State of Trade. 



There is little doing here; in fact, in 

 all lines everybody is complaining and 

 no matter how optimistic we may feel, 

 we cannot get away from the fact that 

 conditions are not good, with so many 

 out of work, which makes quite a differ- 

 ence in our business. 



Boses are scarce and command fair 

 prices: from 5 cents to 10 cents, the 

 cheaper grades being most in demand 

 for funeral work. 



Carnations are poor this year. The 

 majority of them are split, especially En- 

 chantress, and, in faat, both white and 

 Lawson. The former are small and the 

 latter short in the stem, which makes it 

 difficult to make good returns. Fair 

 Maid is a dead one and can only be got 

 rid of at a sacrifice. It certainly ought 



not to be grown in this section another 

 year. 



Price of Bedding Stock. 



For the first time in many ^ years the 

 florists of Rochester got together, Jan- 

 uary 15, to consider the question of ad- 

 vancing the price of bedding stock this 

 spring. In the past $1 per dozen has 

 been the price for geraniums at retail. 

 It is proposed to advance them to $1.25 

 and $1.50, according to ^rade, and other 

 things in equal proportion. Fred Vick 

 acted as chairman and a committee was 

 formed to draw up a scale of prices to 

 be submitted to the trade for their ap- 

 proval. The meeting was well attended 

 and it is to be hoped that from this gath- 

 ering others will follow and lead to the 

 organization of a Rochester Florists' 

 Club, which, for some unaccountable rea- 

 son, Rochester, now a first-class city, 

 does not possess. H. B. S.
