this ^vork from year to year, and also 

 furnished the decorations for the Shrin- 

 ors' banquet. 



The Jacob Sehulz Co. furnished the 

 decoration for the opening of the new 

 ■women's store. 



The Kentucky Society of Florists held 

 its monthly meeting March 7, at the 

 store of the William Walker Co. D. 

 Walker delivered an address on "Sys- 

 tem of Modern Easter Business." 



F. Walker & Co. suffered another 

 smash-up of their delivery car last week. 

 The driver, while speeding on Third 

 avenue, found himself confronted by 

 lowered railroad gates. In attempting 

 to stop the car he smashed the gates and 

 damaged the car considerably. 



H. B. Kennicott, of Kennicott Bros. 

 Co., Chicago, while making a southern 

 trip, stopped off at Louisville and called 

 on several of the florists. Other visitors 



were J. F. Dayton, of the Madison Bas- 

 ket-craft Co., Madison, 0.; A. Humason, 

 of the Raedlein Basket Co., Chicago; R. 

 Adgato, of the McCallum Co., Pitts- 

 burgh; W. Ward, of the Hill Nursery Co.,

The Market. 



Last week business was particularly 

 poor. Apparently the Lenten season is 

 being strictly observed, for there is lit- 

 tle doing in the way of social functions. 

 The market is well stocked with cut 

 flowers and seasonable plants, and prices 

 are somewhat easier. The weather has 

 improved and sunshine each day is bring- 

 ing stock along in good shape. There 

 is no shortage of anything in cut flow- 

 ers; rather more, in some kinds, than 



the market requires. The supply of roses 

 is large, especially in the longer grades, 

 but there is still a decided shortage in 

 short-stemmed stock. Eussell, Mary- 

 land, Ward, Sunburst, Killarney and 

 Montrose roses are the best sellers; the 

 daily demand is quite large. 



Carnations are plentiful and sell well. 

 A few good reds are seen now, but they 

 do not sell readily. The market has 

 been overstocked with violets and many 

 have been disposed of at 35 cents per 

 hundred. The demand for sweet peaa is 

 quite good, and these are of exceptional 

 quality, with stems extra long. Orchids 

 and gardenias are moving more easily 

 now. Mignonette, myosotis, snapdragons 

 and jonquils are popular in basket work. 

 There is a good demand for the spring 

 flowers, but the daily consignments are 

 large. Golden Spur and Emperor nar- 

 cissi sell fast. Poeticus and Paper
