KNOXVILLE, TENN. 



The Market. 



The --weather is cold and bright, and 

 stock of all kinds is fine. Carnations, 

 which were splitting pretty badly last 

 week, are now almost perfect, and the 

 supply exceeds the demand. Eoses are 

 better than at any time this season, 

 Killarneys predominating. Narcissi are 

 fine, and the market is still overstocked. 

 Valley, orchids and hyacinths are good 

 and plentiful. There is also a good 

 supply of plants, which are selling well. 

 Business has been a little off, as there 

 has been nothing going on to amount 

 to anything, and funeral work has only 

 been normal. 



Various Notes. 



E. G. Hill, of the E. G. Hill Co., 

 Richmond, Ind., and Arthur Zirkman, 

 representing the M. Bice Co., Philadel- 

 phia, called on the trade last week, and 

 Gunnar Teilmann, Jr., of Johnson City, 

 Tenn., spent two days in Knoxville. 



C. li. Baum is cutting some fine carna- 

 tions, roses and orchids. He has in 

 stock a large number of fine primrose 

 plants in pots, which are moving fast. 



Addison J. McNutt has done a great 

 deal of funeral work during the last 

 week. 



Mrs. Rosa Hall Ryno also has been 

 rather busy with funeral work. 



A. H. Dailey sold a large number of 

 pot plants last week. He is beginning 

 to cut baby primroses. 



The new year started with a rush 

 at C. W. Crouch 's, but things have 

 quieted down the last few days. Flow- 

 ers have been rather scarce since the 

 Christmas rush, but from now on he 

 will have a heavy cut of carnations, 

 roses and sweet peas; orchids also are 

 blooming better, and the demand is 

 great. Several decorations for dances 

 have been put up of late; one especially, 

 of southern wild smilax, was much ad- 

 mired. R. E. M.

TESTIMONIAL 



Wkver, Iowa, December 28, 1914. 

 The Foley Oreenhouse Mfg. Co., Chicago, 111. , ^ , 



QeDtlemen: We have just been painting the greenhouse material and hotbed sash we 

 received from you, and we wish to write you a short letter in regard to the Quality of this 

 material. , ^ ^ 



We knew, of course, when we first saw the goods you sent us that we had something 

 extra line in quality, but when we came to paint it and examine it closely we were more than 

 pleased. 



In fact, the hotbed sash and greenhouse material was absolutely free from knots, worm 

 holes and sap, and if they vieie defective in any way we have not found it yet. 



We have bought several hundred hotbed saih locally and have always got what we con- 

 sidered first-class sash, but your sash are ahead of them every way. not only in Quality of 

 material but especially in construction and workmanship, and, best of all, we saved forty 

 cents on every sash. . , ..^ ^ 



If you wish to refer anyone to us. or to print this letter, you are at perfect liberty to 

 do so. Yours very truly, Edgar Bkebe & Sons. 



The above are responsible gardeners and farmers, and it is with pleasure 

 that we print this verbatim copy of their letter, the original of which we have 

 in our ofBce. 



The purchase from us was made only after due consideration of the esti- 

 mates of other manufacturers covering the same material. Their order con- 

 sisted of several hundred hotbed sash, material for three greenhouses and a 

 carload of pecky cypress bench material. Their verdict is the same as that of 

 many other well satisfied customers who use our material. 



Send us your inquiries and be happy, as they are.
