FLOWER INDUSTRY
FACING PROBLEMS
Market Has Been Flooded
by Influx of New
Growers.
BY BRADLEY w. TRENT.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK. March 22-The thronged
Nineteenth International Flower Show.
now being held here, directs attention
to the size and importance Of the whole
sale flower production of the United
States and the problems now besetting
that industry
Wholesale producers OF bulbs, fiow-
ers. plants and shrubs employ about
100000 persons. They utilize about 10
square miles Of glass. Their investment
In plant and equipment approximates
S413,5l2,044, sum that compares fa-
Vorably with the amount of money in
vested in plants of the major producers
OF primary steel in this country.
The flowers that bloom in the Spring
and all the other seasons of the year
are feeling the effects of the depres-
sion like other products. Modern rapid
transportation has also forced many
dollhouse vegetable growers into the
mower business, thereby flooding the
market.
Although Chicago always refers to
itself as the flower center Of the United
States, receipts reported by almost
two-thirds Of the wholesalers in Illi-
nois for 1929, the latest available sta
tistics, were s14, 1922, ,7O3, as against $40
866,387 for the State of New York
Pennsylvania, Ohio and New JERSEY
ranked next In order on value of flower
receipts.
Figures representing about two-thirds
OF the industry show there are 24,I27
wholesale growers Of bulbs. flowers
plants and shrubs in this country
There are 1908 nurseries, 1895 bulb
growers and 14,984 flower and vegetable
growers under glass. Only a small frac-
ton OF the latter group now grow vege-
tables. Shipment of fresh vegetables
from Southern States and Mexico has
caused virtually all the Eastern and
many western growers to turn to flow
ers. Fast train service between Chicago
and New York has aided Ohio and IN
diana growers, however. Ohio still ranks
high in the production Of hot-house
cucumbers and tomatoes, and Indiana
Terre Haute-remains the home of the
largest hot-house vegetable growing
company in the country.
The bulb industry, the infant in this
trade, attained its growth within the
last eight years, or since bulb importa-
tionS from Holland were banned It Is
located chiefly in Washington, Oregon
and California and on Long Island,
N. Y. The soil in the Northwest is es-
pecially suited for growing bulbs.
Although the flowers on display here
this week are valued around 81 900, 900
and many millionaires are named in the
$4,000 cash prize awarded-including
j. P. Morgan, Marshall Field, c. E.
Mitchell, Mrs. Payne Whitney, Mrs.
George F. Baker and Mrs. Harrison
Williams-this industry has never fig
ured much on the profit side in Wall
Street. On the Stock Exchange there
is none and on the Curb Exchange
only two companies that can claim in
terest in the plant-growing industry.
These are Selected Industries. Inc,
which owns 62,500 shares of the Thomas
Young Nurseries, and the S. A. Gerard
Co., national distributors of fruits and
vegetables and growers of lettuce and
cantaloupes in Arizona, California,
Colorado and New Mexico.

CURB SHARES SLIP
TO LOWER LEVELS
Steady Selling Forces Lead.
erS DoWn-UtiIities De-
cline Again.
BY JOHN A. CRoNE.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, March ga slight but
steady stream of selling came into the
Curp exchange today, causing the mar
ket to show a predominance Of minus
signs. The opening had been quiet, but
mixed
Pivotal public utilities. such as the
Electric Bond g. Share Group, started
the downward trend. Cities Service
was virtually unchanged. Standard Oil
OF Indiana erased its early gain. Spe-
clalities such as Mead-Johnson and
DIXON Crucible broke readily.
Early improvement in the Electric
Bond & Share group reflected two
overnight developments. A sufficient
number Of proxies we're received to as
sure stockholders approval Of the re-
capitalization plan at the special meet
ing this afternoon. American Gas &
Electric showed better than expected
earnings for 1881. After Electric
Bonds common stock has been reduced
TO one-third of present outstanding
shares, the directors will declare regu-
lar common and preferred dividends.
American Gas & Electric had a net
OF S3.57 share in 1881 against $4.38
In 1880. United Light g. Power con-
vertible preferred rose a point. Bra
lillian Traction yielded more than a
half point as it reported February net
OF 81 ,345, ,032 against 81 1927, ,649 for Feb
ruary, 1881. Net for first two months
OF this year was s2.690,833 against
S3,844,5 ,568 last year. 1t was explained
that the decline in foreign exchange
largely accounts for the decrease in
earnings
Standard Oil of Kentucky continued
heavy despite President Smiths state
ment that business in the first two
months of 1882 showed an improvement
in both gasoline and tire sales. Humble
OIL quickly relapsed after an early rise.
Gulf Oil opened slightly lower.
Dixon Crucible Co. broke IA points
on block Of 10 shares. Sheaffer Pen
yielded point to a new low level as
1t responded to 1891 earnings of s110
a share against $349 in 1880.
Several days ago E. W. Bliss Co. stock
forecast the omission of common and
preferred dividends. Directors an
nounced that action today after review
ing the 1881 report indicating a net
loss, after all charges. of S225, 1898
against net profit, before inventory
adjustment. of S71,02l in 1880.
United States gold storage, one of
the inactive issues, made no immediate
response to the passing of its common
quarterly dividend of so cents. Ma
tional Transit, which has reduced its
prices 3 cents a barrel on crude In
various districts, rose fractionally.
