LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market. 



Trade in the last two weeks has been 

 only fair; yet there are no surplus 

 flowers, unless it may be in bulbous 

 stock. Roses and carnations are more 

 plentiful and of better color, on account 

 of the colder and clearer weather. Vio- 

 lets and sweet peas are scarce. We are 

 having our first severe cold spell. St. 

 Valentine's day business was ahead of 

 last year. Violets, roses and blooming 

 plants met with the heaviest call. 



Various Notes. 



The Michler Bros. Co. reports trade 

 good. The firm has a new Lord & Burn- 

 ham house in course of construction 

 and will install a new boiler in the 

 spring, large enough to take care of 

 future additions. 



Honaker the Florist is cutting a fine 

 lot of stock. He reports a general clean- 

 up on St. Valentine's day. 



The John A. Keller Estate was in just 

 right with a heavy cut of fine roses an<l 

 carnations for St. Valentine 's day. A 

 fine lot of blooming plants, such as ob- 

 conicas, cinerarias and hyacinths, were 

 easily disposed of. Stock for Easter is 

 coming on nicely. 



Keller, Florist, says St. A'alentine's 

 day was surely "some day." Every- 

 thing sold well. This firm had the 

 decoration and supplied some .3,000 

 carnations for the opening of a new 

 bank recently. 



A brand-new girl arrived at the home 

 of Ernest Hillenmeyer, our popular 

 young nurseryman, last week. 



August Leclere, the florist at the East- 

 ern State hospital here, has been con- 

 fined to bed for the last two weeks. 



•John F. Keller made a flying trip to 

 Cincinnati, O., and Richmond, Ind., last 

 week. 



Miss Fannie White reports trade as 

 steady. Her St. Valentine's day busi- 

 ness was unusually good this year.

TO COREESPONDENTS. 



.J. A. T. — Stack the compost, a layer 

 of soil, then a layer of manure, then 

 another layer of soil, and so on. Cut 

 it down and repile occasionally.
