Flower Sales Increase,
Prices of Blooms Drop,
Saw Richmond Florists

While nearby cities have seen the
price of flowers fluctuate and soar,
Richmond's flower lovers have been
unusually fortunate, florists declare.
in having numerous greenhouses in
the city which are a continual source
of supply without the addition of ship
ping expenses.
Prices everywhere are high. They
are high in Richmond. but they have
never been as high here as elsewhere.
Never in the history of any local flor
list have as many flowers been sold
as during the past year. Increase in
sales during the past year is esti-
mated at from so to 100 per cent.
For some uncertain reason people
have suddenly since the war come into
a realiZa ton of the acute pleasure Of
flowers. People laboring under sor-
row. people blessed with many joys
have felt the same emotion stir them
according to the florists.
Prices are not going up, but down,
and in Richmond this decendency is
already noticeable, 1t is said. Prices
today are not as high as a month ago
and the time is at hand when they will
be considerably lower
For the most part flowers are plen-
tiful. They are American flowers, too.
Since the national quarantine on i'm
portation of rooted plants for fear of
spread of plant diseases prevalent in
some foreign countries, American
growers have set about supplying the
demand, which they had before filled
partly with imported blossoms. At
present only few types of bulbs can
be brought into the country. Azalas
and other Belgian plants have not ap-
peared on the market for some time,
except in cases where advance sup
plies were on hand

Canadians Seek Change
In Wheat Regulations

OTTAWA, April canadian mill
ers today asked the government that
regulations of the Canadian wheat
board be modified, as the price of
flour must be advanced if increased
cost of manufacture is to be met.
George A. Macdonald, heading the
delegation, said that continued re-
strictinns on flour prices and lack of
export markets had brought Canadian
mills face to face with serious sit
uation. He added that vast quantities
of flour available in the United States
for export complicated the Canadian
problem.
Of the 1881 members of the A. E. F..
who married abroad, 1860 were officers
and 3771 enlisted men.

the hands of the firemen's committee
when other members of the force met
today to consider the increa Sc of $192
voted by the city council. The fire
men have presented demands for a
general increase of $500 a year and
leaders declared that three-fourths of
their number would join in resigning
unless the full demand was met.
City officials announced that should
the city be endangered by a depleted
fire fighting force, state militiamen
would be called to man fire apparatus.
Some hope that the strike crisis
might be ironed out sprang from the
announcement that Mayor Thompson
would appoint an arbitration commit
tee today, composed Of department
heads and aldermen.
