say they will have only light cuts of 

 roses and quite a few assert that car- 

 nations will be on the short side, but 

 the buyers refuse to take these reports 

 seriously, declaring that no grower 

 ever has acknowledged that he would 

 have a big crop to send to his com- 

 mission man. The wholesalers appear 

 to be confident that if any one item 

 runs short there will be plenty of other 

 stock to take its place. 



Apparently there will be no oversup- 

 ply of long-stemmed lilies. Most of 

 the growers are repeating their expe- 

 rience of recent years, when a large 

 proportion of the bulbs gave short 

 stems. The sentiment is that there 

 will be enough medium stems, none 

 too many long stems, but an oversup- 

 ply of short lilies. 



Mr. Bryant Betires. 



When Paul M. Bryant purchased the 

 stock interest of Mrs. E. H. Hunt and 

 Charles M. Dickinson in the E. H. 

 Hunt corporation, January 1, a con- 

 tract was made which, owing to un- 

 foreseen difficulties, Mr. Bryant was 

 not able to fulfill. The stock, there- 

 fore, has reverted to Mrs. Hunt and 

 Mr. Dickinson, who have returned to 

 Mr. Bryant the moneys paid in on 

 the contract and Mr. Bryant has with- 

 drawn from the business. C. M. Dick- 

 inson, who had intended to enter an- 

 other line, is again in charge of the 

 business. 



Various Notes. 



Hunt Bros., Park Ridge, who spe- 

 cialize on some of the lesser grown 

 flowers, have had exceptional success 

 with sweet peas this season, but Fred 

 Hunt says that the prices have not 

 been such as to leave much profit. 

 A big bunch of Helen Lewis and 

 Christmas Pink brought to The Re- 

 view office last week drew a favor- 

 able comment from every visitor. 



A. Henderson & Co. have moved 

 two carloads of tuberoses during the 

 last twelve days and a third car is 

 on the way. 



Winterson's Seed Store is preparing 

 for a big retail trade next week, on 

 Easter plants, after which the retail 

 seed season is expected to open.
