The Market. 



The general run of trade is decidedly 

 slow, and were it not for a few of the 

 extras that happen occasionally, euch as 

 weddings, funeral work, etc., we would 

 not be able to speak favorably of busi- 

 ness. Perhaps, too, the lull in trade is 

 more noticeable on account of the plenti- 

 ful supply of stock in all lines. The 

 bright, warm weather has not only 

 brought an abundamt supply of cut flow- 

 ers and plants, but in some varieties 

 has caused a glut. Especially is this 

 true of the longiflorum lilies, while 

 others complain of carnations and roses. 

 In fact, the mild winter has been a 

 problem for the florists to solve, for it 

 is thought by some that a good portion 

 of the bulbous stock will come in a Ut- 

 ile too early for Easter. 



Various Notes. ^ 



W. G. Matthews' window at his Main 

 street store last week was a beautiful 

 array of spring flowers in baskets. 



Mrs. B. Haschke tells us she is pick- 

 ing a fine crop of sweet peas. 



One thing that is attracting a great 

 deal of attention and admiration at "W. 

 W. Horlacher 's greenhouses is a beauti- 

 ful crop of forget-me-nots, uncommon 

 in this city. 



George Bartholomew, of the Edge- 

 mont Floral Co., gives an encouraging 

 report on business. 



George Lampert, of Xenia, was in 

 town March 1, with some fine carna- 

 tions and sweet peas. 



One of the big things that the Heiss 

 Co. did last week was to decorate for a 

 wedding in Harshman.
