now that vegetable gardening had super- 

 seded flower gardening, the association 

 considered it advisable this year to dis- 

 pense with the feature. 



It would seem that under such circum- 

 stances, with amateurs giving their at- 

 tention to the production of vegetables 

 instead of flowers, the demand for flo- 

 rists' flowers would be increased. At 

 any rate, at each establishment visited 

 I found things running as smoothly as 

 if the President and the Kaiser were 

 playing a sociable game of golf instead 

 of a game of war. The opinions of the 

 tradesmen on this subject were substan- 

 tially the same, and if an average opin-

 Hill occupied with a handsome wreath 

 of red roses and sweet peas, and her 

 reply to my question was: "Well, we 

 see no effects of the war on our business. 

 There may be some economy practiced, 

 in such things as corsage bouquets and 



decorations for large dinners and recep- 

 tions, but on the whole we find business 

 normal and do not expect any great
