The Market. 



The continued scarcity has not let up 

 in the least and prices have been high 

 since the holidays. Never before has 

 this been so noticeable at this time of 

 the year. There are no short roses to 

 speak of, and only a few of the long 

 ones. Beauties have been short and 

 high in price. Bulbous stock is none 

 too plentiful and has been held at 3 

 cents and 4 cents. Carnations are held 

 at 4 cents to 6 cents and are scarce, 



some days only a few bunches being 

 received at the commission house. Mc- 

 Kinley day does not promise to be such 

 a big aifair this year, as the stock does 

 not show any indication of being any 

 larger by that time. Eomans and nar- 

 cissi have sold well, though in other 

 years they have gone to waste by the 

 hundreds at this time of the year. 



Various Notes. 



A few days ago, when we had one of 

 the cold snaps, the fireman at L. H. 

 Neubeck 's fell asleep. When he awoke, 



he found that the fires were low and, 

 in his efforts to save the stock, he fired 

 up strongly and raised the temperature 

 to about 80 degrees, which did much 

 damage. Mr. Neubeck estimates the 

 loss at about $400 to $500. Fortunately, 

 the Christmas and holiday stock had 

 been disposed of, which meant much. 



The scarcity of stock has made it 

 necessary for each buyer to go to the 

 commission house and get his stock. 

 This brought a big number out each 

 morning and some lively times have fol- 

 lowed. One morning Mr. Kramer had 

 the misfortune to strike his nose against 

 the sharp end of a counter and the re- 

 sult was a broken nose. It was all 

 done in fun and frolic, but the injury 

 is serious, nevertheless. 



Miss Hazel Adams, the bright young 

 bookkeeper for Miss Bebstock, has 

 taken a few days to rest and is spend- 

 ing the time in Rochester. 



The bowling parties since the holi- 

 days have been much enjoyed and an 

 invitation has been accepted from the 

 Eochester boys to go down and have a 

 visit and a friendly game. The same 

 courtesy is to be returned later by our 

 boys. The boys have been bowling a 

 good game, as the following averages, 

 including all games bowled to date, will 

 show: Cloudsley, 152; Keitch, 127; 

 Neubeck, 157; Sandiford, 162; Streit, 

 131; Savage, 117; Taylor, 127; Grever, 

 122; Austin, 114; Taylor, 101; Kasting, 

 155. 



Oliver Scott has been laid up for a* 

 few days with the grip. E. A. S. 



Somersworth, N. H.— G. S. Ramsburg 

 was recently confined to his home for a 

 while bv illness.
