AN APPEAL. 



The Morris. County Gardeners ' and Flo- 

 rists ' Society will hold the annual carna- 

 tion night March 12, at the meeting 

 rooms, Madison, N. J. We have plenty 

 of vases and fine tables, so there is room 

 for all we get. Our own boys will bring 

 all they can in the standard sorts, and we 

 would appeal to introducers through The 

 Review to send us their 1913 candidates, 

 so we can all see them and let the public 

 see them, too. There are a grand lot 

 around this year, and it would be a pity 

 to not let us see them as they actually 

 are. We will have an essay on culture, 

 too. Send all consignments in care of 

 C. H. Totty, Madison, N. J., and a full 

 dozen of us will do justice in the way of 

 staging them. Edward Reagan, Sec 'y. 



KANSAS CITY. 



The Market. 



The Lenten season as yet seems to 

 be almost forgotten and business is as 

 good as could be expected in such cold, 

 uncertain weather. The wholesalers are 

 short on everything. Roses are com- 

 ing into crop again, after a shortage 

 which has continued for five weeks. The 

 Killarneys and Richmonds will be ex- 

 ceptionally fine for Easter, and the 

 Beauties are of splendid quality. Bulb- 

 ous stock is arriving in larger quanti- 

 ties, but is only bringing a fair price. 

 Yellow seems to take the lead in the 

 color of bulbous stock, especially in 

 daffodils. Sweet peas have improved in 

 quality and increased in quantity, but 

 do not seem to move fast. Carnations 

 have advanced a little in price, and 

 they also show a marked improvement 

 in quality. Sprengeri and adiantums 

 are in better demand and the stock is 

 improving. Violets seem to drag, as 

 there are so many on the market. 



Various Notes. 



E. D. Ellsworth will have close to 

 1,800 lily plants ready for Easter, with 

 any quantity of blooms and buds which 

 look exceptionally fine. 



William Foith will have a fine crop 

 of roses and carnations for Easter. His 

 carnations are especially good — better 

 than in any previous year.
