The eloquence lies in the lack of exaggeratio i 



and in the record back of the letter. 

 "The best is good enough for us all." 

 Men buy "fakes" ouce. They may buy 'i 



fairly good article twice. But they buy onl. 



"the best there is" for five years in successioi.

SCRANTON, PA. 



The Market. 



l-lu.siness has bocu extremely good dur- 

 ing the last week. Funeral work has 

 been heavy, and never before in the 

 history of the business has the call for 

 sick room flowers been so large. The 

 demand has been in excess of the supply. 

 Roses are still scarce and sell at $1.50 

 to $4 per dozen. Carnations are in fair 

 supply and bring $1 to $1..')0 per dozen. 

 Spring flowers are arriving more plenti- 

 fully and, as usual at this time of the 

 year, find an excellent sale. Sweet peas 

 are becoming more plentiful and are in 

 good demand. Valley remains scarce. 

 Snapdragons, pansies, freesias, calendu- 

 las and violets have a steady sale; 

 potted bulbous stock, primroses, cycla- 

 mens, azaleas and cinerarias find a ready 

 outlet. Greens of all kinds are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



The regular meeting of the Scranton 

 Florists' Club was held at the home of 

 T. B. McClintock, on Electric street, 

 February 5. There was a large attend- 

 ance and much business was transacted. 

 Reports from the flower show committee 

 showed that this year's show perhaps 

 will be the greatest ever. F. G. Moran, 

 who constitutes a committee on out-of- 

 state exhibits, reported that much space 

 has been .taken and suggests that all 

 concerns desiring to exhibit should noti- 

 fy him as soon as possible. Cooperative 

 advertising for St. Valentine's day was 

 discussed, and members agreed that it 

 was the only way to advertise large 

 flower days. A luncheon was served by 

 Mrs. T. B. McClintock, the gracious 

 hostess. 



A. L. Besaucon & Co. last week had 

 a fine window display of spring plants 

 and ciit flowers. This company is hav- 

 ing a heavy run of funeral work and 

 wedding decorations. Some excellent 

 Ophelia and Russell roses were noted at 

 the store. 



The outlook for St. Valentine's day 

 business was promising. The florists 

 undertook extensive advertising this 

 year. All the windows were decorated 

 with heart-shaped novelties, potted 

 plants and baskets of cut flowers. 



Muir & Co. report a busy week of 

 funeral work and counter trade.
