The Florists' Revkw 



January 16, 1913. 



NEW ORLEANS. 



Tbe Market. 



The New Year's business of the 

 local florists was the same splendid 

 one as heretofore, especially in the 

 cut flower line. Plants in general did 

 not sell in such great quantities as at 

 Christmas. 



January 6 marked the inauguration 

 of this year's carnival season, by the 

 holding of the first ofiicial ball. Like 

 an almost endless chain, elegant balls, 

 receptions and other festivities will 

 from now on follow each other in rapid 

 succession, until the lenten season be- 

 gins. Although this period of merry- 

 9iaking is the shortest this year that 

 it can be, nevertheless it will go down 

 in history as having been as gorgeous 

 as any ever known in the city. All our 

 florists will be kept constantly busy 

 during this time, and their full forces 

 of help will be taxed to their utmost 

 capacity. As in former years, Chicago 

 will furnish the main part of the enor- 

 mous quantity of choice cut flowers of 

 all kinds used during this season. The 

 flowers received from the Chicago ship- 

 pers during the recent holidays were 

 highly satisfactory to the local buyers 

 and they all expressed the hope that 

 the flowers to be used during the car- 

 nival period will be just as satisfactory.

Although weather conditions are al- 

 most perfect, the supply of stock will 

 not be great for some weeks to come, 

 and the shortage seems to be general 

 throughout the province. 



Walter Calvert and Mark Hender- 

 son, after experiencing a highly suc- 

 cessful season, are already making ar- 

 rangements to double their glass area 

 in the coming spring. The Dale Estate 

 is also contemplating a further exten- 

 sion of its premises. At the last men- 

 tioned establishment a large pumping 

 station, 25x60 feet, has just been com- 

 pleted, for the purpose of forcing ma- 

 nure water from large cement tanks 

 through special piping, distributed over 

 the greenhouses. Far better results are 

 hoped for in connection with this im- 

 proved system. 



T. W. Duggan, manager of the Dale 

 Estate, was again elected mayor of the 

 town by acclamation last week, and 

 Wm. J. Beatty, an employee of the 

 same firm, was appointed deputy reeve 

 of the municipality. W. G. P.
