TORONTO, ONT. 



The Market. 



Despite the soaring prices of flowers, 

 the Toronto retail florists are enjoying 

 one of the busiest seasons on record. 

 As a result of the great amount of sick- 

 ness and the large number of deaths, 

 the majority of the florists are forced 

 to work long hours overtime to fill their 

 orders. 



There is a great scarcity of flowers, 

 as the demand for cut flowers exceeds 

 the supply. In order to fill the orders 

 for the day, some of the florists will not 

 accept orders for immediate delivery 

 .'if tor 2 o'clock. The remainder of the 

 day is taken up with filling the orders 

 received the early part of the day. Even 

 with this precaution, florists are finding 

 great difficulty in supplying the de- 

 mands of their customers. 



Another feature of the demand is 

 that money appears to be no object 

 when a young man comes in to purchase 

 flowers for his best girl. He pays the 

 price as long as he can get what he 

 wants. 



The call for flowers for hospitals and 

 for the sick in the homes is being helped 

 by the number of plants now available. 

 These plants are selling well and have 

 been the means of mitigating a serious 

 shortage. 



Various Notes. 



The third annual ball of the Toronto 

 Retail Florists' Club was held in the 

 Metropolitan Club rooms, Monday, 

 February 9, with an attendance of 

 slightly over 150. The small number 

 this year is accounted for by the sick-
