The Market 



Business is reported as far from satis- 

 factory, although early commencements 

 brought in a little extra Avork, The up- 

 town florists have had a few small wed- 

 dings and receptions, but all say the bulk 

 of the business is in funeral orders. Of 

 course, the greenhouse men are busy now 

 that the warm weather has set in, but 

 they have their troubles, as everybody 

 wants his work done first. However, it 

 will be well into June before they will 

 be through with the rush. The whole- 

 salers have been busy packing away stock 

 left over at the end of each day, and 

 say that stock of all kinds is in abun- 

 dance. Peonies and cape jasmines have 

 now reached the market and are at pres- 

 ent commanding top prices, but will soon 

 come down to a level with carnations and 

 roses, which are most plentiful. The 

 stock in all these is of excellent quality. 

 Fancy carnations are as low as 2 cents 

 and roses 5 to 6 cents. Extra fancy long 

 Beauties were quoted as low as $2 per 

 dozen Saturday. 



There are plenty of lilies in both callas 

 and Harrisii, and when graded they bring 

 $6, $8 and $10 per hundred. Peonies in 

 white, pink and red are selling well at 

 $3 and $4 per hundred and long, fancy 

 cape jasmine goes at $1.50 per hundred. 

 There is some extra fine lily of the val- 

 ley in the market daily. The report is 

 that all outdoor flowers will be scarce 

 for Decoration day. 



Club Meeting. 



The Florists' Club held its regular 

 monthly meeting Thursday, May 12, in 

 Odu Fellows' building. When President 

 Windier opened the meeting, only fifteen 

 members were in attendance, including all 

 the oflBcers, as the day was fine and most 

 of the members were busy with the plant- 

 ing. The president stated that all the
