BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



The market during last week was of a 

 steady nature, everyone being kept busy 

 but nobody unduly exerting himself. The 

 week opened with an oversupply of every- 

 thing. The stock of white carnations, 

 however, shortened up on Friday and 

 Saturday, and few were to be had at any 

 price. This was caused by everyone 

 celebrating Mother's day, May 9. The 

 observance of the day was general, and 

 Baltimore localized the celebration in a 

 manner that equaled that of any other 

 city. J. Bolgiano & Son distributed 

 over 3,500 white Enchantress to their 

 patrons. The market people did a land 

 office business in white carnations, and 

 were asking 10 cents each for large 

 varieties. 



Roses were plentiful, especially pink 

 and shorter grades of red and white. 

 Lily of the valley has arrived in enor- 

 mous quantities, and every stand has 

 large trays full of exceptionally fine val- 

 ley. The Exchange is receiving heavy 

 shipments of lilies, which are hard to 

 move. A few gladioli have made their 

 appearance, and are eagerly sought after. 



Hilpert & Hammen have been granted 

 a permit to build a greenhouse on the 

 Belair road, near Erdman avenue. Part 

 of the building will be in the city and 

 part in the county. It will be heated by 

 steam. The cost will be about $1,000. 



WASHINGTON. 



The Washington Board of Trade and 

 the Chamber of Commerce, the two busi- 

 ness organizations which are booming 

 industrial "Washington, combined May 7 

 in giving a banquet at which the guest 

 of honor was President Taft. That the 

 affair was flowery in its nature may be 

 judged by the fact that J. H. Small is 

 president of the Board of Trade and 

 Wm. F. Gude is president of the Cham- 

 ber of Commerce. 



' Fulton, Ia. — Messrs. Still and Mc- 

 Kee, of Morrison, will locate a green- 

 house at this place, on the south side.
