The Sarcoxie peony fields, which arc 

 known throughout the country and at- 

 tract thousands of sightseers during 

 the harvest season, are expected to 

 bloom about May 1 this year. The 

 Sarcoxie peonies are shipped to all 

 parts of the country and occupy more 

 than fifty acres of specially prepared 

 ground. The crop was ruined last year 

 by a hail storm about a week before the 

 blooms came out. The loss was approxi- 

 mately $25,000. J. E. K.

The Market. 



Business the week following the rusli 

 of Easter appeared to be rather quiet. 

 There was a good demand for design 

 work, but the warm weather affected 

 the sale of cut flowers. Stock was 

 plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



Toronto florists have had a chance of 

 comparing the returns this year with 

 last year's figures and have been agree- 

 ably surprised at the result. 



During the week, I visited Hamilton 

 and found that the florists there en- 

 joyed a good Easter. They had been 

 well supplied with plants and, gener- 

 ally speaking, all were sold. Mr. 

 Brown, of the Arbor Florist, has a beau- 

 tiful store just completed. In addition 

 to tlie main store, he has opened ;i 

 branch in one of the department stores 

 and did a big business at the branch at 

 Easter. 



Retail florists have been advised not 

 to collect tlie sales tax on design work. 

 Toronto and Montreal florists have not 

 been collecting it. A test case is being 

 tried at Ottawa to see if florists are lia- 

 ble, but the feeling among Toronto flo- 

 rists is that they arc not. 



The program of the annual conven- 

 tion of the Canadian Florists' and Gar- 

 deners' Association, at Peterborough, 

 in August, is taking shape and it is ex- 

 pected that there will be a large at- 

 tendance. It is hoped that there will 

 be a large representation from south of 

 the border. J. J. H.
