AMONG THE GROWERS. 



Sinner Bros., Chicago. 



The stock in the establishment of 

 Messre. Sinner Bros, is in fine condition 

 all through and they are right in it for 

 Easter. Thev grow 2.S00 Brides, 2,800 

 ■ Maids, 2,800 Golden Gate and 2,000 Me- 

 teors, and the quality of the blooms has 

 been good the entire season. 



They have kept a record of the blooms 

 cut from their carnations and below 

 we print the record from .Sept. ], 1901, 

 to March 1, 1902. They grade their 

 flowers and all short stemmed and small 

 flowers are classed as thirds.

 using Garland iron gutters and continu- 

 ous ventilation with four Evans' ma- 

 chines to each house. They will plant 

 one house right after Easter. G. ('. 

 Anderson is foreman. 



THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURAL 

 ASSOCIATION. 



The executive committee of the above 

 met in Toronto on the 14th of -vlarch to 

 discuss arrangements for the 1902 con- 

 vention to be held in Hamilton. The date 

 fixed on is Wednesday and Thursday, the 

 3d and 4th of September. This date is 

 during the first week of the Toronto In- 

 dustrial exhibition, so that those living 

 at a distance will be able to obtain 

 greatly reduced rates, and the fare from 

 Toronto to Hamilton (40 miles) being 

 a very small item. 



The Hamilton Horticultural Society 

 will hold a horticultural fete and exhibi- 

 tion during the convention and invite 

 the trade to make a special feature of 

 the trade exhibits this year; tnere will 

 be plenty of room in the hall they have 

 secured. 



As the Hamilton convention looms up 

 it looks as if it would be the largest 

 and best "that has been." E.

KALAMAZOO, MIC P. 



Will send you a full report of Easter 

 trade conditions next week. The sales 

 and orders up to date are away ahead 

 of last year. Carnations are good, but 

 are not nearly plentiful enough to till 

 the demand. Eoses are a fair cut, but 

 the demand as yet is not very brisk. 

 Beauties are fairly plentiful and sell out 

 readily. Lilies are in great demand ; 

 the stock of these around here is good 

 and the blooms of fine quality. Violets 

 plenty, quality good, demand fair. 

 Weather clear and warm. Bibes. 



Ple.\se favor us with a report of the 

 Easter trade in your city, mailing same 

 on Monday and oblige.
