Florists 



Out of 

 Town 



F. L. Zeigler of Newport, R. 1., held 

 an opening of his Bellevue avenue 

 store on April 9, and presented floral 

 souvenirs to all patrons. 



D. William Brainard, Thompsonville, 

 Conn.,' held his annual Easter display 

 from Wednesday to Saturday, April 5- 

 18, with a fine array of tempting 

 stock. 



H. R. Hughes of Chicago, who is the 

 most original and ingenious advertiser 

 in the retail florist business, has is- 

 sued a folder for Easter, 190S, showing 

 illustrations of some of his unique win- 

 dow decorations. 



We fall to see anything attractive 

 or appropriate in the "Armadillo bas- 

 kets'' offered as a novelty for florists' 

 use this season. With so much pretty 

 material available for basket making 

 as evidenced in the stock to be seen 

 in an establishment such as Bayers- 

 dorfer's, for instance, there is no need 

 to use such "creepy" things as flower 

 receptacles. 



No rose is better liked by the J. M. 

 Casser Company than Gen'l MacArthur 

 and they carry it as a regular stock all 

 winter. Grown as they grow it, with 

 cool treatment, it is strong and healthy 

 almost beyond belief and is a big pro- 

 ducer. Its bright crimson color and 

 unrivalled fragrance make this rose 

 very popular and it deserves more gen- 

 eral attention from tlie growers. 



Business is quiet, but 

 DETROIT considering the many 



bookings of Easter or- 

 ders so far reported we can truly say 

 it is the ominous quiet before the 

 storm. May it storm good and hard, 

 because many a cash drawer is parched 

 badly and needs a heavy soaking. Most 

 of tltc stores are beginning to put on 

 the holiday dress.
