. Florists' review [microform]. Floriculture. 136 The Florists* Review w Auoi/ST 20, 1914. ROCHESTER, N. Y. The Market. Both wholesale and retail business is quiet just now and on some days it seems to be at a standstill. The few good showers which have fallen during the last week have brightened up things considerably, and the aster crop is looking a hundred per cent better. In many cases, owing to the drought, the asters are small and short-stemmed, but a few growers who are fortunate enough to have any kind of sprinkling system have good stock. Gladioli have benefited also by the rains and they are arriving in fairly large quantities, but do not clear fast. Sweet peas are not overplentiful, but they are of good quality. A few Japanese and auratum lilies are seen and are used chiefly for funeral work. Easter lilies are plenti- ful. There is a good supply of roses on hand and good shipments arrive each dav. There is no special demand for American Beauties at this time. There are few carnations and the quality is poor. There do not seem to be any large cuttings of asters. The supply of greens meets all requirements. Various Notes. Bv way of change, H. E. Wilson had an unusually heavy run of funeral work last week. Although business in gen- eral has been quiet, this store has been quite busy of late. Some fine gladioli are being grown. Miss Lillian Wheeler, of J. B. Keller Sons, is away on a two weeks' vaca- tion, visiting friends at Mt. Vernon, L. T., and New York city. Joseph Werdein has just returned from a week's vacation. The Lord & Burnham Co. has been doing good business recently. Among the best sales are: Mr. Benedun, Pitts- burgh, Pa., material and erection of iron frame house with curvilinear roof; A. H. Sharman, North Warren, Pa., iron-frame house, 32x150; A. H. Wil- liams, Williamson, N. Y., pipe-frame house, 16X.33 feet; Hike-Allen Co., Cort- land. N. Y., two iron-frame houses, 40x 200 feet; W'illiam J. Thomas, Barnard, N. Y., iron-frame house, 40x15
