BALTIMORE. 



The Market. 



We are in the midst of another 

 Christmas, and although it is rather 

 early to give a complete summary of 

 the business done in the stores and 

 markets, observations made during the 

 last two days and the latest accounts 

 at hand show that an immense busi- 

 ness was done in both cut flowers and 

 potted plants. Cemetery stock of all 

 kinds was hard to move and all,. who 

 handled that kind of stock had a good 

 deal of it left on their hands. Im- 

 mortelles were exceedingly hard to 

 move, especially those sold by the 

 bunch. The heavy snow which has cov- 

 ered the ground for the last two weeks 

 made it difficult for the public to visit 

 the cemeteries and they just stayed at 

 home. 



Natural blooms were scarce. This is 

 expected for some days before the holi- 

 days, many growers holding on till the 

 last moment, in the expectation of bet- 

 ter prices. Carnations were exceeding- 

 ly scarce; there were not one-tenth 

 enough to go around, and they brought 

 from 7 cents to 9 cents each, wholesale. 

 Roses were a little more plentiful and 

 brought from 6 cents to 8 cents each, 

 wholesale. 



Pot plants were in heavy demand, 

 especially ferns, poinsettias and cycla- 

 mens, of which there were heavy ship- 

 ments. There was an oversupply of 

 holly and mistletoe. The finest kind 

 could be had for $2 to $3 per case, or 

 a loose load for $3 to $6. Christmas 

 trees were a glut and thousands were 

 hauled to the dump. 



Various Notes. 



The Baltimore Florists' Exchange did 

 a business that considerably exceeded 

 in volume that of any preceding Christ- 

 mas. Manager J. J. Perry had an extra 

 force of efficient nelp and the trans- 

 actions of the day were smoothly and 

 expeditiously forwarded, including con- 

 siderable shipments to out-of-town cus- 

 tomers. By the closing hour nearly 

 everything was cleaned up. Q. 



Beaver, Pa. — T. M. Fitzgerald reports 

 Christmas business this year the best 

 ever. White carnations were scarce, 

 on account of dark weather, but for the 

 same reason he had a fine supply of 

 chrysanthemums, white and yellow 

 Jones, that helped out wonderfully. He 

 has set up an additional twenty-five 

 horse-power boiler for a reserve.
