MEBIDEN, CONN. 



The IVIarket. 



Mothers' day business was good. In 

 the early part of the week, however, 

 trade was not so brisk. At the end of 

 the week much funeral work took up 

 all roses, carnations, lilies and a lot of 

 bulbous stock and lily of the valley. 

 The general quality of the roses has 

 never been better for this season of 

 the year. Beauties, Killarneys and 

 Bichmonds deserve special mention. 

 Pink roses have been in special de- 

 mand. Carnations were never better 

 than last week. 



Mothers' day business started on Sat- 

 urday morning and continued briskly 

 until midnight. Everyone reports busi- 

 ness much bigger and better than last 

 year. Cut flowers of all kinds sold 

 well in the larger downtown stores, but 

 in the outskirts the demand was not so 

 great. This was offset, however, by the 

 number of flowering plants sold. The 

 demand for these was much larger than 

 in the past, and azaleas seemed to be 

 the favorites. Ferns were sold in big 

 numbers. Carnations were in great de- 

 mand; naturally pink and white were 

 the most sought after colors. Boses 

 were also sold in large numbers. 



This is really the first time Mothers' 

 day has been observed here to any great 

 extent. The florists seem to have been 

 ■well repaid for all efforts put forth to 

 make the day successful. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Greenbacker 

 are rejoicing over the arrival of a 

 baby girl, born May 9. We extend our 

 hearty congratulations. 



The Blatchley Co. reports a fine sale 

 of carnations on Saturday, May 13, 

 white and pink being the favorite 

 colors. 



Joseph Greenbacker had a special 

 sale last week, and the stock oflfered 

 constituted one of the best displays of 

 spring plants and flowers that he has 

 ever shown, including pansies in every 

 available color and a large variety 

 of potted plants, all in bloom. Many 

 people took advantage of this sale and 

 purchased flowers and plants for their 

 gardens. 



John Bonell reports a fine trade for 

 last week, the business being double 

 that for the same week last vear. B. 



Oklahoma City, Okla. — This city has 

 a new retail store, making four, and 

 they all seem to be doing a fair 

 business.
