7>ublic that it was the higher cost of 

 everything that entered into the produc- 

 tion of flowers that caused the increase. 

 Can we do that in the face of conditions 

 today? The public is as wise as wo are. 

 Are you paying the same for labor or 

 coal that you did a short time agot It 

 was not long since that we would tell 

 customers, when they complained of 

 high prices, what we were obliged to 

 pay for coal and that often we could 

 not get it at any price. Salesmen are 

 now soliciting the growers for coal or- 

 ders. 



I am well aware of the fact that when 

 many of the growers laid in their sup- 

 ply of coal they were obliged to pay 

 high prices. This is one of the contin- 

 gencies that any industry is obliged to 

 face at times; one that must be worked 

 out te the best advantage. The point 

 I want to emphasize is, don't, in work- 

 ing it out, kill the goose that laid the 

 golden egg; don't, during this readjust- 

 ment of prices that is going on in all 

 commodities all over the country, hurt 

 the business. If flowers can be pro- 

 duced at a lower cost — and there seems 

 to be no good reason why they should 

 not be in the face of falling prices in 

 all of the things that go into their pro- 

 duction — would there not be more flow- 

 ers soldi 



I have heard it argued that this would 

 bo of no benefit to the grower, for his 

 returns would be the same with a lim- 

 ited production and less work than with 

 a larger one. But is not this a danger- 

 ous way to look at it? Think it over. 

 There is no one more anxious to see the 

 grower get all he can for his product 

 than the writer, but will the public 

 stand for high-priced flowers when 

 prices in other lines are being reduced f 

 Take candies, for instance; we hear of 

 a reduction in price of one-third. It 

 seems to me that the price of flowers 

 must soon be reduced to meet this re- 

 duction. To maintain profits, there must
