as a good many had hardly recovered 

 from the Easter rush. The topic was 

 affiliation with the S. A. F. A letter 

 from Secretary Young was read, in- 

 forming the club of the appointment of 

 a committee to devise ways and means 

 for affiliation, but after much discus- 

 sion action was deferred until after the 

 convention at Boston in August. Two 

 new members were elected and the club 

 voted to continue the standing prize 

 offer for the best display of window 

 boxes in each of the six sections of the 

 city. Chas. Siegwart, of Carroll, had 

 on exhibition a seedling amaryllis which 

 attracted much attention. 



Various Notes. 



The Woman's Civic League will hold 

 its annual flower mart at Mt. Vernon 

 place May 12 and extends an invitation 

 to all local florists to exhibit. The 

 committee in charge includes E. A. 

 Seidwitz and C. M. Wagner.

The Market. 



Easter day was bright and clear, in 

 spite of the weather man's prediction 

 of rain or snow. Saturday, however, 

 was cold and rainy till late in the after- 

 noon; so deliveries were made under 

 difficulties. The bad weather did not 

 appear to cause any great falling off 

 in business, as everybody had all that 

 could be attended to. In fact, some 

 of the florists were short of cut flow- 

 ers and were obliged to reject many 

 orders. Some bought heavily from Chi- 

 cago and still did not have enough. Con- 

 siderable funeral work late on Sunday 

 used up anything that' was left over. 



The local supply of cut flowers was 

 good and the quality excellent. Plants 

 of all kinds sold well, especially bulbous 

 stock, of which there was an immense 

 quantity of the finest quality. 



Various Notes. 



Julius Niednagel & Sons had a big 

 supply of plants and cut flowers and 

 did a big business. Their large force 

 was kept busy from Friday till about 

 12 o'clock on Sunday, 



Emil Niednagel is rejoicinor over the 

 arrival of a 10-pound bov, who came 

 April 6. 



The Wm. Blackman Floral Co. had 

 probably the largest Easter trade in the

firm's experience. They had fine cuts 

 of carnations and roses and also bought 

 largely from Chicago of roses, carna- 

 tions, sweet peas, etc. They quit tak- 

 ing orders on Saturday for cut flowers. 

 Their line of plants was varied and an 

 immense number were sold. Their bulb- 

 ous stock was completely sold out, as 

 was nearly every other plant. The 

 help worked continuously from early 

 Friday morning till late Sunday even- 

 ing. A large funeral kept them busy 

 after the Easter rush was over. 



J. C. Elspermann had one of the fin- 

 est lots of bulbous stock the writer ever 

 saw. The fine, large heads of hyacinths 

 were especially noticeable. His daffo- 

 dils, tulips, etc., were also extra good 

 and nearly all were cleaned out. He 

 bought heavily of roses and carnations 

 to supply the demand. 



Mrs. M. L. Doerr was exceedingly 

 busy all day Saturday and well toward 

 noon on Sunday. Her store at the start 

 was full of plants and cut flowers, near- 

 Iv all of which were sold.
