GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. 



It iras expected that Lent ivould les- 

 sen the demand for cut flowers, but, for 

 all one can see, it has had no effect upon 

 sales, which continue steady and firm. 



The demand for carnations about 

 equals the supply, while roses are a trifle 

 scarce. There is plenty of bulb stock to 

 be had and the demand is good. Lilies 

 will be fair for Easter, but in very short 

 supply. There will be a good supply of 

 Crimson Ramblers, American Beauties 

 in pots, any amount of bulbs in pans and 

 pots, and plenty of azaleas. 



On the homeward trip from the carna- 

 tion meeting the Grand Rapids florists 

 were in the Monroe wreck. Henry Smith 

 was badly bruised and is still in the 

 hands of his doctor; Crabb had a leg and 

 a hand badly bruised; the Hannah boys 

 escaped without a scratch. 



Recent visitors: Mr. McHutchinson, H, 

 B, Beatty, of W. W. Barnard & Co.; 

 Chas. Schwake, of Hagemann & Meyer, 

 and A. L. Vaughan, of E. H. Hunt.

NEW HAVEN, CONN. 



The semimonthly meeting of the New 

 Haven County Horticultural Society was 

 held at the Fii-st National Bank Building, 

 Tuesday evening, March 4. There was a 

 large attendance of members and friends. 

 A preliminary schedule for the fall show 

 was discussed and adopted. P. Menzics, 

 W. T. Simons and M. Dingwall were elect- 

 ed to membership. 



John Doughty read an able and in- 

 structive essay on the history .and cultiva- 

 tion of the tuberous rooted begonia. Mr. 

 Doughty also read a splendid paper on 

 the cultivation of Begonia Gloirc de Lor- 

 raine. At the same time he exhibited a 

 beautiful specimen of same, for which ho 

 was awarded a certificate of merit.
