f-'"- The Market. 



The market is fairly well supplied 

 with all lines of stock. The demand, 

 while good, is not steady, but varies 

 greatly from day to d^y. Eoses are 

 more plentiful than they were and are 

 equal to the demand. American Beau- 

 ties continue plentiful and carnations 

 are in heavy supply. Easter lilies are 

 good and abundant. The sweet pea cut 

 is large and meets with a fair sale. 

 Bulbous offerings include narcissi, dou- 

 ble and single tulips, Dutch, hyacinths, 

 jonquils and daffodils. Other offerings 

 are callas, valley, double and single 

 violets, mignonette and forget-me-nots. 

 Wild smilax is meeting with a lively 

 demand. 



Vailous Notes.', 



C. E. Critchell has been enjoying a 

 heavy call for wild smilax and is plac- 

 ing a large quantity of it in storage in 

 anticipation of a big demand later on. 



E. G. Gillett's wire department is 

 extremely busy, principally with or- 

 ders for hanging baskets. 



Ben George, Jr., is showing rapid re- 

 covery from his recent illness. 



P. J. Olinger accompanied his broth- 

 er-in-law, Fred Funk, as far as New- 

 castle, Ind., when the. latter w-as en 

 route to North Dakota. C. H. H.

The lilarket. 



Business is not showing the life we 

 thought had come to stay, and the 

 weather is largely responsible. Stock 

 of all kinds is plentiful. Roses, which 

 were scarce, now are arriving in quan- 

 tities sufficient to supply all demands 

 and the wholesalers have a little sur- 

 plus in the evening. Many of the re- 

 tailers complain that there is a slump 

 in business; even funeral work is not 

 so jplentiful "and there are few social 

 affairs of any importance. 



Various Notes: 





PAYING HOUSES 



When planning for your new houses you no doubt wish 

 to erect the same so that in the course of time you have 

 the best returns from them. You want to consider the 

 durability, the convenience, the efficiency, and 



last but not least, the cost of the houses. Not one^of 

 these points is overlooked in our construction. Write for our sketches 

 and estimates. .......

It does not look as though there were 

 many persons trying to break into the 

 growing end of the business, for there 

 are three places here that have been, 

 on the market for over a year, for 

 which purchasers cannot be found.
