DUNNVILLE, ONT. 



L. H. Weaver is not a large grower of 

 carnations bnt is doing a nice business 

 and adding to liis plant every year. He 

 has a carnation house 20x85 feet, with 

 glass ends and side and grows first-class 

 stock. Last year he averaged 61 cents 

 per plant all through the house. Law- 

 sons are extra and money makers but 

 Joost is a close second ; he has them of 

 remarkable size. He tried a few Lorna 

 but is disappointed with them; they 

 are sprawly and did poorly until Janu- 

 ary; now they are giving some very good 

 blooms, but the variety will be discard- 

 ed. Harry Fenn is good but the flowers 

 burst badly. White Cloud and Morning 

 Glory are always good and pay well 

 here._ Estelle is short in stem and wUl 

 be discarded for Crane, which is nearly 

 as large a flower on a better stem. 



LOUISVILLE. KY. 



Business the past week has been all 

 that could be desired, with a great deal 

 of funeral work. White flowers are in 

 demand. We are having some real win- 

 ter weather here at present. 



Jos. Coenen & Co. have a bench 

 of Lawson carnations in fine shape that 

 would be hard to beat anywhere. 



Jacob Schulz 's carnation houses are 

 in fine shape. His Enchantress is the 

 wonder of everybody, having large flow- 

 ers and good, long stems. 



Henry Fuchs will soon move to his 

 new residence, adjoining his green- 

 houses. 



Wm. ilann, out in the southern part of 

 the city, reports trade good. 



Nanz & Neuner made a handsome dis- 

 play in their show window on Valen- 

 tine's day. It was admired by every- 

 body who passed by. 



John Bohrman, of Jos. Coenen & Co., 

 is confined to his bed with a bad cold. 



F. Walker & Co. report trade very 

 good for February. 



Hy. Lichtefeld. 



Bata\ia, III. — The Williams & Sons 

 Co. is preparing to rebuild its green- 

 houses and put the plant in modern 

 shape. 



Jeeset Citt, N. J. — There is a pret- 

 ty little story going the rounds as to 

 how Daniel Cole put a cage containing 

 a lion cub in his show window to at- 

 tract attention to his flower store ; the 

 cub broke loose and destroyed the lion 's 

 share of the contents of the store.
