INDIANAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Trade has been fair since Easter. 

 There has been a little funeral work 

 and stock is being cleaned up daily. 

 Eoses are of first-class quality and may 

 be had at from $4 to $8 per hundred. 

 Carnations are not too plentiful at 

 from $2 to $2.50 per hundred. Easter 

 lilies arc plentiful at $8 to $12 per hun- 

 dred. The orchid-flowering sweet peas 

 are being cleaned up daily. Bulbous 

 stock is not so plentiful as it has been 

 heretofore. Home-grown violets are also 

 becomino quite scarce. 



Various Notes. 



B. F. Hensley, of Knightstown, is 

 sending quantities of stock into this 

 market. 



The Indianapolis Flower & Plant Co. 

 has a fine line of bedding stock coming 

 on for the spring trade. 



Baur & Steinkamp are cutting some 

 first-class snapdragon. 



The May meeting of the State ¥lo- 

 rists' Association is to be held with 

 Harry White, at North Manchester. 

 W. J. Vesey, Jr., chairman of the 

 finance committee for the fall flower 

 show, IS highly pleased with the way 

 in which the contributions are com- 

 ing in. 



Hartje & Elder had a fine cut of car- 

 nations for Easter. John Hartje is 

 giving his young chrysanthemum stock 

 a great deal of attention this spring, 

 as he expects to carry off most of the 

 premiums at the fall flower show. 



The A. Wiegand's Sons Co. is show- 

 ing a large line of freshly imported box 

 trees. H. L. W.

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. £. H. Blameusrr, 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 good enough for anybody.
