The Market. 



While the Easter of 191.3 was a bless- 

 injj; financially, it was not smooth sail- 

 ing all the time. Among the growers, 

 especially those who grow Easter lilies, 

 it was a matter of strenuous pushing; 

 among the wholesalers, with the ever- 

 increasing shipping trade, it also meant 

 incessant hustle, and most of the retail- 

 ers worked through Friday and Satur- 

 day night, so that the end was near at 

 hand by noon on Easter Sunday, at 

 which time little or nothing of any con- 

 sequence was left unsold. Weather con- 

 ditions, up to and including Thursday, 

 were ideal, being fairly warm, with 

 plenty of sunshine. On Friday, from sun- 

 rise to sunset, a disagreeable wind, ac- 

 comi>anied by snow, kept the shoppers at 

 home. On Saturday the sun again put 

 in an appearance ami, even though it 

 was cool, business was rushing. This 

 dark sjtell also kejjt back stock which 

 otherwise would have been fit to sell. 



This Easter again proved to be a 

 plant day, with the call for Harrisii, 

 both cut and in pots, somewhat on the 

 decline. In cut flowers the main call 

 was for violets and spring stock, such 

 as sweet peas and the various bulbous 

 lines. Gooil roses were scarce and the 

 supply of carnations was just about 

 equal to the demand. Several local 

 growers of carnations came into crop 

 just about the opening of Lent and the 

 consequence was that the crop was gone 

 before tHe extra demand was at hand.
