LOUISVILLE, KY. 



The Market. 



The market has been unsettled dur- 

 ing the last ten days, owing to the 

 flood situation. It has been utterly 

 impossible to get express in from Chi- 

 cago, as there has been no train service 

 between that city and Louisville. 

 Boses, in the longer grades, have been 

 particularly scarce. This is also true 

 of Beauties. A few growers had a lot 

 Of bulbous stock, which helped the 

 situation wonderfully. Sweet peas are 

 in fine shape. There is also a limited 

 quantity of snapdragon coming in. 



Various Notes. 



Anders Easmussen and wife are at- 

 tending the National Flower Show at 

 New York. 



It has been reported that Mrs. C. W. 

 Beimers is going to locate at Fourth 

 avenue and Broadway in the near 

 future. This section of the retail dis- 

 trict has made wonderful progress dur- 

 ing the last few years. 



Beutel & Frederick reported their 

 best Easter trade. 



All of the downtown stores report 

 business as fair, considering weather 

 conditions. 



The monthly meeting of the Ken- 

 tucky Society of Florists was held at 

 the store of Secretary A. B. Baumer, 

 April 2. A paper on combined adver- 

 tising was read by Mr. Baumer. 



John Hettinger, foreman for Jacob 

 Schulz, is supplying the store with well- 

 grown Tausendschons, which are find- 

 ing ready sale. 



F. Walker & Co. have been display- 

 ing pretty hydrangeas. G. E. S. 



NEW HAVEN, CONN. 



The Market. 



Business has been quieter during the 

 last week, although funeral orders 

 have been exceptionally heavy. Choice 

 violets, roses and carnations are com- 

 ing in and are selling well. Bulbous 

 stock is practically over, with the ex- 

 ception of a few daffodils. Two or 

 three department stores are advertis- 

 ing cut flowers cheap, which materially 

 affects the retail florist. 



* Various Notes. 



Some of the local florists are taking 

 in tbe International ii^ower StiOF this 

 week.

were displayed choice antirrhinums, 

 which sold readily. They had a spe- 

 cial on violets April 5, at 25 cents per 

 bunch, which cleaned up all the stock 

 they had. 



The New Haven Nurseries Co. is 

 rushed with orders, reporting consider- 

 able out-of-town work. 



Max Krauss, of Davenport avenue, 

 is sending in some exceptionally well 

 grown azaleas. He recently has pur- 

 chased a fine auto delivery car, which 

 he finds most useful in delivering his 

 stock. 



The S. H. Moore Co. reports trade as 

 being rather quiet, but funeral orders 

 are heavy. 



The Doolittle Floral Co., having re- 

 covered from its Easter rush, is busy 

 getting its enormous stock of bedding 

 plants in shape for Decoration day. 



Jos. J. Sokol is sending in an excep- 

 tionally fine strain of pansy plants, 

 which he has no trouble in disposing 

 of. 



Charles Munro is receiving choice 

 Killarney roses from his greenhouses 

 on Townsend avenue. Table decora- 

 tions and funeral orders have kept him 

 busy all the week. 



Wm. H. Long continues to receive 

 choice roses from his brother's place 

 in East Haven. M. B. F. 



Winston-Salem, N. O. — Martin Mc- 

 Nulty, who began business here about 

 five years ago, now has nearly 20,000 

 square feet of glass, besides his nurs- 

 ery at the intersection of the Boulevard 

 and Sunset Drive, and he expects to 

 find it necessary soon to build another 

 addition to his greenhouses, if trade 

 continues to increase at its present rate. 

 He has plenty of room for expansion, 

 as he owns over seven acres of suifafcle 

 land in Highland Heilghts.

In bu3ring a typewriter you want a

 in mind, the L. C. Smith & Bros. Type- 

 writer Company has attained the front 

 rank in the typewriter field.
