WHOLESALE GROWER OF CUT FLOWERS 



30 E. Randolph Street, - CHiCAGO, ILL. 



Mention I'he Kpview wbea vou write 



excellent quality and cut a big figure, 

 and there were more of these sold this 

 year than ever before. The supply was 

 large and the quality of every shipment 

 could hardly have been better. There 

 was a noticeable absence of the usual 

 large quantities of pickled material. 

 Roses were more plentiful than had been 

 anticipated, and some excellent stock 

 was to be seen. Q. 



ST. LOUIS. 



The Market. 

 The market during the week follow- 

 ing Easter was in a condition of over- 

 supply. Every wholesale house was 

 loaded down with all kinds of stock 

 and, judging from the buying done by 

 the retailers, trade was not heavy. The 



bulk of the sales was in white stock, so 

 there must have been plenty of funeral 

 designs to work up. 



The uptown store men have about 

 completed repairing the damage caused 

 by the hail storm and their show houses 

 are again filled with blooming and dec- 

 orative plants. The downtown florists 

 say they have had a splendid week in 

 transient trade. Sweet peas are carried 

 in great lots. The wholesalers say that 

 the demand was quite good on carna- 

 tions, sweet peas and roses, but, as all 

 of them were loaded down with these, 

 the sales were far from clean. 



In lilies, Harrisii, candidums and au- 

 ratums are most plentiful. Callas are 

 almost a glut. Valley, tulips and snap- 

 dragons are of fine quality. All greens 

 are plentiful and sell well. 



Various Notes. 



Monday, May 1, the St. Louis Retail 

 Florists' Association will hold its 

 monthly meeting in Knights of Colum- 

 bus hall at 8 p. m. President Sanders 

 says there are a few important ques- 

 tions to be disposed of and he wants a 

 full attendance. 



A. Miller, representing the Skidelsky 

 & Irwin Co., Philadelphia, spent part 

 of last week with the trade on his way 

 home from a successful southern trip. 



James J. Karins, of Henry A. Dreer, 

 Philadelphia, spent his Easter in St. 

 Louis in company with his friend, 

 Frank A. Weber. Mr. Weber is surely 

 "It" when it comes to entertaining.
