TORONTO. 



The Market 



Business has been about up to the 

 average. While nobody is boasting 

 about the many millions he has cleared 

 up, there is no one who has had to make 

 a compromise with his creditors, so we 

 would conclude that business is in what 

 might be called a very healthy condition. 

 We note that carnations have been on the 

 whole more plentiful this season than 

 ever before, and there is a feeling that 

 perhaps the greenhouses are going up 

 faster than the requirements demand; 

 this may or may not be the case, but 

 we note that some very cheap stuff has 

 been sold by our department stores and 

 others that handle cut flowers in large 

 quantities. 



The Easter supply of cut flowers 

 seems to be quite a problem to the 

 growers at present, and it is hard to 

 make any reasonable forecast as to 

 what the supply will be. One thing we 

 feel sure of, that roses and carnations 

 will be plentiful. We note one of our 

 largest growers making an effort to get 

 the large growers of Easter lilies to- 

 gether and make a fixed price. But 

 some say that when valley is wholesaled 

 so that the retailer can sell it for ten 

 cents per. dozen there is not much hope 

 for the prices being maintained on 

 Easter lilies should the grower get stuck. 



Various Notes. 



During the week a couple of large 

 funerals have used large quantities of 

 flowers. One procession was headed by 

 three wagons containing the flowers. 

 These wagons belonged to one of our 

 city florists and were placarded on both 

 nsides with iiis name. 



A visit during the week to a number 

 of greenhouses in and around the city 

 showed stuff in flne, healthy condition, 

 especially the roses. The roses of the 

 Toronto Floral Co. were never better 

 at this season of the year and promise 

 some very fine stuff between now and 

 Easter. This firm is contemplating put- 

 ting up more glass the coming season 

 and re-building the present carnation 

 houses. They intend to discontinue grow- 

 ing carnations aad grow roses in larger 

 quantities. 



W. J. Lawrence's place is in flne con- 

 dition and, while his roses are some- 

 what off crop, yet the prospects are 

 favorable. Cajnations with him are dp: 

 ing fine, bulbous stock excellent. ,
