Easter Trade. 



An enormous business was done. Com- 

 mencing in real earnest Tuesday after- 

 noon, it culminated in a run of trade 

 on Saturday that was by far the largest 

 ever known in this city. Some say it 

 was a half greater than ever before; but 

 in this all are agreed, it was far and 

 away ahead of any previous Easter. The 

 sale of cut flowers was certainly splen- 

 did. All day and evening Saturday the 

 roses and carnations melted away and 

 when midnight came the ice-boxes were 

 empty. Carnations were most in demand; 

 every customer wanted them, and they 

 went fast. In fact, everything found 

 buyers and at the usual good Easter 

 prices. The way flowering plants sold 

 was simply a revelation to the trade; it 

 seemed impossible to satisfy the demand 

 for them. Azaleas, spiraeas, ramblers, 

 tulips, hyacinths, cinerarias, in fact, any- 

 thing in good bloom found places at 

 good prices. It was a great trade, and 

 the craft is indeed happy. Zero. 



Wilmington, Del. — H. H. Potter was 

 very successful with his Easter crops, 

 everything being in fine shape, and did 

 a larger business than ever at this season. 



YOUNGSTOWN, 0. — The Lockhart estab- 

 lishment, of which Geo. McLean is man- 

 ager, had so large a stock for Easter 

 that an annex was rented at 12 South 

 Phelps street. 



Denison, Tex. — E. Farley, of the 

 Denison Greenhouses, says business in 

 March was nearly three times as heavy 

 as in that month last year. Stock is in 

 very good shape. 



OSHKOSH, Wis. — The Miles Co. had 

 good lilies for Easter, and could have 

 sold more of them in pots. John Nelson 

 did not have his usual stock of bulbous 

 stock, hyacinths in particular being too 

 early. He had a very heavy trade. 



Providence, B. I. — On April 5 fire in 

 the building occupied by T. F. Keller 

 & Sons did $50,000 damage, the florists 

 escaping with $1,000 loss, covered by in- 

 surance. They were compelled to seek a 

 temporary location for the Easter busi- 

 ness. 



Washington, Pa. — Jos. H. Seaman & 

 Co. report the Easter business the best 

 they ever had. Their supply was larger 

 than ever and they just about cleaned up, 

 at prices a little better than last year 

 because of the high quality of stock. 

 The demand was mostly for flowering 

 plants.
