Easter Week. 



Easter week in all was very plca?ant. 

 It opened fair, but on Thursday a heavy 

 snow storm struck us and things lookeil 

 squally. Friday, Saturday and Sunday 

 though were summer days. Trade was 

 about 15 per cent better than last year. 

 To be sure, something was left over, but 

 the market was heavily stocked. 



Plants took the lead and some very 

 pretty things were seen. As was ex- 

 pected, lilies turned out short and by 

 Friday night several of the stores had 

 a shut-down. A grand lot of azale.is 

 were offered and cleaned out pretty well, 

 about $5 being the average price, with 

 a few good ones at $8 to $10. Ramblers 

 were quite abundant, but only the best 

 .sold. A few good hybrids also found 

 ready sale. Lilacs were grand and sold 

 at a' good price. Plant baskets proved 

 very popular, the price ranging from $.S 

 to $15. 



In cut flowers a good trade was done 

 They showed up in good quantities Sat- 

 urday, but Sunday morning being bright, 

 the market was well cleaned up. Beau- 

 ties and violets took the lead ; fancy car- 

 nations perhaps next in favor. Not so 

 much bulbous stuff was offered as in 

 other years, but I guess it wasn't missed. 



On Easter Monday the largest recep- 

 tion of the season was jrivcii ;in(l called 

 for a good sized decorni mn. Ilniiili.ils 

 of Beauties, Marquis cai n.u inn- ;uul .laf- 

 fodils were used. Tlie driiaaUuiis were 

 by the Park Floral Company. A spe- 

 cial feature was the table decoration, 

 miniature electric lights being used, 

 shaded to match the foliage and flower 

 of the Beauties, they being used in the 

 centerpiece. Rocky. 



Easter Trade. 

 Easter has come and gone but its 

 briiihtness is left rcllocted on the faces 

 „l our Dnn.'i 11. .11-1-. for it was un- 

 il.iiiKir.lh ilir li.-i .l:iy that they have 

 ,'\, r li,i>l. iln 1. h, iii;j l.its of flowers, and 

 what i.-. llic bf-i. Ill all, a great demand. 

 Lilies were sold out early and about the 

 only flower that was left over \vas the 

 modest violet, the supply of which was 

 large. A great many blooming plants 

 were disposed of — more than usual. 



Various Items. 



For the plant trade the florists are 

 anticipating a large demand for miscel- 

 laneous plants, as there is very little 

 done here in the way of design or car- 

 pet bedding outside of the city park, 

 where it is carried on quite extensively. 

 These flower beds and designs are as 

 fine as anywhere in the world, owing to
