flowers as a regular thing. One of the 

 places where they ply their trade is the 

 better class of restaurants; a bunch of 

 roses often will be bought to take home 

 as a peace offering by someone who has 

 kept dinner waiting; or on the streets 

 many a man will purchase flowers be- 

 cause they are cheap, with no regard 

 to quality or freshness. The people will 

 not complain if the flowers do not keep. 

 The main point is that the street men 

 break a certain class of people into the 

 habit of using flowers. Another point 

 is that the street men are of 

 great help to the wholesale houses 

 in cleaning up a lot of stock that other- 

 wise would find its way to the garbage 

 can. I have been giving this question a 

 good bit of study, and it is only when 

 stock is plentiful that the faker can suc- 

 cessfully push his business. When prices 

 are normal, the fakers will not buy and 

 the wholesaler will not offer induce- 

 ments. 



The express trouble at this time is be- 

 coming acute. None of the companies 

 will receive perishable shipments except 

 at the owner's risk. At the S. S. Pen- 

 nock Co. store I saw a large shipment 

 of dahlias that had been turned over to 

 the company to get what it could out of 

 the flowers by the Wells Fargo Co., the 

 consignee having refused to accept the 

 flowers because they had been so long in 

 transit. If it is possible, something 

 should be done about this at once, for 

 the way the matter stands at present 

 the florist is taking chances. If this 

 trouble gets worse, there is the automo- 

 bile. This may be more expensive, but 

 we will all remember the old proverb 

 we were taught when children, "Neces- 

 sity knows no law." 



The Vincent Dahlia Show. 



All through last week in the street 

 cars or wherever a crowd of people met 

 in Baltimore, the expression you were 

 sure to hear was, "Are you going out 

 to the Vincents' dahlia show?" It was 

 much the same as we hear when the cir- 

 cus is in town.
