ROCHESTER, N. Y, 



The Market, 



Early summer temperatures were re- 

 corded during the greater part of last 

 week, the highest being 82 degrees in the 

 sun. It was apparent that this was gen- 

 eral in the east, judging from the large 

 supply of roses shipped from this quar- 

 ter. Not for a period of twenty' or more 

 years has such weather been recorded at 

 this time of the year. The month of 

 March was exceptionally warm and April 

 had been likewise until April 9, when a 

 sharp frost, without doubt, did much 

 damage to the fruit trees and shrubbery. 



Business last week was good indeed 

 and the greater part of the heavy sup- 

 ply was worked off in a satisfactory 

 manner. The street venders were re- 

 sponsible for clearing a large amount of 

 surplus stock and each day rendered the 

 wholesale market practically clean by 

 night. 



In roses about everything in season 

 was seen, and cleaner, finer stock would 

 be hard to find at this time of the year. 

 Carnations were also good and in fair 

 supply. Easter lilies were in supply 

 enough to meet the demand. Sweet 

 peas were plentiful, particularly so in 

 the medium grades. The quality through- 

 out was good. Snapdragons were not 

 overplentiful. There was, however, a 

 good demand for them. Callas were also 

 in good supply and sold well. There was 

 a good supply of pansies, but no particu- 

 lar sale for them was noticed. There was 

 plenty of valley on hand. White and 

 yellow daisies were plentiful and sold 

 readily. Calendulas were selling well 

 and the supply was about equal to the 

 demand. Gardenias and orchids did not 

 seil well. Sweet alyssum was found use- 

 ful in design work, which was heavy last 

 week. 



Various Notes. 



Artistic decorations were seen at the 

 policemen 's annual ball, held at the 

 Armory Monday, April 4. Great quanti- 

 ties of flowers and palms were used, as 

 well as a big supply of wild smilax. 

 Corsages of violets, about 12.5 in all, 

 were sent to the patronesses by the com- 

 mittee. George T. Boucher did the deco- 

 rations and supplied the corsages. 



The Woodlawn Nursery Co. reports an 

 exceptionally busy season this year.
