LOWELL, MASS. 



Messrs. Patten & Roberts report a 

 very satisfactory Easter trade. They 

 had one of the finest and largest dis- 

 plays of lilies ever seen here. They 

 were "crackerjacks." Thursday and 

 Friday it looked as though somi 

 might be left on hand, as one of the 

 dry goods houses was selling lilies at 

 cut prices, but nevertheless all were 

 sold and many more could have been 

 disposed of. Cut flowers at this estab- 

 lishment were in abundance and of 

 Al quality. 



In the midst of their Easter trade 

 they had a lot of funeral work. One 

 of the designs worthy of mention was 

 a handsome wreath five feet in diam- 

 eter, made of valley embellished with 

 violets, which was one of the pretti- 

 est designs seen here in a long time. 

 They are now certain that their new 

 store at 8 Mark Square is the finest 

 location in town. 



McManmon reports a good trade. 

 having sold plenty of azaleas and rho- 

 dodendrons. 



Whittet & Co. say business was very 

 satisfactory. 



AH the florists in the town are 

 sharpening their axes for the man who 

 sold the lilies to the dry goods mer- 

 chant. M. 



THE QUEEN OF EDGELY. 



On the 17th inst. the silver medal of 

 the Pennsylvania Horticultural So- 

 ciety was awarded to the Floral Ex- 

 change, Philadelphia, for the new rose 

 Queen of Edgely, the pink sport of 

 American Beauty. 



The Floral Exchange has recently 

 contracted for 25.000 feet of glass to be 

 used for growing their new rose. One 

 of the houses will have thirteen beds 

 and will be called the Colonial house. 

 each bed being named after one of the 

 thirteen colonies. 



MINNEAPOLIS, MINN.— The Min- 

 nesota Botanical Society was organ- 

 ized at a meeting held here April 14. A 

 committee consisting of E. M. Free- 

 man, Mrs. E. F. Elliott and Miss Grace 

 Hayes was appointed to arrange for a 

 summer meeting and excursion at 

 Minnneapolis and Lake Minnetonka. 



CANASTOTA, N. Y.— Frederick A. 

 Taylor reports Easter trade as excel- 

 lent. Could have sold more flowers ;f 

 he had had them, though he added 

 two more houses to his plant during 

 the past year. One of these was 16xS0 

 and the other 10x80.
