BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



At last ii ri'ul toiu'h of winter is 

 on us, and the tluTnioinctcr is llirtinjf 

 with the zero itoint. A l>liz/.ard came 

 down on us January 5, with u heavy 

 snow and hig:h winds, and continued 

 low temperatures prevail. Trade still 

 is holding; its own. Tliere has liceii a 

 great deal of funeral work and this 

 has kept everybody hustling. 



Eoscs have been a little off crop 

 lately and the continued cloudy weather 

 has made stock extremely soft. Carna- 

 tions are coming in niccdy, but the de- 

 mand more tium equals the supjily, espe- 

 cially in white, which has been in heavy 

 request for work. Sweet peas are not 

 any too plentiful and the demand is 

 good. 



The sale for potted plants has been 

 quite heavy and a nice lot of plants is 

 moved right along. Azaleas, cyclamens 

 and primroses are the favorites at jires- 

 ent. There is also a good call for ferns, 

 in which the Bostons, I'iersoni and 

 Whitman! take the lead, (ireens have 

 been a little scarce for the last few 

 weeks, and it is hard to get enough to 

 go around. 



Various Notes. 



}{. Yini-eiit. .Ir., i^ Sons Co., of ^Vhitc 

 Marsh. Md., is contcmiiiating tlie erec- 

 tion of a modern liuiidiiig for the stor- 

 ing of dahlia and canna roots. It will 

 be built so as to make it possible to 

 drive t(>ams tiirougli the center. The 

 company lias had difhculty in finding 

 space to store 1 he enormous (piantities of 

 bulbs and roots. The building will be 

 00x300 feet, witli a glass roof. The 

 concern also will erect several new 

 greenhouses. About forty acres of 

 cannas will be planted next season. 

 The demand has been excei)tionair'y 

 heavy this fall. K. A. Vincent has 

 been suffering from an attack of the 

 grii>, but was well enough to go to 

 Detroit this week. 



.lames Hoone, assistant superintend- 

 ent of jiarks, was ])resented with a 

 sterling silver fruit dish by the ]\Iary- 

 land State Horticultural Society, as a 

 token of appreciation of the way the 

 ])laiis were laid for the recent horticul- 

 tural show held in the Fifth Regiment 

 armory. Q- 



New Hamburg, N. Y. — Henry Oster- 

 houilt, suiH'rintendent for AV. P. Clyde, 

 speaks highly of Carnation Princess 

 Charming, both for yiebl and beauty. 

 Pountiful is still the best white here. 

 A house of 000 Enchantress produced 

 a cut of 1,000 blooms during Decem- 

 ber, which is believed to be a record.
