week the weather was cool; in fact, it 

 was close to the freezing mark every 

 night, so that this week promises to be 

 even better than last week for the sale 

 of bedding plants. The quality of the 

 geraniums and the salvias is the best 

 I have ever seen, and the prices higher 

 than usual. In recent years the bulk of 

 the salvias sold at 50 cents per dozen 

 and the geraniums at $1. This season 

 75 cents would be rather below the 

 average for salvias and $1.50 for gera- 

 niums is about as low as they go. The 

 quality is better; the profits are larger; 

 the customer is more pleased. 



Various Notes. 



Geny Bros, are planning to do con- 

 siderable rebuilding at their old place 

 this summer. Oscar Geny, who has 

 been under the care of a physician for 

 some time, is Improving, but still is un- 

 able to attend to his regular duties. 



Floyd Bralliac ^^ planting over an 

 acre of cannas this season. He is mak- 

 ing a full test of the new varieties of- 

 fered this year, in comparison with a 

 number of his own seedlings. 



The Hillcrest School Farm has a re- 

 markable showing of irises at present, 

 embracing about 150 varieties. The 

 demand for irises certainly is on the 

 increase in this city. 



The Joy Floral Co. had its carna- 

 tions in the field before the Easter 

 rush. I have never seen their green- 

 houses so completely empty as they 

 were the day after Easter. They re- 

 port the heaviest business they have 

 ever done at this season. 



Haury & Sons have their wagons on 

 the street with pot plants of all kinds. 



Mclntyre Bros, are oflfering their new 

 geranium, a sport of Tom Thumb, this 

 spring. This geranium has been be- 

 fore the public two years and has 

 proven a real winner for this locality. 



Leslie Littel has nearly an acre in 

 bulbs of various kinds this spring. The 

 bulbs have made a wonderfully good 

 showing. 



Charles Tritschler, who erected a 

 range of houses last summer and went 

 into the plant business, has the repu- 

 tation of having the best line of bed- 

 ding plants ever offered in the city.
