who has had a severe illness, has practi- 

 cally recovered and is able to be back 

 at the office again. The seed business 

 of this concern is beconiing quite active 

 and southern mail orders are coming in 

 thick and fast. 



J. Kervan, of the Kervan Co., New 

 York, called on the trade last week. 



A visit to the local greenhouses 

 throughout the city found all well filled 

 with Easter stock, which promises to 

 be good in every way. Bulbous stock 

 is particularly plentiful. Calceolarias 

 are few in number, while cinerarias are 

 in good supply, as are begonias. Mar- 

 guerites are not ovcrplentiful, while 

 deutzias are scarce. Primroses, lilies, 

 rose bushes, hydrangeas and miscellane- 

 ous stock seemed to be in fair supply. 



Miss Lillian Wheeler has returned to 

 her work, after being confined to her 

 home for several weeks. 



Beautiful largo branches of cherry 

 in full lilooni and some well flowered 

 branches of forsythia are seen in the 

 window of Salter Bros. For the last 

 three or four Saturdays tliey have run 

 specials, in both potted plants and boxes 

 of cut flowers, retailing at $1. 



Mrs. Ethel Foster DcKlync has licen 

 added to the force of (Jcorf" B. Hart. 



H. J. H. 



LOUIS G. BATCLITFE BUILDS. 



Success has marked the oiierations of 

 Louis G. Katcliff"o, at Charlotte, N. C, 

 following his discharge from the United 

 St-ates service, about two years ago. So 

 extensively has his flower business in- 

 creased that he is now constructing four 

 houses SS.x.lOO feet. The buildings will 

 cost in the neighborhood of .$100,000. 

 When completed, tiiis range will be one 

 of the largest in his section. 



Mr. Ratcliffe has obtained his flowers 

 liitherto from large ejistern cities to ac- 

 commodate his retail trade, but with 

 this establishment he contemplates 

 serving his entire retail trade and doing 

 a wholesale business as w(>ll. One house 

 will lie devoted entiridy to roses, the 

 others containing a general line of cut 

 flowers. He also jilans to grow an ex- 

 tensive line of ornamental shrubs, and 

 to his business will be add«l a land- 

 scape gardening department.
