The market since last Sunday has stiffened considerably. The demand came with St. Patrick's Day and the wearing of greened carnations is becom- ing a fad more and more every year. West End retailers as well as down- town ones spoke of the increased demand. There were during the week also many store openings and cut flowers and floral arrangements used thereat helped to swell the demand. Carnations sold well at and $2. Violets are daily becom- ing less plentiful, and it is thought an- other week will finish them, although per- haps the cooler weather will prolong them some. Stock in general arrived less freely. The plantsmen are beginning to get around and the flower stands at the market are daily beginning to wear the appearance of spring. Easter is only four weeks off and retailers are look- ing around for their supply of lilies and other blooming plants. Sweet peas are more plentiful and soon these will take the place of violets for street wear. NOTES. John Bentzen, son of Adolph Bentzen, of the Bentzen Floral Co., together with his partner, Joe Koer, aside from his floral business, is dealing in squabs. John is quite a pigeon connoisseur and he claims it is a very profitable business. The Horticultural Society will hold a fall show in November and the prelim- inary premium list will be out in a few days. Copies may be had on application to Secretary
