White Killarney roses. All are sold 

 out quickly each day. 



With the exception of 1874, the pres- 

 ent winter has broken all records for 

 snowfall. Temperatures of zero and 

 several degrees below were recorded 

 here March 18, and the snow at the 

 time of writing is deeper than at any 

 time during the winter. 



Peirce Bros., of Waltham, who» used 

 to be the largest growers of lilies for 

 Easter in this section, are not growing 

 any this season. The largest part of 

 their range is devoted to roses and 

 they expect to add a house 50x300 this 

 season. D'Arenberg does particularly 

 well with them; also, Ophelia, Eallamey 

 Queen and Mile. Cecile Brunner. 



Patrick Welch reports the cut flower 

 business as being good. He is getting 

 large shipments of roses and reports 

 a splendid call, especially for medium 

 grades. His valley is exceptionally 

 fine. 



The T. J. Grey Co. reports mail-order 

 business extremely heavy. The men 

 have been obliged to work evenings to 

 keep abreast of orders. Counter trade, 

 owing to the severe weather, has been 

 lighter than usual, but is now im- 

 proving. 



Edward Bingham, of Dedham, con- 

 tinues to bring in superior double and 

 single violets. He was successful in 

 capturing first prizes in each class at 

 the exhibition in Horticultural hall last 

 week. 



Charles Walter, of North Stoughton, 

 is shipping in a splendid lot of Christ- 

 mas Pink sweet peas and Golden Spur 

 narcissi. 



At Penn's some baskets of sweet 

 peas, with Coelogyne cristata on the 

 handles, were an attractive window fea- 

 ture. General business continues re- 

 markably good. 



T. J. Benwell says that the A. H. 

 Hews Co., which he represents, has had 

 an unprecedentedly busy season. The 

 greatest trouble has been in making 

 deliveries, owing to the deep snow and 

 railroad embargoes. 



EUery Briggs, of Dighton, is sending 

 in fine lots of winter Spencer sweet 

 peas; also callas and single violets.

William T. Walke, of Salem, has a 

 grand lot of Tausendachon roses, 

 hydrangeas, lilies and other Easter 

 stock. He has some magnificent plants 

 of General de Vibraye and Monstrosa 

 hydrangeas, over six feet in diameter. 



The prizes and exhibitions commit- 

 tee of the Massachusetts Horticultural 

 Society will meet this week and draw 

 a schedule for the spring show, to be 

 held March 21 to 25, 1917. This will 

 be on a much enlarged scale.

 grand jury March 17 for the murder of 

 his father, Albert W. Eoper, at Tewks- 

 bury, March 1. 



Florists' Bowling League. 



The games played March 17, which

 left three teams tied for first place.
