FINE TERNS 



Ready For Immediate

We have an exceptionally fine and large stock of Ferns in the following varieties— first-class plants of exceedingly 

 good value — plants that will please the most critical buyers, both in regard to quality and value.

 this type— never showing a Boston frond : has not reverted in the

Nepbrolepis SleBantlsslina Coxnpaota. This bears the

 is a dwarf, compact plant, especially fine in the small sizes. Fine

NEW BEDFORD. 



The Market. 



Trade conditions are good, with flow- 

 ers scarce. Carnations are at times diffi- 

 cult to obtain. They are now retailing 

 at 60 cents to 75 cents per dozen. 

 Eoses are unusually scarce. Some of 

 the Boston wholesalers refused to take 

 orders for them last week. They are 

 retailing at $2 per dozen. Paper Whites 

 are quite plentiful and retail at 50 

 cents per dozen. Snapdragons go at 

 75 cents and $1 per dozen, and single 

 Golden Spur narcissi at 75 cents per 

 dozen; tulips, 60 cents per dozen, and 

 lilies, $2.50 per dozen. Freesias have 

 now made their appearance. Outside 

 of funeral work they are not used to 

 any great extent. Funeral work has 

 been good, calling for immense quan- 

 tities of flowers. 



We have had a great deal of cloudy 

 weather, which has not helped the 

 flowers any in blooming. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Rositskj', foreman for William 

 P. Peirce, on Union street, is again 

 back in the store after being sick. He 

 is handling some nice violets, which 

 retail at $1 per hundred. 



E. H. Woodhouse has some elegant 

 Freesia Purity in bloom. 



E. Y. Peirce reports business as fine. 



S. S. Peckham is bringing in some 

 nice primroses. 



William H. Davenport has a full line 

 of birds and. supplies, which sell well.

William Honeysett, of the Massas- 

 sauga Gardens, says the most valuable 

 asset just now on the premises is 

 natural gas, new wells being discovered 

 right along. He has a house of violets 

 that are hard to beat in quality. Large 

 blocks of flowering plants are raised 

 for the country estate, which necessi- 

 tates considerable planning ahead. 



Vern Schluraff expects to occupy a 

 downtown store in the early future, 

 his agreement to confine himself to the 

 wholesale end of the business being 

 about to expire. The Schluraffs and 

 Niemeyers were the first retailers to 

 open stores downtown. 



William McCarthy says the best in- 

 vestment he has made of late was for 

 the auto delivery wagon. Its useful- 

 ness was particularly noticeable around 

 the holidays. M.
