The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



April 7, 1910. 



NEW BEDFORD, MASS. 



The Market. 



Easter trade for 1910 was a dandy. 

 Everyone is well satisfied with the busi- 

 ness done. Plants were most in demand 

 and prices were good. Lilies were none 

 too plentiful; they sold at 25 cents per 

 bloom or bud. Azaleas sold well at 75 

 cents up to $2 or $3. Tulips in pots sold 

 well, bringing from 50 cents up, and daf- 

 fodils went at about the same price. 



Tulips, daffodils, Paper Whites and all 

 bulbous stock sold fairly well. As cut 

 flowers these sold well at 50 cents and 

 60 cents per dozen, and double tulips at 

 75 cents per dozen. Carnations sold 

 fairly well at 75 cents per dozen and some 

 at $1 per dozen. Boses retailed at $2 

 per dozen, snapdragons at $1 per dozen 

 and sweet peas at $1 per hundred blooms. 



The weather was ideal for plant and 

 flower delivery. 



Taken all in all, it seems that the Eas- 

 ter trade exceeded that of last year. 

 Everyone was tired, but also happy and 

 well satisfied. 



Trade has been good during the last 

 week. Funeral work is fairly good. Car- 

 nations retail at 50 cents per dozen, roses 

 at $1.50 per dozen and sweet peas at 75 

 cents and $1 per hundred blooms. Vio- 

 lets are in fairly good demand; $1 per 

 hundred, retail, is the general price. Cal- 

 las bring $2 per dozen and snapdragons 

 $1 per dozen. 



Various Notes. 



' E. H. Chamberlain says his stock was 

 cleaned out. He is well satisfied with the 

 business done. 



William P. Peirce had a magnificent 

 display of plants, bulbous stock, etc., 

 which was well cleaned out by Sunday 

 noon. He was not able to get hold of 

 enough violets. 



W. H. Davenport, although he had a 

 next door neighbor, in a dry goods store, 

 who was selling lilies at 17 cents each 

 flower, had no difficulty in disposing of 

 his stock. 



J. H. Cleary kept his handsome deliv- 

 ery wagon on the go all the time. 



E. H. Woodhouse had some elegant bul- 

 bous stock. W. L. 



Grand Rapids, Mich. — Freyling & 

 Mendels are building an additional green- 

 house. 



A Better Water Sopply 



is what you will need when 

 the dry, hot summer fol- 

 lows this long winter, and 

 the best obtainable is a 

 Standard Pamplng Engine 

 iKscauso it talfes the water 

 from tlie source of supply 

 and puts it into the pipe 

 line by direct pressure. 



This is the simplest, most 

 reliable and cheapest way 

 of doing your watering.
