The qualfiy is as good as can be ex- 

 pected this early in the season. Paper 

 Whites are fine, but the market is still 

 overstocked. Callas and Easter lilies 

 are good and find a ready sale. 



There is also a good stock of plants, 

 which are selling fairly well. It is an 

 agreeable surprise to note the way 

 Primula malacoides is selling this year. 

 It was hard to dispose of them in 

 former seasons, but this year every- 

 body seems to want it. There is a 

 shortage in good araucarias. Some ex- 

 tra fine pots of Freesia Purity are seen. 



Various Notes. 



J. A. Valentine has been attending 

 the convention of the American Carna- 

 tion Society in Buffalo. He is now 

 visiting in New York. 



Alphonse Hoyer recently lost one of 

 his brothers, who died at St. Joseph 

 hospital of blood poisoning. 



Miss Avery Edwards, who has been 

 ill for several days, is again at her 

 desk in the office of the Park Floral
