overhead flow pipe as suggested and, 

 at the farther end o,f the house, drop 

 down two 2-inch supply pipes under the 

 benches to supply the coils, each of 

 which should contain six 2-inch returns. 

 In case it would be safe to drop the 

 temperature in the house to 60 degrees 

 when the weather is severe, one pipe in 

 each coil might be omitted. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



The market was well supplied with 

 stock last week, with the exception of 

 carnations, which were scarce. Boses 

 arrived in quantity the first of the week 

 and the latter part of the week the 

 market was cleaned. Stock tightened 

 up somewhat. The outlook for Moth- 

 ers ' day looks slim. There are not many 

 plants in the market. Bulbous stock is 

 scarce and few outdoor tulips or 

 jonquils are in the market. Peas are 

 arriving in quantity and clean up well. 

 Calendulas are moving slowly. Easter 

 lilies are plentiful. 



Storm Damages Greenhouses. 



The greenhouses of the Brookline 

 Floral Co. were badly damaged by the 

 wind storm which struck Cleveland and 

 vicinity May 4. Four houses, which 

 were heavily stocked with carnations 

 for Mothers' day, were completely 

 blown down. Glass was blown for half 

 a mile. A barn on the property was 

 split in two and one section was tossed 

 more than 100 feet. The boiler house 

 was lifted off its foundations and moved 

 about ten feet. A residence occupied 

 by Superintendent John Knorr and his 

 family suffered considerable damage. 

 One of his children was severely cut by 

 flying glass. 



The damage to the greenhouses is 

 estimated at $8,000, which was covered 

 by insurance. It is hoped that some 

 of the stock will be saved when the 

 debris is taken off. 



Louis Koehl, operator of the plant, in- 

 tends to rebuild immediately. W. F. B. 



Princeton, 111. — W. E. Trimble says 

 his company had the biggest Easter 

 ever dreamed of, selling out on every- 

 thing that was in shape to sell. 



Meadvllle, Pa. — George W. Haas & 

 Son were tired but happy, as they did a 

 record Easter business. They were for- 

 tunate in having a nice lot of lilies, 

 which went quickly at 50 cents per bud 

 and flower. They also had a number of 

 azaleas and a good quantity of bulbous 

 stock. Even geraniums in flower sold 

 well. "The next thing," say Haas & 

 Son, "is the Victory loan; let's put it 

 over."
