WASHINGTON. 



The Market. 



The near-zero weather of the last 

 week has acted as a two-edged sword 

 in the florists' trade of Washington. 

 It has prevented an oversupply of stock 

 and has kept prices up, but, on the 

 other hand, it has checked trade to 

 some extent; ice and snow interfere 

 with deliveries, and the cold has caused 

 considerable loss of stock in transit, 

 and even in local stores and green- 

 houses. As a rule local dealers would 

 prefer medium cold weather with mod- 

 erate prices. 



The social season is now in full swing 

 here and there is much decorating go- 

 ing on. Good stock is demanded for 

 these functions. Many orchids are be- 

 ing used. Eoses are rather scarce and 

 bringing good prices. Killarneys are 

 among the best. These and valley and 

 lilies are moving well. Carnations are 

 more plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



The annual meeting of the stock- 

 holders of the Washington Florists' Ex- 

 change was held January 9. Some 

 twenty were present. Regular routine 

 business was transacted, including the 

 reading of the officers' annual reports. 

 W. Marche was elected president of 

 the organization for the year 1912, 

 succeeding G. Milton Thomas. The 

 other officers were reelected as follows: 

 Vice-president, Theodore Diedrich; sec- 

 retary, Adolph Bowdler; treasurer, John 

 Bobertson. Albert Schnell continues as 

 manager. He has practically recovered 

 from the attack of blood poisoning from 

 which he suffered, following a rose 

 thorn prick several weeks ago. His 

 arm is now out of the sling and in 

 usable condition. Mr. Schnell reports 

 receiving a shipment of 2,000 carna- 

 tions, the flowers being frozen into a 

 solid mass of ice. A lot of callas also 

 received by this firm was badly frozen. 



Z. D. Blackistone 's small downtown 

 greenhouse, back of his store, was put 

 out of commission by the cold the other 

 night. The fire failed and a quantity 

 of decorative plants was frozen. The 

 loss did not interfere with Blackistone 's 

 iob en the President 's dinner to the
