CUT FLOWER MARKET REPORTS. 



Continued from page 15. 



The trade in gen- 

 INDIANAPOLIS eral report the 

 most successful 

 Christmas in years. Probably never 

 before were so many plants sold. 

 The chief method of selling them was 

 in made-up baskets, flowering and 

 foliage plants being mixed. Nothing 

 new was to be seen, but there were a 

 much larger number of azaleas 

 handled than in former years. As 

 usual the pieces of cut flowers went 

 very high, Beauties and tea roses being 

 very scarce. The retail stores bought 

 heavily out-of-town as the home grow- 

 ers could not begin to supply the de- 

 mand. That plants are being used 

 more and more at this season is evi- 

 dent and that the cut flower trade does 

 not increase proportionately has also 

 been apparent this season. The ever- 

 green trade was exceptionally good, 

 holly being sold in large quantities. 



A FITTING TRIBUTE. 



In memory of the late Lewis Ull- 

 rich and his efforts in beautifying the 

 city, David .J. Stalter, a friend of 

 many years' standing, has bequeathed 

 to the city of Tiffin, Ohio, a parcel of 

 ground to be known as Ullrich Place. 

 The land is centrally located and con- 

 tains a handsome maple grove.
