small beginnings until now they have 

 between 60,000 and 70,000 square feet

 ago they began opening a new plant in 

 West NashvUle, on Morrow road, which 

 plant has now grown to considerable 

 size. 



The Joys started business in 1883,

 son, is bookkeeper. They have now be- 

 tween four and five acres under glass, 

 and grow everything in cut flowers. The 

 officers of the company are: T. C. Joy,

 The store is at 601 Church street; the 

 greenhouses are on Lischey avenue. 



MISSOULA, MONT. 



Contrary to the situation in many 

 eastern localities, trade here has been 

 much greater than that of any previous 



year. The financial trouble has been 

 little felt in this part of the country. I 

 have been out here a year, and find that 

 the climatic conditions are especially 

 favorable here for the growing of car- 

 nations. Asters, sweet peas and other 

 outdoor summer flowers reach perfection 

 here, and we are never troubled with the 

 aster bug. 



The Missoula Nursery Co. cut a splen- 

 did lot of carnation»> during the winter. 

 The sales on Easter by this firm were 

 the largest ever made in this city. There 

 was a rush all day and as long in the 

 evening as the stock lasted. This year 

 for the first time the home greenhouses 

 have been able to supply the local de- 

 mand, and there was no stock shipped in 

 for the Easter trade. "We met the de- 

 mand this year," said Manager Dall- 

 man, as he wearily surveyed the ruins 

 of his stock. "It was hard work, but 

 we had it planned about right, and we 

 did the best business in our history."

OMAHA. 



Business for Easter was excellent; the 

 best we ever had. Fine spring weather 

 helped to make it so, as we had an un- 

 usually fine Easter week as far as the 

 weather is concerned. Lilies were plen- 

 tiful, but one-half were poor stock and 

 prices were accordingly. All the flo- 

 rists report an increase of from 10 to 30 

 per cent in sales. Potted plants in bloom 

 sold well, especially azaleas, lilacs and 

 bougainvilleas. Made up baskets went 

 slow. Cut flowers of all descriptions 

 were plentiful and of good quality and 

 prices moderate. H.
