KANSAS CITY, 



Business has kept up with the supply 

 of stock in cut flowers since Kaster. 

 E\-erybody is doing a nice early spring 

 business, and tliere have l)een some very 

 good orders for funerals lately. Every- 

 body is getting Iiis sli::ie of this kind 

 of work. 



The weather has been tro cool t~> do 

 much outdoor plar,tiiii.', and ihe green- 

 house men are kicking licciuse they ^ay 

 it will all come with a rush and cvei'y- 

 body will want his work done first. 



The department stores are again sell- 

 ing roses and carnations on Saturdays. 

 In fact, they are selling everything in 

 our line — feins, plants and all kind-i of 

 bulbs. It was reported that one firm 

 had a shipment of o^OOO fern balls to 

 be put on sale soon. L. M. S. 



DES MOINES, lA. 



Easter trade was far in advance of 

 former years with prices about as last 

 year. Lilies led in demand with roses 

 and carnations following in order named. 

 Plants were not much called for, many 

 hyacinths in pots being ofTered with poor 

 sales. All the stores ( with the excep- 

 tion of one firm that had laid in a tre- 

 mendous stock) sold out. 



Mr. Jarritt, for many years with J. 

 F. ilarshall, has gone to North Caro- 

 lina where he will make his home. 



Mr. W. Dittmer has accepted a situa- 

 tion with the Des jSIoines Water Works 

 Co. Tliey will build a greenhouse 20x50 

 and will beautify their grounds of about 

 two acres. We are glad to see cor- 

 porations thus improving their sur- 

 roundings and the boys all welcome Mr. 

 Dittmer to our city. J. T. D. F. 



Fremont, Neb. — C. H. Green says: 

 "Had a most satisfactory Easter all the 

 way through. Good weather gave us an 

 ample supply of cut flowers without 

 shipping in any ; money value about 35 

 per cent greater than last year. They 

 did not seem to care for plants except 

 Harrisii and callas (outside of chureli 

 decorations, of course), but everything 

 in the way of cut flowers looked good 

 to them. Carnations one-third higher 

 than last year, otherwise prices the 

 same as then. Cleaned up everything 

 but filled all orders. Most profitable 

 Easter we have seen." 



Lincoln, Neb. — Cliapin Bros, report 

 Easter trade as great and all they could 

 attend to. Lilies had the call in plants, 

 with azaleas, hydrangeas, spireas, pans 

 of daffs and hyacinths running in a 

 bunch. Palms and Boston ferns sold 

 well, with plenty to go around. Car- 

 nations led in cut flowers, mth a short 

 supply all the week, selling at 75 cents 

 to .$1 a dozen. Roses were in good sup- 

 ply, as well as daffs, violets, valley and 

 tulips. Taken as a whole trade will 

 piobaoly riin 30 per cent larger than -i 

 year ago. Weather was warm and pleas- 

 ant, though quite windy. The other 

 florists were all busy and presume their 

 trade was as satisfactory to them as 

 ours was to us. 



Elmiea, N. Y. — H. N. Hoffman says 

 the supply of plants and flowers for 

 Easter was just about equal to the de- 

 mand, except home grown violets, which 

 were scarce. Prices were slightly bet- 

 ter and the total sales show an increase 

 of perhaps ten per cent. Lilies, azaleas 

 and Rambler roses sold out clean. 



Rochester. N. Y. — The greenhouses of 

 John Dobbertin were badly damaged by 

 fire April "20.
