which are appropriate, suggestive of their use, and harmonize with O 

 the quality of flowers packed, are looked for by particular florists, 

 when purchasing their requirements in Folding Paper Boxes.

sale as pot plants and four houses for 

 cutting next week. They began cut- , 

 ting about March 2o, but will have the 

 bulk of the lilies on time for Easter. 

 Originallj' there were 34,000 bulbs. John 

 Kruchten is their sales a^ent. 



After a fortnight's illness John Sin- 

 ner reappeared at the store March 28. 



A 4-8tory building on South Water 



street, which chanced to be vacant, has 



been leased by Winterson 's Seed Store 



for the storage of hardy stock during 



J the spring season. 



This will be John Zech's twentieth 

 Easter in wholesale cut flowers. There 

 have been a lot of changes, but he 

 says the greatest has been in the quan- 

 tity of flowers handled in the Chicago 

 market. 



Ma{rch 31 C. L. Washburn and the 

 Basse'tt & Washburn store staff sent 

 telegfapBic^elicitations to O. P. Bas- 

 sett, at Pasadena, it being his seventy- 

 nintly "birthday anniversary. 



Asi; showing how far spring has ad- 

 vanced, Spaulding & Son, at Villa 

 Ridge, 111., now are shipping jonquils 

 in quantity. They report to E. E. 

 Pieser, of Kennicott Bros. Co., that 

 the peony prospect never was better. 



A. L. Vaughan is planning a trip to 

 California at an early date. 



A visitor last week was J. K. An- 

 drews, Elgin, 111., manufacturer of lawn 

 and cemetery vases. He still carries 

 his left arm in a sling, as the result of 

 a fall on the ice. 



The last of Adam Zender's present 

 batch of Sunburst rooted cuttings were 

 potted last week, while this pioneer was 

 suffering from an attack of lumbago. 

 For nearly thirty-two years he has been 

 a grower in his present neighborhood, 

 first as a truck gardener, and with roses 

 his specialty for the last twenty-two 

 years. 



H. N. Bruns is one of those who can- 

 not be comfortable unless everything 

 about him is in apple-pie order, but he 

 has been fairly well content since he 

 opened his rebuilt store. His azaleas 

 are excellent this Easter. 



The George Wittbold Co. has three 

 ranges of glass in operation this Eas- 

 ter, including rented houses at Des 

 Plaines, but Louis Wittbold says he is 

 sure the spring trade will take it all 

 and call for more. 



Media, Pa. — Alfred Broadbelt, super- 

 intendent at the Media cemetery, has a 

 fine line of Easter stock and his sweet 

 peas are looking well.

The Market. 



Pittsburgh has been having rather a 

 poor class of weather. Rain and warm 

 weather are not the best for growing 

 cut flowers. Stock of all kinds is more 

 plentiful every day, especially Beauties. 

 For the first time this year Beauties 

 have been above the demand. The 

 wholesale houses have been busy han- 

 dling the increased supply of stock and 

 the prices have held up well. It has
