. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. igo4. The American Florist. 47 A serious fire was narrowly averted last Saturday in the Atlas block, in which there are about a dozen florists' stores. The fire partially destroyed several cases of moss in the warehouse of the E. F. Winterson Company. Peter Reinberg has been confined to his bed by sickness. He was able to be out the last days of the week. Daniel Branch is in Minneapolis, Minn , where he was called on account of his mother's illness. John Zeck, who was formerly with ]. A. Budlong, has taken a position with E. C. Amling. Visitors this week were W. Bertermann, of Indianapolis, Ind.; R. Will, of Minne- apolis, Minn.; Robert King, of the King Construction Company, Toronto; J. W. Lyon, of Belvidere, 111.; J. F. Ammann, of Edwardsville, 111.; A. Jablonsky, of Wells- ton, Mo.; E. G. Hill, of Richmond Ind. New York. The cut flower market continues about as last reported. Carnations and roses are holding up more steadily than for several weeks, American Beauty leading, but there is not the usual winter anima- tion and the satisfactory marketing of some things is due more to lightness of supply than to seasonable demand. Violets retain their low prices as hereto- fore. A season of temperate weather would help the violet crop greatly in its sale and, no doubt, when that comes the growers will have a more comfortable experience. All bulbous stock, including fine Golden Spur narcissi, isoverplentiful, selling being devoid of any hopeful feat- ures. Lily of the valley shares in the depression although of excellent quality, as a rule. Lilacs have never been so good nor so plentiful here at this season as at present. The dinner of the New York Florists' Club will be held Saturday, February 20, at 7:30 p. m., at the St. Denis hotel. A corps of entertainers has been engaged and every effort is being made by the efficient committee to insure an enjoyable evening. Victor S. Dorval, of Woods
