NEW BEDFOBD. 



The Market. 



Trade last week was good. Flowers 

 remain scarce as yet. Carnations are 

 none too plentiful; they retail at 60 

 cents and 75 cents per dozen. Boses 

 of good quality retail at $1.50 and $2 

 per dozen; these are daily becoming 

 scarcer as the holidays approach. Paper 

 White narcissi retail at 50 cents per 

 dozen, but will bring higher prices for 

 the Christmas trade. Violets sell quite 

 well at $1.50 per hundred blooms, but 

 they will probably be $2.50 per hun- 

 dred for Christmas. Snapdragons bring 

 75 cents per dozen. 



Funeral work has been good of late 

 and this calls for large quantities of 

 flowers. Stevia and candytuft also help 

 out. All the uptown stores are well 

 stocked with fine flowering plants, and 

 by the time this is read they will have 

 disposed of most of them. 



There is a good demand reported for 

 Christmas wreaths of princess pine, 

 laurel, hemlock and other evergrefens. 

 Christinas tr^jes are selling . fairly well. 

 This year, ofl'account of thi deep snows 

 in the woods, it has been difficult to 

 obtain the evergreens; princess and 

 ground pine are all covered up and have 

 become exceedingly scarce. 

 Various Notes. 



S. S. Peckham has some fine cycla- 

 mens and primroses for the holidays. 



Peter Murray has a fine lot of plants 

 for Christmas. 



E. H. Woodhouse has some elegant 

 cyclamens and begonias in the ruby and 

 pink sorts. He will have a few mums 

 for the holidays. 



Wm. P. Peirce's place is well stocked 

 with flowering plants. Some nice Fire- 

 fly azaleas were seen there.
