 first-class carnations selling for $1 a 

 dozen. Valley and orchids are plentiful, 

 with a good call for both. There has 

 been a good shipping trade. 



Various Notes. 



On account of the rain, which fell 

 heavily for thirty-six hours previously 

 and until 8 o 'clock New Year 's morn- 

 ing, the rose tournament at Pasadena 

 was not as much of a success as usual, a 

 Kood many entries being withdrawn, but 

 what there was was fine. This was the 

 twenty-first annual event of the kind, 

 'ind in all these years there have been 

 "Illy two rainy New Year's days before 

 "ii.s. AH of the entries were elaborately 

 'li'corated with fresh flowers, poinsettias, 

 'loiigainvilleas, roses, carnations, mar- 

 unerites, marigolds, etc. Not an artificial 

 •lower was allowed. All of the schools 

 'i<id beautiful allegorical floats. 



The night of January 5 was the cold- 

 ''^t of the season, many oranges and 

 liinons suffering at Riverside, Redlands 

 •■'■nd elsewhere in the "frostless belt." 

 'or the first time in sixteen years frost 

 ^^:is felt at Catalina Island.' 



^lany of the stores in Los Angeles 

 ^ <^re busy on ^Monday, January 3, with 

 '■''signs for the funeral of a prominent 

 'irizen. Violets were used in profusion 

 ' ' nearly all cases. At The Angelus two 

 1' irtieularly handsome pieces were seen —
