bringing top prices until the outdoor 

 stock arrives. Loveliness and Mrs. F. 

 Pendleton arc the leaders in demand, 

 with America and Francis King second

 the week. 



The greens, as usual, are all in large 

 demand, especially asparagus, galax and 

 flat ferns. The price on the new crop 



of flat ferns has gone up to $3 per 

 thousand.

 business at the present location, 516 

 North Grand avenue. He is regarded 

 as one of the wealthiest members of 

 the trade in St. Louis and a friend of
