There are daffodils galore at the Los

 beauties being handled. Manager C.

The Market. 



Business conditions are about the 

 same as last reported, the lenten season 

 having little effect on the social calen- 

 <lar. Several large funerals last week 

 helped to clean up the surplus. 



Carnations are plentiful in all varie- 

 ties and move well. Roses are scarce, 

 -with not enough to go around, while 

 lilies, tulips and daffodils are good 

 sellers. 



In potted plants, azaleas, hyacinths 

 and tulips predominate, and the price 

 of all stock is keeping up wonderfully, 

 considering the volume. Greens are a 

 scarcity, and almost impossible to se- 

 cure on the local market. E. R. C. 



BULBOUS STOCK LATE. 



'Owing to extremely cold weather, we 

 find that our Easter bulbous stock has 

 not made the root growth that it should 

 have made at this time. We did not 

 get the bulbs covered as deeply as we 

 should have for the season, or as early. 

 They are now in a house without fire, 

 and have been all winter. Kindly ad- 

 -vise us what to do. We can put them 

 in a warm cellar that we have heat in, 

 or we can put them under benches in a 

 house with a temperature of 55 to 60 

 degrees and darken it, or we can put 

 them in another house, cover four or 

 five inches and give a little heat. The 

 tulips, we believe, will come all right, 

 but the hyacinths and daffodils have 

 only made from one-half to three- 

 fourths of an inch of root growth and 

 do not show above the soil at all.

inch loiifi. 1 am afraid it will not give 

 you much flower for Easter. Either 

 you have placed the bulbs in the soil 

 too late or have kept them too dry at 

 the root. They should all be planted 

 by November 15, and a month earlier 

 would be better. If you had good 

 roots, the tops would come all right, 

 but you can not expect good flowers 

 without plenty of active roots. I would 

 place the bulbs in a house where there 

 is a little fire heat, soak thoroughly 

 with water if not moist, and cover with 

 ashes. To have the tulips, narcissi and 

 hyacinths in flower for Easter, you 

 should have tops at least three inches 

 long by March 20. In a temperature 

 of 50 degrees at night the various bulbs 

 would then flower on time. C. W.
