The Market. 



Business is fair and the supply of 

 stock is Jarge enough to take care of all 

 present demands. In addition to the 

 supply from regular sources, a large 

 quantity of stock is coming in from 

 other points. The Decoration day sup- 

 ply promises to be good. 



Koses of all kinds, including American 

 Beauties, are in good supply. Carna- 

 tion receipts are heavy. The Easter 

 lily cut is so heavy that the blooms are 

 selling at buyers' prices only. In addi- 

 tion to the large quantities of green- 

 house-grown sweet peas, outdoor sweet 

 peas now are coming into the market. 

 The first cornflower came in last week. 

 Peonies are excellent in quality and 

 plentiful. Other offerings include callas, 

 snapdragons, irises, cape jasmines, val- 

 ley and orchids. All are in good sup- 

 ply. Greens of all kinds are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



L. H. Kyrk was the first wholesaler 

 to offer outdoor-grown sweet peas this 

 spring. They came in last Wednesday, 

 from Charles Schuemann, at Delhi. 



C. E. Critchell reports an unusually 

 heavy advance booking of orders for 

 Memorial day. 



William Taylor has been cutting some 

 fine America gladioli.

Thursday, May 18, the Lancaster 

 County Florists' Association held its 

 monthly meeting. There was a good 

 attendance, considering the rush of 

 work. Complying with the request of 

 the program committee, Albert M. Herr 

 read a paper on "Looking Backward 

 and Forward in the Florists' Business." 

 Mr. Herr reviewed his early days in 

 the business with A. D. Rohr'er & Bros., 

 and then told of the establishment of 

 his own business and its growth up to 

 the present time, ending with an opti- 

 mistic prophecy of the future. His 

 paper contained valuable points for all 

 who would hear and was one of the 

 best ever presented at a club meeting. 

 The discussion that followed Mr. Herr's 

 paper showed the interest taken in the 

 subject. 



The club voted to hold a flower show 

 November 9 to 11. While chrvsanthe- 

 munis will be the main feature of the 

 show, many of the members are already 

 starting to grow other stock for the 

 exhibition. President Schrover ap- 

 pointed as a picnic committee Elmer .T 

 Weaver, A. F. Strickler and Rudolph 

 Nagle. 



The next meeting will be held .Tune 

 15, when a large attendance is desir- 

 able. Rudolph Nagle showed a fine 

 specimen plant of Pelargonium Easter 

 Greeting, of which he has a large stock 

 for propagating. 



A. N. Rohrer will erect a Hitchings 

 greenhouse this summer. .T. W. Gavley 

 expects to add a large house to" his
