The Market. 



Newark florists generally report good 

 Easter business. Prices were high and 

 some flowers usually sold at East r 

 were scarce, but other flowers were 

 more plentiful and sold readily. Easter 

 lilies were so scarce ^nd so high that 

 some of the smaller dealers did not 

 handle them at all, while others, who 

 usually have several hundred, were 

 satisfied with a few dozen. Only the 

 larger stores had a good supply and 

 even there it was smaller than usual. 

 Another Easter staple that was missed 

 was the azalea. There were some hardy 

 azaleas but no store had a large number 

 of plants and many had none. There 

 were fine potted hydrangeas, potted 

 roses and spiraeas, however, and bulbous 

 spring flowers, which sold readily. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Luthy, 363 Springfield ave- 

 nue, reports business good, but prices 

 high. On account of the scarcity of 

 Easter lilies, he did not open an Easter 

 branch store this year. 



M. Gahr, 312 Springfield avenue, sub- 

 stituted calla lilies for Easter lilies this 

 Easter, because of the scarcity and high 

 price of the latter. 



James Plunkett, of Connolly & Plun- 

 kett, 20 Belmont avenue, has been dis- 

 charged from the army and is now back 

 at his work. 



The Victoria Florists, a new concern, 

 have opened a store at 66 Springfield 

 avenue. B. B. M. 



OUTHBIi:, OKLA. 



J. W. Furrow, of Furrow & Co., states 

 that his firm had an extremely good Eas- 

 ter business. A few weeks ago it was 

 reported that Furrow & Co. had sold 

 their store at Oklahoma City to the Fos- 

 ter Floral Co., Lon Foster having been 

 in charge there for the former owners. 

 But the greenhouses and retail store at 

 Guthrie were not affected by the sale of 

 the Oklahoma City store; Furrow & Co. 

 will continue the growing and retailing 

 at Guthrie as heretofore. The spring 

 trade thus far has been the largest ever 

 done at Guthrie.
