The Easter Business. 



The Easter business this year was bet- 

 ter than that of last year, and if we had 

 not had two days of unfavorable weath- 

 er it would have surpassed all previous 

 records. It was difficult to obtain vio- 

 lets, which, as usual, were in great de- 

 mand for corsages. Valley and prim- 

 roses served as substitutes. Potted lilies 

 were plentiful and sold well, as did 

 azaleas, genistas, rambler roses, hydran- 

 geas and bulbous stock. There were not 

 80 many temporary retailers of flowers 

 this year, but several grocers sold lilies 

 at a price one-half of that asked by the 

 florists. The public apparently pre- 

 ferrsd to pay the difference, as the cut 

 prices did not seem to affect the sales of 

 those in the trade. The weather was 

 warm and deliveries easy. 



Various Notes. 



H. F. A. Lange did a fine business, 

 selling most of his large supply. His 

 150,000 square feet of glass were work- 

 ing day and night in preparation for 

 the holiday, and his stock was excellent, 

 A batch of pelargoniums pleased so 

 many that by Saturday noon the sup- 

 ply was exhausted. Mr. Lange had 

 many varieties and anyone wishing a 

 novelty had no difficulty in finding it at 

 his store. His windows were good and 

 attracted many customers. 



Harry I. Randall, proprietor of the 

 Bandall Flower Shop, reported his Eas- 

 ter business better than ever. His sup- 

 ply of stock was large and his cus- 

 tomers were not disappointed. 



Fred Madaus did a good business and 

 his satisfaction was recorded by a broad 

 grin. He had a large number of small 

 plants and they sold well. 



H. F. Littlefield opened a store at 

 564 Main street for the week,
