A GOOD INVESTMENT. 



Enclosed please find my check for $1.40 

 in payment for my half -inch card one 

 month in the department for Leading 

 Retail Florists in the Review. This has 

 been a good investment for me ever since 

 I made the yearly contract, and is get- 

 ting better right along. "

The Market 



Trade for the week has "fce^n fairly 

 good, considering the unfavorable weath- 

 er. Flowers are rather abundant, espe- 

 cially roses and carnations. We have 

 had a cold spell for several days, with 

 rain on Friday and Saturday, which is 

 expected to start everyone to planting 

 out stock. The hardy material which 

 usually is largely seen during May is 

 lacking, and flowers for Memorial day 

 will probably be scarcer than at any 

 former celebration within the memory of 

 the trade. Peonies will hardly be in 

 bloom in time for Decoration day, as 

 most df them are hardly showing color. 



Decoration day here is almost as much 

 observed as Easter. Notwithstanding the 

 number of public parks, there is a Targe 

 proportion of every city's population 

 which resorts on Sundays and holidays to 

 our large burial grounds, though these, 

 of course, are not now, as was the case a 

 generation or two ago, the show places 

 to which strangers are escorted. The ef- 

 forts made, therefore, to keep them up 

 to a higher standard of taste, in the 

 laying out of the grounds, the construc- 

 tion of roads, the formation of masses of 

 shrubbery and the tasteful arrangement 

 of beds of flowering plants, deserve com- 

 mendation as furnishing examples for 

 the many who find pleasure in visiting 

 beautiful grounds dedicated to those who 

 have passed away. London park, one of 

 the largest cemeteries in Bfdtimore, has 

 over 700 acres and an electric car system 

 for the use of its lot-holders, and has 

 seven large greenhouses where they grow 

 plants for cut blooms to supply their 

 trade.
