at 15 cents are shown. The retail stores 

 are asking 15 cents and 20 cents, a few 

 25 cents. 



H. Bayersdorfer & Co. announce that 

 they have received, through the efforts 

 of F. H. Harjes, Memorial day supplies 

 in unexpectedly large numbers on the 

 steamer Samueldyke, which docked this 

 week, a great achievement. 



Macaw Bros, have done well with 

 their Scottii ferns, their gardenias and 

 their asparagus. 



The Floracroft Greenhouses of Walter 

 P. Stokes have sold practically all their 

 Easter plants. 



Charles E. Meehan has repeatedly 

 called attention to the fact that the 

 wholesalers can sell all the flowers pro- 

 duced at some price; it is for the grow- 

 ers to say when that price goes below 

 cost of production. 



Phil IS frequently asked, "Why don't 

 you come to see mef " This occurs fre- 

 quently before Easter. Phil always is 

 glad to call on anyone who asks him. 

 So far this season every invitation has 

 been accepted. 



Hope you have a great Easter.

The Market. 



Cold, wintry weather, accompanied 

 by snow storms, set in last week, and 

 the cloudy days have cut off the large 

 supply of roses and carnations. Bulb- 

 ous stock also has been affected, but 

 not so severely. Trade conditions were 

 not so good last week as during the 

 previous week and it is believed 

 that this is due to the pre-Easter sea- 

 son, as there is not much social activity 

 during the last days of Lent. The re- 

 tailers, however, have been rushed with 

 funeral work. 



The Easter stock in the local green- 

 houses is in the best of shape and the 

 growers are well pleased with the pros- 

 pects for business. Rhododendrons, 

 spiraeas, lilacs and azaleas were seen 

 in the downtown stores last week. The 

 market affords fine Spencer sweet peas, 

 single and double violets, snapdragons, 

 pansies, mignonette, forget-me-nots> 

 Narcissus poeticus and all bulbous 

 stock. It is hoped by several members 

 of the trade that this will be a cut 

 flower as well as a plant Easter.

 rambler roses, lilacs. Rhododendron
