LOUISVILLE, KY. 



The Market. ^ 



Stock has been short throughout the 

 week. Columbia, Ophelia, Sunburst and 

 the Killarney roses have been in excel- 

 lent condition. Bed roses have been 

 scarce. Ward roses are not plentiful, 

 but the few coming in are of good color- 

 ing and condition. Easter lilies are now 

 coming in and bring good prices. 

 Orchids and valley are in the market 

 and both are of unusual quality. Some 

 good blooming plants are making their 

 appearance on the local market. Cycla- 

 mens are in the lead, with begonias a 

 good second. Primroses are also in 

 fairly good condition. 



Various Notes. 



Miss Emma Baumer, with August R. 

 Baumer, is back at work after an ill- 

 ness. 



The family of Louis Kirch, who have 

 been ill for several weeks, are all im- 

 proving, except Mrs. Kirch. Mr. Kirch 

 has been extremely busy trying to fur- 

 nish greens to the florists throughout 

 the city with a limited supply, but 

 brighter days are in prospect, as he is 

 now able to get enough stotfk to meet 

 demands. 



Should you want to see some pretty 

 begonias, you should take a walk 

 through the greenhouses of Adam Heitz. 

 Mrs. Heitz is able to be out now, as 

 well as little Miss Dot Heitz, who was 

 hit by an automobile while going to 

 school January 30, 1918. 



John Ruysenaars, in charge of the 

 landscape department of the Jacob 

 Schulz Co., has been rushed with work 

 this fall. Mr. Brownewell, in charge of 

 the cut flower department, has been 

 working day and night to keep up with 

 the rush of funeral orders. This concern 

 hopes some day to have its full force 

 working. For the last week or two sick- 

 ness has crippled it. 



All the florists have been extremely 

 busy with funeral work the last ten days 

 and they also find corsage work and cut 

 flower orders beyond expectations. 



The day after Thanksgiving found all 

 florists short of stock and unable to se- 

 cure more in the local market. This 

 year Thanksgiving was the best on rec- 

 ord, everyone selling out. Stock was 

 unusually good. L. K.
