Hudson. The new store is a success. 

 The Hoffmeir Flower Shop, across the 

 •way, is handsomely fitted up and doing 

 -:& big business in dinner decorations. 

 Mrs. Hoffmeir has charge of the office. 

 The Forster-Mansfield Mfg. Co. has some 

 unique decorative novelty work there, 

 including the ice-box and window 

 arches. 



Menghara & Westwood are already 

 nicely settled in their new store at 

 Broadway and Eighty-fifth street and 

 are well pleased with the change from 

 moisy Columbus avenue. 



The Smart Set Floral Co. has a beau- 

 rtifuUy lighted store and is doing an ex- 

 cellent business. Saturday, February 12, 

 they had a funeral order amounting to 

 ■over $800, including twelve large pieces 

 and a pall of valley and orchids. 



M. A. Bowe had his greatest wedding 

 ■deooration of the season last week, which 

 Tthe city papers described in detail. It 

 ■was a carte blanche affair, 



H. E. Froment's Killarney is Tunning 

 full time. That enormous house of L. 

 B, Coddington 's, at Summit, N. J,, grows 

 enough of them to provide a bouton- 

 niere daily for every Irishman in New 

 York, including the policemen. 



The Kervan Co. and B. Rosens handle 

 great quantities of wild smilax weekly. 

 Business has been excellent with all the 

 green goods men, 



Kessler Bros,, the plantsmen, laid in 

 a fine stock of blooming plants for Val- 

 entine's day and were about cleaned out 

 Saturday evening. Their loaning of 

 palms to the florists in the big city with- 

 out greenhouse conveniences has become 

 their specialty. They also have a unique 

 exhibit of armadillo baskets on sale. 



Bowfiii£. 



Bowling continues weekly at Astoria 

 and Flatbush, New York will get to- 

 gether a representation of some kind 

 after Easter to make its debut at 

 Rochester in August. 



Flatbush and Astoria had a dinner 

 together and bowled a match game 

 Thursday, February 10, Either of these 

 teams can beat New York's score at 

 Pittsburg, At Astoria Tuesday, Febru- 

 ary 8, the scores were:

DENVER. 



The Market 



The weather has been fair and trade 

 good, especially preceding Lent. There 

 is a scarcity of stock and flowers of all 

 kinds are bringing good prices. Boses 

 have been particularly scarce and orders 

 for these have to be placed in advance, 

 as everything in this line is bought up 

 as soon as it reaches the wholesale 

 house. Carnations are in about the 

 same state, for supply is hardly equal to 

 the demand. American Beauty also is 

 shy and violets have been scarce, but 

 the increased sunlight of the last week 

 is having its effect. Bulbous stock is 

 coming in, but hardly at its best, daffo- 

 dils and tulips being the most plentiful. 

 All kinds of green goods have been and 

 are scarce, especially smilax and plu- 

 mosus.
