The Markets. 



Business was a bit quiet last week. 

 Boses arc plentiful and of good quality, 

 but carnations are scarce and of inferior 

 grade. Some good indoor asters are to 

 be had, aside from the many poor ones 

 offered. Easter and rubrum lilies are 

 fine and plentiful enough to meet re- 

 quirements. Gladioli still are in large 

 supply, of fine quality and selling well. 

 Golden Glow mums are here, but are not 

 selling so well as might be. On the 

 whole, there is an abundance of stock, 

 with sales rather slow. 



Club Meeting. 



The Tri-City Florists' Club met in 

 regular session at the J. W. Bettendorf 

 conservatories, on invitation of P. J. 

 Pearson. It was an afternoon meeting 

 and the club members had an opportu- 

 nity to view the spacious grounds and 

 beds of flowers, including carpet de- 

 signs. The conservatories, the largest 

 private establishment in these ])arts, 

 have shown up well under the careful 

 management of Mr. Pearson and his as- 

 sistants. 



The meeting was called to order by 

 President Anderson. The picnic com- 

 mittee submitted its final re])ort and was 

 discharged with thanks. After the gen- 

 eral business had been transacted, tlie 

 members partook of a fine supper. A 

 vote of thanks was tendered to Mr. and 

 Mrs. Pearson for their hospitality, after 

 Avhicli tlie club adjourned to meet at 

 the residence of William Goos, Oc'tol)er 

 11. 



Various Notes. 



Mrs. George Forber, of Forber & Bird, 

 is on a visit to Madison, Wis. She will 

 stop off at Chicago on lier return home. 



Miss M. A. Tierney, of the Bills Floral 

 Co., last week had a fine window display 

 of ferns, rubrum lilies and gladioli. 



W. G. 



Erie, Pa. — William Iloneysett is antic- 

 ipating Jack Frost by taking an early

 cially, will be doubly useful the coming

 caught napping.
