The Market. 



Christmas, 1910, was all that could be 

 desired in a business way, and some of 

 the florists say that it went ahead of 

 last Christmas. Plant trade had the 

 run, although there was a good demand 

 for cut flowers, which could not be had 

 in quantities to go around. Since 

 Christmas, the market has been steady, 

 but nothing rushing, as New Year's 

 trade is not nearly so large as Christ- 

 mas; still, quite a good business was 

 reported by the stores, where cut 

 flowers sold well, but at prices not 

 nearly as high. 



The weather was just the opposite of 

 that of a week ago, and it was warm 

 as a spring day, which made transient 

 trade good. It also made good business 

 for cemetery florists, who a week ago 

 werrf all snowed in, with the tempera- 

 ture around zero. 



New Year's evolved the anticipated 

 volume of business and held its repu- 

 tation as a good Saturday. Up to Fri- 

 day morning there was no sign of the 

 holiday celebration, but with mild, 

 sunny weather and safe deliveries, the 

 plantsmen were busy, and sold out 

 everything good that had been left 

 over from Christmas. Many handsome 

 combination plant baskets of various 

 flowers were utilized as New Year 

 greetings. Cut flowers were more plen- 

 tiful and the prices dropped accord- 

 ingly, with a consequent encouraging 

 demand.
