week helped to keep back blooms. An 

 epidemic of influenza, worse than that 

 of a year ago last fall, has caused an 

 abnormal demand for flowers of all 

 kinds and everything else has given way 

 to a rush of funeral and hospital work. 

 With an unprecedented shortage of 

 stock that would be felt under normal 

 conditions, it is difficult to take care of 

 orders that pile up daily. The whole- 

 salers meet less than half of the calls 

 for stock. The retailers manage, by 

 economy, ingenuity and rare good luck, 

 to get by, wondering at the close of each 

 day how they did it and how they will 

 manage the next. 



It is a trying time for wholesalers 

 when florists in all parts of the country 

 are writing, wiring, calling by long dis- 

 tance telephone for flowers at any price. 

 to have to turn them down for want oi 

 stock. They all do it time after time 

 each day. What stock there is goes to 

 regular customers flrst and this has to 

 be apportioned so that everybody geta 

 a little. No one can say he is being 

 badly treated by the wholesalers. 



Prices are higher than a week ago, 

 with roses at from $15 to $30; oamft* 

 tions, $15; freesias, $8; sweet peas, from 

 $1.50 to $4, and California violets, $8 

 per dozen bunches. The roses comprisa 

 Ophelia, Shawyer, Bussell and Colum- 

 bia. Carnations were never so high at 

 this time of ye?tr. The last few ship- 

 ments of violet^ have not been up to 

 standard, owing to poor packing. 



Variotia Notes. 



Samuel Murray is showing his first 

 white lilac plants of the season. He has 

 some fine cyclamen from growers and 

 babj primroses from his own greens 

 houses. These have been used for fu- 

 neral orders and he has sold a good 

 many baskets for funerals. 



Bay Blessing, of T. J. Noll ft Co., says 

 he could sell five times the quantity of 

 flowers he receives every day. "At
