 visitors went to the New York show, 

 accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. J. G. 

 Neidinger, Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Karins, 

 and George Hampton. 



ST. LOUIS. 



The Market. 



Last week the local wholesale mar- 

 kets were in excellent condition, as 

 there was plenty of first-class stock 

 to be had at reasonable prices. The 

 retailers did not do a rushing business, 

 only the downtown florists buying 

 heavily at cheap prices in order to put 

 on bargain sales. As Lent has stopped 

 all large social functions, the west end 

 florists have little to do in this line. 

 There were large shipments of south- 

 ern daffodils coming in all the week, and 

 they sold as low as $2 and $3 per 

 thousand, greatly hurting the sale of 

 the locally grown greenhouse stock. 



Monday, March 15, white carnations 

 were up to $3 and $4 per hundred, as 

 the demand was heavy for these to be 

 colored for St. Patrick's day stock. 

 The colored carnations run from $1.50 

 to $3, and there are plenty of them. 

 Roses, too, have been quite plentiful, 

 but the demand for these seems excel- 

 lent, especially for fancy stock. Sweet 

 peas and violets dragged a little last 

 week at reduced prices. Snapdragons 

 do not sell well of late. Some fancy 

 stock is coming in. Bulbous stock 

 dragged considerably, and the supply 

 was large in valley, Paper Whites, daf- 

 fodils, jonquils, freesias and Romans. 

 Everything in the green line is in 

 plenty at usual prices. 



Club Meeting. 



The St. Louis Florists' Club held its 

 monthly meeting March 11. It was one 

 of the most interesting and best at- 

 tended meetings held for many months. 

 The attraction was the carnation and 

 novelty exhibition held in conjunction 

 with the meeting. As President Bour- 

 det was unable to attend. Vice-president 

 Wells presided over the meeting and 

 did his work well. The attendance 

 numbered fifty and all say they spent 

 a most interesting afternoon. The 

 meeting, as usual, was held in Odd Fel- 

 lows' hall, but the exhibition was 

 staged at the market of the Windier 

 Wholesale Floral Co., 1310 Pine street. 



The committee that handled the re- 

 cent club dance was as yet unable to 

 make a report, as many still are hold- 

 ing on to their tickets and have made
