BOCHESTEB. 



The Market. 



The retailers report that business dur- 

 ing the early part of last week was 

 brisk and satisfactory but a change in 

 the weather came on Thursday, and on 

 Friday morning Eochester woke up to 

 find four inches of snow on the ground, 

 and a temperature of 26 degrees. At 

 3 o'clock the mercury reached the high- 

 est point for the day, 36 degrees. The 

 unsettled weather in the latter part of 

 the week had a somewhat depressing 

 effect on sales. Saturday business was 

 fair, but hardly up to the usual volume. 



Carnations are plentiful, and choice 

 stock is retailing at 50 cents a dozen. 

 Killarney roses are quoted at 75 cents. 

 Violets bring from 25 cents to 50 cents 

 a bunch. Hyacinths, tulips and daffo- 

 dils bring 25 cents and upward. 



Various Notes. 



George B. Hart is receiving the con- 

 gratulations of his friends on the arrival 

 of a daughter at his home on Sunday, 

 March 19. 



E. C. Campbell's new retail store, at 

 17 North street, will be opened for busi- 

 ness in a few days. This will be one of 

 the best equipped fldrists' stores in the 

 city. As a downtown point for distrib- 

 uting flowers and plants of Mr, Camp- 

 bell's own growing, it should be a suc- 

 cess from the start. E. F. E. 



CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



Easter plants are already making 

 their appearance in the Cleveland stores 

 and show up well. Inquiries for Easter 

 plants and flowers are coming in early 

 and a large number of orders are al- 

 ready booked. 



Cut flowers are plentiful, except good 

 Beauties and Eichmonds. The Killarney 

 and My Maryland coming in are excep- 

 tionally fine. Violets are not so good 

 as a few weeks ago, but there still is 

 some call for them. Valley is plentiful 

 and in good demand. 



Various Notes. 



The Jones-Eussell Co. reports several 

 weddings booked for after Easter. They 

 had the decorations for the Dell-Meyers 

 wedding last week. 



The Flower Club will hold forth at 

 the Bismarck, Friday, April 7. 



All the florists attending the Boston 

 flower show returned enthusiastic.
