is attributed to the weather conditions. 

 Valley and orchids are equal to demand. 

 Local violets are still scaijce. The vio- 

 let venders did an enormous business 

 Christmas. As their licenses are issued 

 quarterly, several failed to renew Jan- 

 uary 1. In dull months they migrate 

 to other sections. This is one of the 

 problems the florist has to contend 

 with. Jonquils are to be had in lim- 

 ited quantities, the first harbinger of 

 springtime. 



Various Notes. 



S. Lubliner is in Chicago for a short 

 stay, combining business with pleasure. 



Martin & Forbes Co. decorated for 

 the Corbett ball New Year's eve at the 

 Masonic Temple. It was the most ex- 

 tensive decoration that has been done 

 in this city for many years. The entire 

 hall was canopied with fir boughs. 

 Poinsettias and red carnations were 

 used in profusion. E. E. C.

The Market. 



Trade following the Christmas rush 

 has been good and an additional spurt 

 New Year's cleaned up most of the 

 stock of cut flowers, while pot plants 

 are none too plentiful. The heavy cut 

 of carnations continues, but the ship- 

 ping trade is taking the surplus and the 

 local supply is hardly equal to the de- 

 mand, growers being pushed to fill or- 

 ders. Consequently prices are firm. 

 The supply of roses remains moderate 

 and the demand for all grades is good. 

 A few poinsettias were left over from 

 Christmas, but have been disposed of 

 advantageously this week. Local vio- 

 lets are hardly procurable, but the 

 California varieties are here in abun- 

 dance. There is good sale for bulbous 

 stock. Paper Whites and Bomana are 

 selling well and the few Trumpet Ma- 

 jors offered are quickly snapped up. 

 Valley is scarce, while sweet peas are 

 not in much demand. The market is 

 short of orchids and freesias are also 

 scarce. The supply of plumosus is, as 

 usual, inadequate. Several large dec- 

 orations have made heavy demands on 

 the supply of huckleberry. 



Various Notes. 



Jack Haight, who has been fore- 

 man at the nursery of the Burdett Co. 

 a number of years, is now in business 

 for himself at Harvard avenue, north. 



A. E. Buxton has taken charge of 

 the plant of Rosaia Bros., at Thomas. 



The house of Mrs. Hafferty, Henry 

 Morgan's mother, at Brighton, was de- 

 stroyed by fire December 28. A de-
