LOUISVILLE, KY. 



Business for the first three weeks of 

 liont has been as good as could be ex- 

 pected. Stock of all kinds has been 

 plentiful and quality good. Jonquils were 

 in good supply and several of the stores 

 made special displays of them, with a 

 result that was quite satisfactory. All 

 kinds of bulbous stock are coming in and 

 are somewhat better than formerly. 



Carnations are plentiful, likewise roses, 

 and violets are in full crop, with the re- 

 sult that prices took a tumble to where 

 they sold from 50 cents to $1 per 

 hundred. Valley, orchids and other stock 

 are about equal to the demand. 



Stock for Easter is in good shape and 

 some fine plants and flowers will be on 

 hand. K. E.
