NEW CASTLE, PA. 



If ever the drummer is out of sea- 

 son and out of place, it is during East- 

 er week, and particularly during the 

 last three days, when the harvest is 

 on. and hustle and bustle seem the or- 

 der of the hour. At such a time one 

 had better keep out of sight, for no 

 florist, be he ever so genial and so- 

 ciable, cares to entertain the agent. 



That the Easter of 1900 is a record- 

 breaker is conceded on all sides. 

 Everything sold, from the tiniest daisy 

 to the mammoth azalea or hydrangea. 



W. D. Fischer & Sons report the 

 best trade they ever had, with supply 

 barely keeping pace with the demand, 

 although, In anticipation of a large 

 trade, they were exceptionally well 

 equipped to meet and supply all de- 

 mands. 



Messrs. Butz Bros, likewise report a 

 rush, the like of which has never been 

 known in the past. With a stock of 

 roses that seemed more than enough 

 for all purposes, they had barely 

 enough with which to fiil orders. Bulb- 

 ous stock, azaleas, and all sorts of 

 blooming plants sold exceptionally 

 well. S.

Only a few members turned out at 

 club roll Tuesday evening. April 10, 

 but some good scores were made. Berry 

 and Scott racing each other for high 

 man, but it's a toss-up who is better.

SPRINGFIELD. ILL.— Easter trade 

 for 1900 was all right. Everything 

 from a rose to a geranium bloom went 

 oft like hot cakes at fair prices. There 

 seemed to be just about enough stock 

 to go around.
