Beauties 



The supply of Beauties of the medium and better 

 grades is increasing. What is particularly worth men- 

 tioning is the extra fine quality of this stock. * ; 



You will find with us the largest supply of Beauties in 

 this market. 



We will be very stroDg in Beauties for Easter. , 



Killarney Brilliant \ 



This new rose leads them all in quality and quantity. 

 Our grower is cutting thousands of them every day. It is a 

 far better flower than the old type of Killarney and a larger 

 bud. 



We certainly don't know of any other rose that shows 

 the same value, and prices are just about what you would 

 pay for other roses.

The Eastern Market. 



The change from spring back to win- 

 ter, with its snow storms and extreme 

 cold, and from winter to a semblance 

 of spring, has had the ettect of making 

 the supply of cut flowers irregular for 

 this season of the year. The demand 

 has slackened a little, making it nec- 

 essary to resort to special efforts to 

 market the cut flowers on the days 

 when the sun is bright and warm. 

 Values continue fairly good for mid- 

 Lent; the market is able to absorb 

 most of the stock at prices reasonably 

 satisfactory. Southern daffodils have 

 begun arriving in small numbers; as 

 yet their quality is only medium. 



The indications point to heavy crops 

 of all varieties of flowers for Easter. 

 It is predicted that the quality will 

 be good and prices reasonable. 



Pre-Easter Rambles. 



The Easter plants for 1914 will be 

 better and more numerous than in any 

 previous season. The larger growers 

 nave confined themselves to a smaller 

 number of species than in former years 

 and it is only on the places of tSe 

 smaller growers that greater variety
