This puts the store man in a bad light, 

 as it is hard to make a customer be- 

 lieve that he does not regulate the 

 prices. 



As to demand in cut flowers, there 

 did not seem to be much choice, as 

 everything went regardless of the high 

 prices. Fancy roses brought from $'ii 

 to $6 *per dozen, carnations $1.50 t(J 

 $2.50 per dozen. Violets were in heavy 

 demand this year, bringing $3 and $4 

 per dozen. There were quantities of 

 fancy Beauties at from $18 to $30 per 

 dozen, and Paper "Whites, hyacinths, 

 stevia, sweet peas, valley, orchids, poin- 

 settias and lilacs were to be had in 

 large numbers and found ready sale. 



The demand for corsages was quite 

 noticeable this year and called for quan- 

 tities of violets, valley, orchids, lilacs, 

 sweet peas and roses. In pot plants, 

 azaleas had the lead and brought the 

 best prices. While poinsettias are the 

 real Christmas flower, they cannot touch 

 the azalea. It appears as if the Lor- 

 raine begonias are a thing of the past, 

 as most people know their keeping qual- 

 ities and are shy of them. Cyclamens 

 still find ready demand, as do primroses, 

 hyacinths and numerous other plants. 



The Flower Market was not up to its 

 usual standard this Christmas. There 

 was plenty of green goods to be had 

 there, but good blooming plants were 

 scarce and the general stock was poor. 



In holly and greens the trade was 

 good, and as usual the prices at the 

 seed stores increased as the days went 

 by and stock became more scarce. 



Various Notes. 



E. A. Nelson says that his Christmas 

 trade was satisfactory, as he had all 

 he could handle. Mr. Nelson had a 

 large variety of blooming plants this 

 year and reports excellent sale for them. 

 He had a fine lot of Lorraines, also the 

 new Glory of Cincinnati. 



Sidney Smith says he has had a fine 

 year with his chickens, as well as in the 

 florist business. 



Ollie Hobbs, of C. M. Hobbs & Sons, 

 of Bridgeport Nurseries, is carrying an 

 air of responsibility these days. The 

 cause of all this is a new nine-pound 

 boy. 



Mrs. Elder, mother of Glen Elder of 

 Hartje & Elder, passed away December 

 23. She had been ill with pneumonia 

 for about one week. 



Bertermann Bros, enjoyed their usual 

 fine business and they report sales in
