 Easter goods are arriving. 



John W. Mclntyre handles the en- 

 tire product of one of the lilac spe- 

 cialists. The season for forcing this 

 beautiful flower is now on in earnest. 



Senator Heacock being absent on of- 

 ficial duties at Harri^urg, Alfred Bur- 

 ton presided over an excellent meeting 

 of the Florists' Club January 3. Mr. 

 Skidelsky's essay evoked interesting 

 discussion. Kesolutions of sympathy 

 were ordered sent to the family of J. 

 W. C'olflesh. Refreshments were served. 

 Visitors included W. S. "Adams and 

 Harry Wintzer.

Holiday business took up nearly 

 everything as fast as it was offered. 

 The darker colors were in especial de- 

 mand. Toward the end of the week 

 much funeral work used up the white 

 roses and many Paper Whites and Ro- 

 mans, which were accumulating. Prices 

 as a whole held up nicely. Beauties, 

 Killarney and Richmond were fine in 

 quality and in especial request, while 

 other varieties easily held their own. 



Carnations are quite shx of the nor- 

 mal cut for this time orthe year and 

 held up their price nicely until the lat- 

 ter part of last week, when it was 

 shaded somewhat. The supply of other 

 stock was ample and double violets ex- 

 ceeded in numbers the request for them. 

 This is also true of valley. The single 

 violet. Princess of Wales, was conspicu- 

 ous by its absence, as compared with 

 other yeais at this time. 



Poinsettias sold up about as fast as 

 they arrived, and longiflorum lilies were 

 offered in fair quantities and sold out 

 readily. Callas are not as yet an im- 

 portant factor. 



Boxwood is now oflfered again in the 

 list of green goods. The supply of other 

 decorative stock is ample.
