plaint is that Enchantress is far too 

 plentiful. Valley is behaving in a most 

 unusual way. It is actually sluggish! 

 Though surely in the limelight, Easter 

 lilies are not moving any too well. 

 Violets, however, are clearing. So, too, 

 are sweet peas. Tulips still meet with 

 a fair demand. The supply of south- 

 ern jonquils has been sufficiently great 

 to take the edge oflf the market, and, 

 as a consequence, they are not moving 

 as rapidly as they should. Cattleyas 

 are decidedly scarce, and though there 

 is no great demand for them all re- 

 ceipts clear on arrival. 



Asparagus sprays for funeral work 

 are in more than usual demand. Ferns, 

 too, find a ready sale. Smilax, how- 

 ever, shares with cattleyas the honor 

 of being on the short side of the mar- 

 ket. Other greens are moving well 

 considering the condition of the mar- 

 ket. . 



Various Notes. 



George Asmus is having a bad time 

 with his throat and has been taking 

 treatment for three weeks. Although 

 the swelling permits him to speak hard- 

 ly above a whisper, it could not keep 

 him away from the National Flower 

 Show, for he is chairman of the com- 

 mittee. 



There was a reunion of the Budd 

 family at Philadelphia, March 25. W. 

 N. and Mrs. Rudd were from Chicago, 

 Miss Phyllis went from Ithaca, where 

 she is in Cornell, and Miss Margaret 

 joined them from the famous New 

 York farm on which she contributes 

 her part to scientific management. 



George J. Ball has all his space in 

 Spencer sweet peas this spring and is 

 picking some unusually long stems as 

 well as a large quantity. 



After having driven one of the earlier 

 Pierce-Arrow sixes 50,000 miles, W. J. 

 Smyth has traded it in for the last 

 word in that maker's car. He expects 

 delivery of the new machine May 1. 



With all the new red carnations com- 

 ing on the market this season, the man- 

 agement of the Peter Beinberg estab-
