Show FloTrcrg Dear In New Torlt, Violets cost only 50 cents a bunch, but the bunches aro very small. For 28 cents tho BrGadway florists mako up lit tie bunches for tho buttonhole of men's coats, but they contain only one-third of the original bunch. When a man makes that kind of purchase, he is likely to conclude that theiu is a violet trust or else that enough people aro not engaged la the cultivation of violets. The best chrysanthemums sol? on Broadway for $1 each. As cultivators would grow rich selling them at 5 cents each, some ono must be making good for the lato hard times. New York Correspondent |
