In several respects April was an ex- 

 traordinary month. The weather office 

 reported a rainfall of 5.36 inches, the 

 greatest for any April since 1883, The 

 average temperature was 49 degrees, the 

 lowest average for the month since 

 1896. There was only one clear day, 

 April 'J8, and rain fell on twenty-four 

 days during the month. It is doubtful 

 if the records back to 1871 show such a 

 combination of unfavorable weather 

 features. It is no wonder tlie spring is 

 opening extremely late. 



Growers of bedding stock had a dull 

 month in th.at line. The establishments 

 handling potted plants and cut stock, 

 however, report a good business — -the 

 best April for several years, is the com- 

 mon report. This is encouraging, con- 

 sidering the weather conditions and that 

 the nation entered into a war early in 

 the month. No one is idle who is willing 

 to work, and wage scales are unusually 

 high. Large sums are distributed in 

 pay rolls, and some of this money finds 

 its way into the hands of the florists. 

 Cool weather has kept the stock in prime 

 condition, and the roses and carnations 

 are excellent. In potted blooming 

 plants hydrangeas and roses lead. Neph- 

 rolepis ferns are scarce; so is asparagus. 

 Sweet i)eas are plentiful and good. Daf- 

 fodils are still offered in limited quan- 

 tities. Branches of crabapple and cherry 

 blooms are seen everywhere.
