A scarcity of roses still prevails and also a shortage in carnations, lilies and fancy sweet peas, although medium and short sweet peas are slightly glutted, the latter bringing 50 cents to $1, while fancies make $ Business is exceptionally good, coun- ter trade being fine. All the retailers proclaimed Saturday, March 10, the best day enjoyed in a long time. Funeral, corsage and decorative work have also been unusual, the latter being due to several conventions, important banquets, •etc. Roses are bringing from $3 to $15; medium grade carnations bring $2 and $3, with fancies at $4. Smaller flowers and spring stock take well, including jonquils, tulips, hyacinths, freesias, sweet peas, violets, marguerite daisies, mignonette and calendulas. The freesia season is about over, however, and good stock is not abundant. Potted plants are in good favor and are also of good quality. Greens are still scarce, with smilax bringing $2 a dozen. Various Notes. Karl Sonnenschmidt, of the Smith & Young Co., has taken a trip to Florida and while there intends to investigate the southern green situation. August Duderstadt again is with Wie- gand's Sons Co. The Bertsch Floral Co., of Greens- burg, has discontinued business. The Claypool Hotel Florist has been enjoying an exceptional business.
