The extremely dull and gloomy win- ter weather continued last week, with zero weather nearly every night. A snow storm, accompanied with terrific wind, Sunday, January 18, tied up rail- roads for from five to eleven hours and street railways and suburban lines until late the following day. Towards the end of last week the weather moderated somewhat, but was still stormy. The prices on cut stock suffered in consequence. Carnations, which were not at all plentiful, brought as high as $15 per hundred for good stock. The supply of roses cleaned up quickly. Excellent Paper White narcissi were seen, but the supply was not large. The supply of violets met all demands. Not many sweet peas reached the market, but some excellent freesias arrived daily. Calla lilies were excellent and sold easily. Various Notes. George B. Hart attended the carna- tion convention and exhibition held in Chicago last week. About six bulb salesmen from Hol- land were in town last week; also Stephen D. Green, of H. Bayersdorfer & Co.'J Philadelphia, and Julius Berg, of Li(*n & Co., New York, as well as sev- eiai. large growers, who stopped off on their way to Chicago. Charles Suhr is growing some good bulbous stock, which is coming along well. His Boston ferns are making good growth and are selling nicely. Robert H. Bard, of Syracuse, made a trip to the city last week. During his short stay he was well entertained by his old friends here. H. J. H.
