EVANSVILLE, IND. 



Easter trade in this neck of woods was 

 something tremendous. We cleaned up 

 everything worth talking about; did not 

 have enough loft to make a ten cent but- 

 tonhole boui|uet. Cut flowers, roses and 

 carnations sold better than plants, though 

 we disposed of a few eallas, hyacinths, 

 primulas, etc., Saturday. Demand for 

 plants, liowever, was nothing coftipared to 

 demand for cut flowers. Koses retailed 

 at $1.2.) to $1..50 per doz. ; American 

 Beauties, $6 to $8 per doz., according to 

 quality; carnations, 75 cents to $1 per 

 doz. 



Saturda.y before Easter the weather 

 was cloudy with some rain but it was not 

 too cold to handle the delivery of flowers 

 with safety, for which all the florists 

 weTe duly tnankful. Saturday night we 

 had a terrible storm of thunder and light- 

 ning tluring which a large Catholic 

 church was struck by lightning anil to- 

 tally destroyed. The congregation had 

 made a very elaborate preparation for 

 celebrating Easter in the way of decora- 

 tions of flowers, plants, etc., all of which 

 went up in fire and smoke. Loss, $75,001) 

 to $100,000 on building and contents; in- 

 surance, $10,000. Do not think anyone 

 can complain of the Easter business done 

 in this citv. J. 11. W. 



OIL CITY, PA. 



W. JI. Deyoe & Co. were well equipped 

 to take care of their Easter trade, which 

 was a record-breaker. Their roses and 

 carnations were in fine crop and bulbous 

 stock never looked better. Mr. Smith, 

 formerly with Randolph & MeClements, 

 of Pittsburg, is now in the employ of 

 W. M. Deyoe & Co. Ground has been 

 cleared and the five additional carnation 

 houses will be built in the earlv spring. 



X. 



S.\LT Lake City, Utah. — The Utah 

 Nursery Co. has been awarded damages 

 of $9,678.92 in the condemnation suit 

 brought by the Eio Graude Western Rail- 

 way Co. for right of way through tlie 

 nurserv land.
