The Market. 



Business has been excellent since last 

 report. There seems to be plenty of 

 cut flowers, with the possible exception 

 of carnations. Boses and mums are fine. 

 Green goods are not any too plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Eoyston & Fenton were so unfor- 

 tunate as to be troubled with a leaky 

 boiler November 12, during the coldest 

 spell we have had this fall. The boiler 

 leaked in two different places. They 

 managed to stop the leaks temporarily 

 by putting bran and malt sprouts into 

 the boiler. The next morning the ther- 

 mometers registered 16 degrees out- 

 doors, but they kept their houses around 

 50 degrees. They waited for a favor- 

 able day and on Friday, November 17, 

 they pulled the old boiler out and put 

 in a new one, and had steam going by 

 10 o'clock at night. 



Louis Fritsch has his new house 

 about completed. He says business is 

 good with him. 



Austin Wallace has his carnations in 

 condition. He carried over a half bench 

 of carnations and they are doing fairly 

 well. He finds a ready sale for his 

 smilax. 



John H. Brockmann, representing 

 Arthur T. Boddington, New York city, 

 called on' the trade last week.

The cut flower trade is fair, with the 

 supply of flowers good. Mums are 

 shortening up a little. Funeral work 

 has been heavy of late. Carnations are 

 coming into the market of good qual- 

 ity; these retail at 50 cents and 60 

 cents per dozen. Boses retul at $1 and 

 $1.50 per dozen; mums at $2 to $3 per 

 dozen. Paper Whites are now making 

 their appearance, and retail at 50 cents 

 per dozen. Bouvardia of nice quality is 

 seen; it retails at 50 cents per dozen. 

 Lilies sell at $2 per dozen. Candytuft 

 helps out a lot. 



Plants sell well at fair prices. 



Nice window displays are seen these 

 days in all of the uptown stores. 



Stevia will be ready in a week or so.
