buy. We firmly believe that from now 

 on we can look for a better trade at bet- 

 ter prices than we have had for the last 

 several seasons. 



"One great liandicap that we now 

 have is the scarcity of labor; it is almost 

 impossible to secure enough labor to 

 handle our business. With this condi- 

 tion improved, we cannot but take an 

 optimistic view of the future in the 

 nursery business. ' ' 



WATEEBURY, CONN. 



The influenza epidemic lasted six 

 weeks in Waterbury and the death rate 

 was large. During that time the florists 

 were rushed with funeral work. 



The supply of stock now is much bet- 

 ter than it was three weeks ago, when 

 there was such a demand that it was 

 simply impossible to fill all orders. All 

 the florists worked night and day and 

 could have done more if they had been 

 able to get the flowers. 



The theaters and schools now have re- 

 opened and the ban has been removed 

 from public gatherings. 



At the Ryan & Powers store there were 

 days during the epidemic when all the 

 flowers received were made up into 

 funeral designs and pieces, and several 

 days many orders were refused.
