WORCESTER, MASS, 



The cash and carry plan was much 

 in evidence here throughout the Easter 

 rush. The department store competi- 

 tion is giving the florists much food for 

 thought, as cheapness in stock seems to 

 be the first thought of the public. Much 

 of the stock sold by the department 

 stores is exceedingly poor. 



Frank Sokol, College street, sold 

 4,000 geraniums for the Easter trade. 



Adshe.nd & Sons have finished plant- 

 ing all of their summer-flowering bulbs 

 and they have a large amount of other 

 stock planted. 



The weather was damp April 15, but 

 this did not retard Easter buying. 



The Fish Nursery Co. is shipping 

 stock from its Auburn nurseries by the 

 carload. E. A. 



Belvidere, 111. — Lyon & Anderson re- 

 port groat Easter business, much of 

 which they attribute to an advertise- 

 ment run in the local paper about three 

 days before Easter. Business was even 

 better than in 1921. which was consid- 

 ered a record-breaker. l<"lowers and 

 plants sold for less, but there were more 

 buyers. 



Princeton. 111.— W. E. Trimble reports 



the largest Piaster business on record. 

 His range was in full crop and every- 

 thing that could be cut by April 15 was 

 sold; although prices did not average so 

 high as in some other years, the total 

 was better. Warm weather Easter day 

 kept the cro]~' comino; and since Easter 

 the supply has exceeded the demand.
