Trade Conditions for Feb. JO- J 5. 



The week started olT with something 

 of a scarcity in everything; except all 

 kinds of bulb goods; but towards the 

 end of it old Father Time came out in 

 his new spring suit and all nature woke 

 up to greet the old gentleman. All the 

 greenhouse plants put on their best 

 colors, but the sordid-minded growers 

 ruthlessly cut them off and boxed them 

 to market, so the week closed with 

 everything plentiful except smallest 

 grade of all kinds of roses and all sizes 

 of red ones. 



Prices of last week were maintained, 

 but better goods were given for the 

 price, which condition probably will con- 

 tinue for a week or so yet until the 

 permanency of the weather is decided. 



Various Items- 



The firm of Ingram l^ Lyncs, of Read- 

 ing, Mass., has dissolved. They grew a 

 stock of carnations and violets which 

 will be maintained by Mr. James In- 

 gram. 



A correspondent writes to ask how he 

 can dispose of a small stock of plants 

 in Boston. This is a common question 

 from small growers at this time of year 

 and it would seem to be easy for one 

 well known to the citj' trade to place 

 such lots where so man_v are being sold 

 every day. My experience with plants 

 is after the "hens teeth" order ; 

 but the chief obstacle here is the 

 fact that a fair-minded buyer is fair- 

 minded enough to stick to the growers 

 who have supplied him all along, and 

 the other kind of a buyer offers so low 

 a price he gives you your first attack of 

 that "tired feeling." 



Too generally, the smaller grower can- 

 not compete in quality with the larger 

 and the latter by daily contact with the 

 city knows just who is most in need of 

 the goods. And no one will purchase 

 the goods without seeing them. Pre- 

 sumably there is a show among the auc- 

 tion sales a little later but here again 

 the competition of the larger grower is 

 felt. 



Another man writes he thinks he will 

 have to send me a dollar for a year's 

 subscription to the EE\^EW, so he will 

 not have to aslc so many questions. 



Nothing like the Boston notes therein, 

 to keep a florist's nose pointing in the 

 right direction, J, S. Manter,
