The Market. 



Trade St. Valentine's day was heavy, 

 according to reports. There was a 

 large demand • for sweet peas, violets, 

 valley and the smaller roses for cor- 

 sages, and other stock, such as roses, 

 carnations and spring flowers, came in 

 for a share of the trade. Everyone was 

 well satisfied with the day's business. 

 It is a day we can count on for good 

 returns. Funeral work has been large; 

 there seems to be no end to it. 



Boses have been somewhat scarce, 

 especially pinks, and the demand has 

 been heavy. Carnations are in heavy 

 crop, but they are a little soft. Sweet 

 peas are fine and find a ready sale, espe- 

 cially in corsages, which have been in- 

 creasing rapidly. Violets are holding 

 their own and their quality is good. 

 Lilies are scarce and the demand for 

 them is satisfactory. Bulbous stock is 

 coming in heavily and finds a ready 

 sale. 



Various Notes. 



The Livingston Seed Co. has installed 

 a new refrigerator, which was in work- 

 ing order for Valentine's day. There 

 was a good display for the event. 



Graff Bros, report trade as being good 

 Valentine's day and a great demand 

 for sweet peas. 



The Munk Floral Co. made a good 

 display in the new windows, which add 

 greatly to the appearance of the store.

DIRT BANDS 



Very soon every grower will be mak- 

 ing free use of dirt bands for the grow- 

 ing of all plants. Certainly, no florist 

 can afford to pass them by. They are 

 time and money savers, producing better 

 plants at less cost and with less labor. 

 It simply is a question of getting the 

 best band. 



Our new READY-USE dirt band tells 

 its own story. Send a postal for free 

 samples and see how it does it. It comes 

 to you ready to set the plant in, which 

 means saving of very valuable time re- 

 quired to fold the ordinary strips of 

 paper commonly offered for bands. 



We make plain bands, too, from high- 

 grade, hard finish stock. Samples will 

 be sent. Compare them with others and 

 put them to any test. It is not how 

 cheap, but how good, is our motto.
