Flower Market Reports 



The condition of the mar- 

 BOSTON ket has not changed 

 much since our last re- 

 port. There is an over-abundance in 

 all lines, with a little less demand 

 than last week. The most plentiful 

 items are roses, sweet peas and bul- 

 bous stock. Shipping trade is good. 



The cold weather 

 WASHINGTON at the end of last 

 week put a stop to 

 the terrible oversupply of stock of all 

 kinds which threatened to disrupt the 

 market. Business has kept up after 

 Easter better than formerly because 

 of the increased number of wedding 

 decorations. The stores had plenty 

 of stock to pick from and prices were 

 down to rock bottom. Roses could be 

 had at as low as $2 per hundred. 

 Sweet peas are no longer good unless 

 used the day they are picked. Violets 

 are passing and spring flowers are un- 

 desirable and almost without price. 

 Carnations are plentiful and are bring- 

 ing good returns, but they also are on 

 the wane. 



Flowers were 



PHILADELPHIA never seen in 



finer form in this 



market than they showed up last 



week. Roses especially were really 



wonderful. The Russells and Hadleys

and Columbias especially were of ex- 

 hibition quality; but all along the line 

 everything was good. Carnations also 

 were of top notch quality, as a rule; 

 but in smaller supply than roses. 

 There was a fine showing of sweet 

 peas, Spanish iris, delphinium, snap- 

 dragon, and other seasonable special- 

 ties; and all of these were above the 

 usual grade as to quality. Cattleyas 

 and gardenias were rather on the 

 scarce side and the latter seems to be 

 about over. A few tulips and daffodils 

 were to be seen but these did not 

 cut nearly the figure they usually do 

 at this season of the year. Prices 

 were moderate and as is usual for a 

 post-Easter week the demand was 

 rather light; but everything cleaned 

 up pretty well. 



WAR TRADE BOARD. 

 The War Trade Board has with- 

 drawn its Enemy Trading Lists, and 

 hereafter florists and all others in the 

 United States desiring to do so may 

 freely trade and communicate with 



persons in foreign countries heretofore 

 blacklisted because of enemy affilia- 

 tions or because of failure to live up 

 to all of the conditions imposed by the 

 United States and the governments 

 associated with us in the war respect- 

 ing trading with the enemy. The re- 

 moval of the lists does not in any way 

 modify the existing restrictions placed 

 upon trading with persons, firms or 

 corporations in Germany or Hungary. 

 The issuance of the enemy trading 

 lists by the United States and the As- 

 sociated Governments had the effect of 

 cutting off communications with per- 

 sons, firms and corporations in the 

 countries to the south of us and in 

 neutral European countries; Follow- 

 ing the signing of the armistice, how- 

 ever, every effort was made to bring 

 conditions of trade and commerce back 

 to normal, and the withdrawal of these 

 lists is a step in that direction. How- 

 ever, if necessary, the government will 

 reimpose the conditions of the Trad- 

 ing with the Enemy Law and again 

 institute the enemy trading lists and 

 the trade prohibitions.
