The Maxket. 



The consensus of opinion is that the 

 Easter trade this year was enormous. 

 That it has set a record is fully ap- 

 parent, even at this early writing. The 

 lateness of Easter this year and the 

 unfavorable weather preceding the holi- 

 day did not have the slightest deprecia- 

 tory effect in this vicinity. 



The public ordered flowers late this 

 year. The bulk of the business was 

 transacted April 22, and this feature 

 made the holiday difficult for the florist 

 who did not have a large sales and de- 

 livery force. The most noticeable fea- 

 ture of the Easter business was the se- 

 lect class of trade. High-grade flowers, 

 especially in the cut flowers, were 

 heaviest in demand, although all grades 

 were eagerly bought. The report every- 

 where IS that the supply, although 

 great, was wholly unequal to the de- 

 mand. This was more noticeable in cut 

 flowers than in plants, although the ma- 

 jority of florists were entirely sold out 

 of potted bulbous stock and could have 

 sold many more plants had they been 

 available. 



There was a fine supply of roses, 

 Shawyer, Killarney and Eussell pre- 

 dominating in the pink varieties; Rich-

mond and Rhea Beid in the red, al- 

 though these were far less plentiful 

 than the pink; Sunburst, Ophelia and 

 Ward in the yellow; Kaiserin and White 

 Killarney in the white varieties. The 

 carnation crop from the local growers 

 was quite large. Easter lilies were suffi- 

 cient, and they were the only flowers of 

 which this could be said. Snapdragons 

 were cut in great numbers and were of 

 excellent quality, with stems thirty-six 

 to forty inches in length. The supply 

 of cut bulbous stock was large, espe- 

 cially of tulips, jonquils, daffodils and 

 narcissi; the demand was especially 

 good. 



Orchids were short of the demand. 

 The supply of cattleyas from local 

 growers was good and the quality ex- 

 cellent. Valley was poor and hard to 

 obtain. Violets were not to be had 

 within reasonable distance. Aaron 

 Ward roses, forget-me-nots and swain- 

 sonas were used to a great extent for 

 corsages. Sweet peas were plentiful
