The Foley Mfg. Co., Western Ave and 2eth St. CHICAGO. Lexington, Ky. Business for the past week has been about as good as can be expected for this time of year. The plant trade, however, still hangs on. All are busy at present getting ready for planting roses, carnations and chrysanthemums. Real summer weather is here at last and the thermometer registered 90° in the shade here last Saturday. Roses are not so plentiful as they have been.

Green goods are becoming more plentiful and the demand is good. NOTES. The boys at the J. A.

The loss was estimated at about $2,500 o
