LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market. 



Business has been exceedingly dull 

 for the last two weeks and quite a 

 lot of stock finds its way into the trash 

 barrels. Weather conditions no doubt 

 are to blame, as this vicinity has had 

 unusual snows of late. Stock is of good 

 quality, especially roses, carnations and 

 sweet peas. Beauties ^e scarce, as 

 are Eichmonds. Bulbous stock is mov- 

 ing slowly. Well grown blooming 

 plants always find a ready sale. 



Various Notes. 



John Fister has purchased a farm 

 ■of 178 acres a few miles out. Four 

 houses of lettuce and cauliflower are in 

 fine shape at his home place. 



Kelley & Current's place is in good 

 shape. This firm has over 1,000 gera- 

 niums just shifted into. 4-inch pots for 

 spring trade. 



Ollie Honaker, of the firm of Hona- 

 ker the Florist, has moved his family 

 into town, so as to be in closer touch 

 with the store. 



Three houses of hydrangeas, roses 

 and lilies in pots certainly look good 

 for Easter at the John A. Keller estate. 

 Two large houses of roses have made a 

 fine break for the Easter crop. 



James P. Keller is all smiles. It's a 

 boy this time, and he arrived March 4. 



Miss Fannie White reports trade 

 good. Stock at the greenhouses is com- 

 ing on nicely for spring. 



James P. Keller has purchased a fine 

 tract of nine acres of land just outside 

 the city limits. Mr. Keller intends 

 adding a line of shrubbery and hardy 

 perennials. Some glass may be put 

 up eventually. 



R. H. Tacke has his hands full this 

 spring, with landscape work. He is 

 busy just now with the new Duncan 

 park, twhich will be completed this 

 spring.

JOY! 



This is a Carnation that did not get a reputation 

 over night. We have been handling it for a little over 

 two years and ought to know something about it. 



IT'S A REAL RED 



It is the kind of Carnation that proves the florist's friend. Shipped over a distance, it 

 will look as good on arrival as when sent. This feature appeals to us because we know what 

 it means to the man who is depending on us. 



JOY has been described by Mr. E. H. Blameusfr, of Niles Center, 111. — the man who 

 raised it -as "a strong grower, early, very free and continuous bloomer, with strong calyx 

 and good atem." That should be gocd enough for anybody.
