FLOWERS FOR EASTER.
More Will Be Used Than Ever. With Prices
Ranging Higher.

The local dealers say that Easter
flowers are coming into use more and
more and that the orders so far indi-
cate that the sale this year will be
greater than ever before. The prices
remain about the same as in former
years with the exception of carnations
(which will range little higher than
ever before. There are two reasons for
this first the supply is not as great as
in former years while the demand
seems to be greater than ever before.
The prices in this city will probably
be lower than in most cities owing to
the care with which many of the local
dealers have placed their orders.
Some of the dealers placed their orders
for Easter flowers several weeks ago
so that they are sure not only OF nav
ing the best flowers in the market. out
also of being able to furnish them at
lower price than many of the dealers
in other cities who neglected to place
their orders as early. The greatest
demand will probably be for roses and
pinks. Pinks are selling now for 80
cents per dozen and will probably not
exceed ST. The roses that will be
handled in this city for the most part
will cost the purchasers from 81 to
s.. 20 per dozen while of course special
orders can be furnished that will go
much higher.
We give below list of prices for
the commoner flowers made out from
the Boston list for Easter. The prices
quoted are per dozen. Easter and
Gala lilies. So to 81; roses, S1.5O for
some of the cheaper grades to ST. for
the best American Beauty roses:
pinks. 81 to 50: tulips. - cents to s10o.
narcissus. - cents to S1.00. hyacinth,
s.. 90 to $l5O: lily of the valley. 500.
and viOlets are priced at from % cents
to Sl5O per bunch. Probably the
prices for this city will follow these
prices as n basis. but the tendency
will he for them to be lower rather
than higher owing as has been said
to the fact that many of the larger
dealers placed their orders early ana
will get the very lowest prices on their
orders.
