The Market. 



Things have loosened up and stock is 

 more plentiful than it has been for 

 some little while, and there is plenty 

 of everything, with perhaps the excep- 

 tion of red roses. Freesias also are a 

 little scarce. Daflfodils are in good sup- 

 ply and sell well. Lilacs are now on 

 the market. Richmond roses and En- 

 chantress carnations are the best sell- 

 ers. 



This week started off with the worst 

 blizzard so far this winter, and it is 

 likely that the trade will experience 

 difficulties for a couple of days in get- 

 ting stock from outside points and in 

 filling out-of-town orders on account 

 of the snow blockades on the railroads. 



Various Notes. 



At the St. Charles hotel Thursday 

 evening, February 2, J. S. Simmons ten- 

 dered the members of his staff a com- 

 plimentary dinner, after which the 

 party adjourned to the Princess the- 

 ater to see "Sweet Sixteen." During 

 the course of the evening Mr. Simmons 

 was made the recipient of a handsome 

 reading table. 



J. ll. Dunlop is busy clearing his 

 houses and preparing for Easter. Busi- 

 ness at his store, on Yonge street, has 

 been excellent. Orders fbr design work 

 and receptions have been plentiful. 



Mrs. Timothy Eaton recently held a 

 large reception at her magnificent home 

 on Lowther avenue. J. S. Simmons had 

 charge of the extensive floral decora- 

 tions. 



Samuel Norman, of J. H. Dunlop 's 

 staff, was recently married. Mr. Nor- 

 man and his bride spent a pleasant 

 honeymoon in New York. 



Charles E. Lewis reports a good 

 trade in design work and orders for 

 receptions, etc. 



Grobba & Wandrey, of Mimico, are
