The Market. 



Business is fearfully slack. The 

 dreary, cold weather which we have 

 had during the last week or two is more 

 or less responsible for these conditions. 

 There has been little sun, too, but stock 

 continues to arrive in the usual large 

 quantities. American Beauties are 

 quite plentiful, but move slowly. Among 

 the other roses, Hadley, Ophelia, Rus- 

 sell, Sunburst and Ward are the best 

 sellers and have great keeping quality, 

 but the prices are quite low. Carna- 

 tions stand much the same, and their 

 prices are well maintained. Lilacs sell 

 fairly well and are plentiful. Easter 

 lilies are about gone. Sweet peas are 

 improving nicely and appear to be 

 rather more plentiful. Much outdoor 

 valley arrives each day and is sold 

 cheaply. Orchids are of fine color and 

 receive a fair demand. Tulips are on 

 the wane, but sell well. Irises are com- 

 ing in fast, but do not move well. Pink 

 and blue lupines, white and yellow 

 daisies, forget-me-nots, cornflowers, 

 gypsophila and pansies sell well. The 

 shortage of smilax is felt all around. 



Various Notes. 



The Aster Candy & Flower Store is 

 doing a fairly good business. They 

 have added an icebox, which is kept 

 well filled with choice flowers. 



Despite the drenching rain of Sun- 

 day, May 16, about a dozen Syracuse 

 florists visited this city and made a 

 tour of the parks. Several members 

 of the Rochester Florists' Association 

 entertained them during their stay. 



At the recent meeting of the Flo- 

 rists' Association the plans for the 

 flower show were shown and appeared 

 to meet with favorable comment. They 

 were drawn up by H. E. Bates. The 

 flower show, which will be a part of 

 the industrial exposition, promises to be 

 more beautiful than in previous years. 

 It will occupy building 5. 



Most of the florists are booking fairly 

 good orders for June weddings.
