 It costs money to call on yon personally. Let's set toCVHiher on the mail order proposition and you saye the difference. There

The Market. 



There is an abundance of all sorts of 

 stock for Easter. One week of mod- 

 erate weather, with a great deal of 

 sunshine, has brought on quantities of 

 stock. Everything points to good 

 trade. Bulbous stock will be about 

 over after this week. Roses are greatly 

 improved by the spring sunshine and 

 the supply is abundant. Beauties are 

 excellent, but the price is high, with 

 the demand, however, increasing stead- 

 ily. Giant pink snapdragon is coming 

 into the market in big lots and is 

 finding great favor with the public. 

 The newest fad in pot covers for plants 

 is to cover the pot with green moss 

 instead of crepe paper. It gives the 

 plant a natural finish and harmonizes 

 with all colors of flowers and foliage. 

 Azaleas, genistas, ramblers, roses, rho- 

 dodendrons, lilac, begonias and Easter 

 lilies are all in good condition for 

 Easter. Tausendschon roses are excel- 

 lent. A few good pots of scilla are 

 being shown. Boston ferns, palms, etc., 

 are selling well. 



Various Notes. 



Wm. A. Adams was at home a few 

 days last week, suffering with a severe 

 cold and grip. 



Joseph Cannon, of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., 

 has joined the working force of S. A. 

 Anderson. 



The pre-Easter display at the Lenox 

 Flower Shop is unique and pleasing. 

 It consists of a miniature hillside, with 

 a log cabin on the crest. In the valley 

 below, there is a brook which babbles 

 over white pebbles and is lost to 

 view behind another cabin. Bustic 

 bridges cross the brook here and there 

 and a brood of ducklings play among 

 the flowers and shrubbery. The mo- 

 tion of the brook and the animation 

 of the ducklings are great attractions 

 to the passing throngs. 



On Palm Sunday S. A. Anderson in- 

 vited the public to see his Easter dis- 

 play at the greenhouses on Elmwood 

 avenue. Personal invitations were 

 mailed to patrons and others were scat- 

 tered broadcast. There were immense 

 crowds and each visitor was given a 

 rose. The exceedingly attractive Easter 

 baskets in an endless variety of com- 

 binations were a special feature. Com- 

 bination baskets of fruit and flowers 

 are finding favor with the public. 



W. J. T. Ivey, of the firm of Thos. 

 Ivey & Sons, Port Dover, Ont., was in 

 town last week. 



Recent visitors include E. J. Fan- 

 court, of Pennock-Meehan Co., Phila- 

 delphia; James J. Bates, Akron, 0., and 

 Walter Stroh, of Batavia, N. Y. 



E. 0. A. 



Birmingliam, Mich. — W. A. Grove, 

 who conducted the Birmingham Floral 

 Co., has gone out of business.
