BRAMPTON, ONT. 



Without bowing the knee to the su- 

 perstitious ' ' thirteen, ' ' it must be con- 

 ceded that the meteorological condi- 

 tions of the Easter of 1913 were quite 

 in keeping with the theory of bad luck. 

 All the greenhouses in this neighbor- 

 hood suffered severely through broken 

 glass on Good Friday, and the heaviest 

 wind storm ever experienced here put 

 all the telephone and telegraph wires 

 out of order. Business was practically 

 at a standstill except for the orders 

 that were already in the hands of the 

 packers, and not a single order could 

 be received over the long distance 

 wires between 1 p. m. on Friday and 

 late on Saturday night. 



Notwithstanding this severe draw- 

 back, through which the florists suf- 

 fered possibly more than the growers, 

 the Easter trade was larger than ever 

 at the Dale Estate. The lilies and or- 

 chids, particularly, brought the highest 

 prices, in a market constantly demand- 

 ing more. W. G. P. 



FRENCH LICK, IND. 



A. L. Randall, the well known whole- 

 sale florist and dealer in florists' sup- 

 plies, of Chicago, was a guest at the 

 West Baden hotel last week and made 

 us a pleasant call. He expressed him- 

 self as pleased with the looks of the 

 French Lick greenhouses, and reported 

 he was enjoying a large southern trade. 



Mr. Wagner, of Sidney, O., one of the 

 brothers who own and carry on the 

 Wagner Park Conservatories, intro- 

 duced himself to us March 18 and re- 

 ported business good, as they have a 

 great deal of landscape work to do. He 

 was a guest during the week at the 

 French Lick Springs hotel. 



F. J. Brown, the local florist, is en- 

 joying a good trade. He is cutting 

 some unusually large and fine carna- 

 tions.

 has opened his new flower and seed 

 store, in the Hlian building.
