LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market. 



The weather last week was very mild 

 for the time of the year and trade was 

 fairly good, but nothing to brag about. 

 Roses and carnations are still plentiful 

 in all downtown stores. There were a 

 few funerals and decorations and beau- 

 tiful work was turned out. 



Various Notes. 



August Leclere was a busy man last 

 week, installing steam in the green- 

 houses at the asylum on Fourth street, 

 to take the place of hot water. • He also 

 had a decoration for Governor A. E. 

 Wilson, at his mansion in Frankfort. 

 Many palms, ferns and cut flowers were 

 used. 



Hillenmeyer is selling lots of trees this 

 fall. 



Honaker's windows are always at- 

 tractive and he has one of the most up- 

 to-date flower stores in the south. 



B. H. Tacke, superintendent of parks, 

 is as busy as a bee, planting trees and 

 other nursery stock. 



J. A. Keller is shipping some nice 

 roses, carnations and mums out of town. 



Lucien Leclere, who was laid up last 

 week with tonsilitis, is able to be out 

 again and is ready for business. 



S. S. Kelley is sending out some good 

 mums and carnations. 



Rudolph Klag, who was formerly em- 

 ployed by J. A. Keller as rose and car- 

 nation grower, is now located in Mis- 

 souri. 



Fister Bros, built 20,000 feet of glass 

 last summer for lettuce and cucumbers. 

 There is a good demand for forced vege- 

 tables here. The plant is heated by a 

 large Kroeschell boiler. 



Mr. Nichols, superintendent of City 

 cemetery, is busy planting trees and 

 shrubs. 



Anderson & White will have a nice lot 

 of plants for Christmas and the holi- 

 days. Frank McMuUen is in charge of 

 the place and is busy planting bulbs in 

 the cemetery. 



Michler Bros. Co. will build another 

 house in the near future.

Girvin's Handy Cutter 



Mr. Florist, if you once sret one of these cutters on your finger you will never 

 be without it for many times the price. Just the thing for cutting your carnations, 

 sweet peas, asters, melons, grapes, etc. Why be bothered with a knife or follow 

 the old way of breaking your flowers when a Handy Cutter will do the work better 



and save you money and time? Don't continue 

 breaking your carnations and thus ruin hundreds 

 of young shoots daily, simply because a knife is 

 unhandy to work with, but try a Handy Cutter. If 

 you are not entirely satisfied with it you can return 

 it and ha"e your money refunded. These cutters 

 are made of spring brass, highly nickel-plated, and 

 contain a removable blade.
