neral in the Chicago district in many 

 years. Nearly every wholesale house 

 in the Chicago market sent someone as 

 a mark of re.spect and scores of growers 

 were present. There were many flowers. 



February was a month of mixed 

 weather conditions. It was warmer 

 than any other February since 1915, the 

 averag<' daily excess being 8 degrees 

 above normal. But sunshine was only 

 thirty-eight per cent of the possible, 

 tlie normal for the month being fifty- 

 one jier cent. 



Fifteen thousand Milady are sup- 

 ]ilanting as majiy Premier at the 

 Premier Kose Gardens, Maywood. The 

 name of this range may before a great 

 while is past be a misnomer. One of

 with Miladv and the other with Rus- 

 sell.

 ble his range of 100,000 feet of glass at

 displace Ophelia. 



Sensing the increasing demand for 

 bedding stock and pot plants, Peter 

 Reinberg this season gave some of his 

 Summerdah; houses to this class of 

 stock. Among other things, there is a 

 nice batch of lilies coming on.

The Market. 



N(i maikcd change has taken jdace in 

 the cut flower market since last week's 

 report. (iiidd >u]iplics of ])ractically 

 (■\erything arc cniTiiiio- in. Out-of-tfiwn 

 buying continues good and clearances 

 have, on the wlndc, been s:itisfactory, 

 with some ]>rice concessions. 



There is little change in roses. The 

 KiJlarneys continue to sell lower than 

 the f)tlier \aricties and are the hard- 

 est to move. Prices on whites have 

 dropped as low as $2 \ht hundred, while 

 on such sorts as Columbia, Premier, Pil- 

 grim, Madame Butterfly, lladlev, Rus- 

 sell and Crusader short-stemmed stock 

 makes .t6 to $>? and select flowers as 

 much as ii'20. A few fancies reach •t.-'j 

 ]ier hundred. American Beauties are 

 more abundant and are cheaper.
