Trade has slackened up quite noticea- bly this week, about the only stir in busi- ness being an occasional good call for funeral work. Society has let down for the time being and very little is doing with that set. Stock is rather plentiful and with good bright weather ever)' day (juality is generally very fine. There are some excellent Beauties now, the long- stemmed being best. These meet with food sale, while the shorter stock hangs re. A rose that is proving very popular this season and is now at its best is Chatenay. When well open there is noth- ing prettier and with us it is a grand keeper, not that we keep them long, but it gives good satisfaction to those who buy them. Carnations are coming in very fast but still command a good price, white ones being in best demand on account of funeral work. Violets are in over-supply. Bulbous stock moves slowly outside of what is used in work. The hrst tulips are in but as yet are too short-stemmed to do any good. B. Nashville, Tenn. HOLIDAY TRADE ECLIPSES ALL RECORDS.— STOCK FOR ALL DEMANDS. — VARIOIS NOTES. The holiday trade in this city surpassed even the most sanguine expectations. Stock was abundant. Plants were espe- cial!}' in evidence. Geny Brothers had an especially fine stock of azaleas, fine bushy plants, well flowered, and of the choicest colors. Roses were not so abundant, though the trade seemed to get what it wanted. Beauty was particularly scarce. The roses, however, in quality and brought good prices. Joy & Son had a fine stock. Violets were not so plentiful. The prices realized this year were quite an advance,,overjprevious years. , , M. C. DORRIS.
