The Market. 



The hard rain Easter morning put a 

 quietus on the flower business. This 

 probably would have been one of the 

 best Easters yet, had it not been for the 

 rain. Trade was good Saturday and it 

 seemed as though everything that 

 looked like a flower would be cleaned 

 up by the following noon. But about 

 6 a. m. on Sunday the rain began to 

 pour down and kept it up all day. 



Stock of all kinds was plentiful this 

 year. Of Easter lilies there were more 

 than enough to go around. The cut 

 blooms brought $3 per dozen. Pot lilies 

 had a good sale, bringing 25 cents for 

 a flower or bloom. Of bulbous stock 

 there was, as usual, more than enough. 

 American Beauties had a good call, 

 though the quality was not the best. 

 Boses were of good quality and sold 

 well, with prices ranging from $2 to $4 

 per dozen. Carnations moved well at 

 from $1 to $1.50 per dozen. Hudson 

 river violets wtre of poor quality and a 

 great many arrived in bad shape. The 

 home-grown violets were of better qual- 

 ity and found ready sale. Valley and 

 sweet peas found a quick sale in cor- 

 sages. Pot plants probably sold better, 

 than cut flowers. The medium priced 

 plants had the call. Plants ranging 

 from $1 to $2.50 sold well. 



Various Notes. 



Baur & Steinkamp have been cutting 

 some of the best snapdragons seen in 

 this market this winter. 



The Indiana florists who are going to 

 the New York show have arranged to 

 leave via the New York Central at 6:15 

 p. m., April 5. Among those who are 

 going are Adolph Baur, Fred Dorner, 

 Mr. and Mrs. Walter Coles, Mr. and 

 Mrs. Henry Rieman, George Wiegand, 

 Mr. and Mrs. Vesey, Irwin Bertermann 

 and E. Kester. A rate of $16.25 for one 

 way has been secured. Adolph Baur, 

 secretary of the American Carnation 

 Society, received word from the secre- 

 tary of the English Perpetual Flower- 

 ing Carnation Society that three repre- 

 sentatives of the English society would 

 attend our show. 



The April meeting of the State Flo- 

 rists' Association will be held in Port- 

 land, Ind., with W. Frank & Sons. This 

 meeting had been announced to be held 

 with Stuart & Haugh, in Anderson, but 

 the society will meet in Anderson at a 

 later date. H. L. W.

If you contemplate paintiDg your houses this year it will be well for you to 



investigate the merits of 



NY SPECIAL GREENHOUSE WHITE LEAD PAINT

 estates and public parks. I have Increased my plant to take care of the d emands made 

 upon me for this paint by florists in all parts of the country. The LUTTON reputation 

 for high-class material is back of this product. Send for a sample free of cost, and then 

 you will send your order. We also furnish materials for the complete erection of modem

 to this fact.
