The Market. 



Since Easter, trade has been fair only. 

 Stock is quite plentiful and of good 

 quality, and outdoor narcissi are to be 

 had in large quantities. Easter lilies 

 were pretty well cleaned up for Easter 

 and are not more than enough to go 

 around. Valley and lilacs are also 

 scarce, while violets are not of the best 

 quality. Beauties and roses of all kinds 

 are good stock. 



Various Notes. 



The Smith & Young Co. will soon 

 open a downtown store for the benefit 

 of its wholesale trade. This fifm be- 

 lieves it can give its customers better 

 service with such a store. The idea is 

 to carry a complete line of florists' sup- 

 plies, also to handle the entire output 

 of its greenhouses through this store. 

 Arrangements have been made with a 

 number of local, as well as several well 

 known outside growers, to consign their 

 stock to the new store. Herman Junge 

 is to be in charge. 



Walter Hanson, formerly with E. A. 

 Nelson, but of late with Poehlmann 

 Bros. Co., spent a few days in the city 

 last week. After a two weeks' vaca- 

 tion, Mr. Hanson is to take a position 

 with the Chicago Carnation Co. 



Sidney Smith says he is going out of 

 the chicken business and is going to 

 devote all his time to raising fancy car- 

 nations. 



Mr. Koontz, with the McGregor Bros. 

 Co., of Springfield, O., spent a day call- 

 ing on the trade last week. 



A. Wiegand & Sons got in a large 

 shipment of palms from Belgium re- 

 cently. H. L. W. 



BBOCKTON, MASS. 



"Trade was exceptionally good here 

 at Easter," reports W. W, Hathaway. 

 Indeed, his Easter trade was the best 

 he ever had, and this in spite of the 

 fact that many dry goods stores and 

 markets were handling both plants and 

 cut flowers. Lilies easily led all other 

 pot plants in popularity. The quality 

 of these was fine, but most of them 

 were a little too dwarf. Azaleas, ram- 

 blers, bulbous pans and other plants all 

 sold well. In cut flowers carnations, 

 narcissi and roses sold best; other va- 

 rieties moved slowly. Churches this 

 year decorated more than usual, thus 

 helping business. Since Easter, trade 

 has been exceptionally good.
