The Florists*^ Review

The Market. 



Several sunny days have helped the 

 growers wonderfully in forcing their 

 Easter plants and cut flowers. Flowers 

 of all kinds are in fine condition and 

 stock is plentiful. We have bright 

 prospects for Easter and think it will 

 be a record-breaker. Azaleas, rhododen- 

 drons, tulips, hyacinths, daffodils, cin- 

 erarias, deutzias and all other bloom- 

 ing plants that one could desire can 

 be found in their most radiant colors in 

 any of the greenhouses in the city. As 

 to cut flowers, roses are plentiful, with 

 good color and stem. Carnations are in 

 good supply and the demand enough to 

 take care of the crop. Long-stemmed 

 American Beauties were quite scarce 

 last week. The fine grade of sweet peas 

 on the market, especially the Spencer 

 varieties, has decreased the sale of vio- 

 lets to some extent. Snapdragons are 

 in fine crop, but as yet the demand is 

 not good. Bulbous stock of all kinds 

 is fine and brings a good price. Lilies 

 are in good supply and sell well. 



Various Notes. 



J. Jackson and J. Johnson, who have 

 been held by local authorities for pass- 

 ing bogus checks on florists, were sen- 

 tenced to the state penitentiary by 

 Judge Brough, of the Common Pleas 

 court. 



William Feniger has a number of ex- 

 tra clerks engaged for the great rush. 

 He told the writer that he felt it in 

 his bones that this week will be a 

 record-breaker. 



Mrs. E. Suder has her conservatory 

 decorated most beautifully with many 

 new varieties of rose plants. The 

 conservatory is an excellent place for 

 a fine display. A large fountain in the 

 center, with goldfish around the base, 

 gives the room the appearance of a 

 palace garden. 



John Helmer has severed his connec- 

 tions with Harry Heinl. The call of 

 city life was too strong for Mr. Helmer, 

 after seventeen years of employment 

 with Mr. Heinl 'at the West Toledo 

 branch. 



Metz & Bateman and .Tohn Barrow & 

 Son have rented extra stores in the 

 downtown district to afford facilities 

 for handling the Easter trade. 



Jacob Helmer, chauffeur for Miss 

 Helen Patten, has purchased a car and 

 contemplates engaging in the jitney 

 business, which is a predonjinent idea 

 in Toledo at the moment. 



George Schramm, of Schramm Bros., 

 has resumed his duties at the store after 

 a severe attack of pneumonia.
