manded and the result was an inade- 

 quate supply of Easter lilies. Even the 

 growers who planted a few to see how 

 affairs would go seemed to take care of 

 them in a haphazard way, and what few 

 of them had the nerve to flower at all 

 seemed to do so under protest. 



In other lines of stock there was a 

 fair supply, with an equally fair de- 

 mand at prices slightly higher than those 

 of last year. Azaleas, spiraeas, wistarias, 

 double flowering cherries and almonds in 

 pots sold readily at good figures, but 

 the public were not to be satisfied with 

 anything except the Easter lilies, and 

 such florists as had a supply sold them 

 at fancy prices. 



A few growers were patriotic and far- 

 sighted enough to realize early in the 

 season that this Easter should be no dif- 

 ferent from that of one year ago. They 

 planted the usual amounts, and great 

 were their efforts in dividing up a few 

 hundred lilies among a dozen or more 

 stores when each and every retailer was 

 willing and even anxious to purchase the 

 entire lot. 



From present indications we are to 

 have a good late spring trade, and al- 

 though the weather has been against the 

 full enjoyment of rushing business, I 

 see nothing ahead but heavy demands 

 for everything good that can be grown.

The season in the middle west has 

 been prolonged by a week of weather 

 cooler than normal at this sea^ion of the

 herbaceous stock has started into 

 growth. 



Ed Silva, state horticultural inspector 

 for Colorado, says he is receiving much 

 encouragement from nurserymen. Even 

 the doubting Thomases, he says, are be- 

 ing convinced that a certificate of in- 

 spection means money in their pockets. 



Wm. a. Peterson, Chicago, says he 

 believes that as public appreciation of 

 the peony grows, the common sorts will 

 become cheap indeed, but that it will be 

 possible to sell the finer varieties in in- 

 creasing numbers and at profitable prices. 



There is nothing the average editor 

 of a daily paper likes better than a joke

The nursery inspection bill now pend- 

 ing in the Minnesota legislature is about 

 the most loosely drawn piece of legisla-

 present form, it ever gets onto the stat-

HARDY HERBACEOUS PLANTS. 



The demand for hardy herbaceous 

 flowers is increasing rapidly for various 

 reasons; among them, a realization of 

 the fact that in planting them in large 

 numbers and in great variety a continua- 

 tion of bloom is possible to an extent 

 impossible with what is known as bed-
