The Market 



The week following Easter found a 

 marked change in cut flower conditions, 

 a general decline in prices taking place, 

 carnations suffering the most. Conditions 

 continue sluggish, and far too many 

 flowers are arriving for the market's re- 

 quirements. Rosea are cleaning out fairly 

 \Vell, although the supply promises soon 

 to be excessive. Beauties are more abun- 

 dant, and select flowers are lower in

price. There has been a recession in 

 prices on practically all grades. Carna- 

 tions are selling lower than for a long 

 time, $1 per hundred and even lower 

 prices being recorded. Of course, good 

 stock sells at higher rates. Violets are 

 nearing the end. Singles are getting 

 small and pale, while doubles are dwind- 

 ling in size. The supply of these latter 

 usually lasts until May. 



Sweet peas are abundant but lower. 

 Lilies and callas move slowly. For valley 

 there is less call. The heaviest lot of in- 

 door bulbous stock is over for the season. 

 Outdoor narcissi will be ready within a 

 few days. In tulips Murillo and Gou- 

 ronne d'Or are mostly seen. Some good 

 Spanish irises and gladioli are arriving. 

 Marguerites are plentiful, yellow selling 

 higher than white. Some good mignon- 



ette, snapdragon and stocks are seen. 

 There is a fair call for green stock. 

 Trade in bedding plants is commencing, 

 but will not become active for a few 

 weeks yet. 



Florists' Club. 



The annual club banquet April 14, in 

 spite of the night being about the worst 

 of the season, a drenching rain falling 

 for many hours, was the most successful 

 the club has yet held; 175 were present. 

 The tables were beautifully decorated 

 with a profusion of choice flowers. Palms 

 from E. MacMulkin adorned the stage. 

 "William Sim, as usual, remembered every 

 lady with a handsome bunch of sweet 

 peas. 



Judge C. W. Hoitt, as a toastmaster, 

 was inimitable and repeatedly caused
