The Market. 



The weather now is favorabU^ for 

 planting and everyone is hustling to 

 make up for lost time. Thousands of 

 earnations will go in the field this week 

 and those who grow vegetables as a 

 part of their business will find this one 

 of the busiest weeks of the year. 



Tlie demand for seeds and bulbs over 

 the counter is heavy now. (Jladioli are 

 being ])lanti'd freely. Bedding jjlants 

 will begin to move by tlie last of the 

 week. 



The Easter stock is being subjected 

 to more heat or ])laced in cool houses, 

 according to its jyrogress. The outlook 

 is for tlie best Easter trade the city has 

 ever known, and most of the stock 

 ])roniises to be on time. There is little 

 novelty in sight for Easter this season. 

 Sometiiing good and deciih'dly different 

 is needed for the Easter trade, it seems.
