nave miners been more prosperous

the foreign born miners, seeing

Europe, taking with them sums
which in their old homes will be re-
garded as small fortunes.
Those who remain will soon be-
gin to draw upon their savings for

over two hundred thousand men of

New Orleans, La, April s.
Warmer weather and preparations
for Easter have been rushed and
marked betterment in sales is look
ed for. The largest gains have been
made in silks, light underwear, mil
linery, gloves and hosiery. House
hold goods and furniture are some
one less active.
Wholesale trade is holding up
well except in a few lines. although
sales of drygoods are somewhat
smaller owing to the fact that in
terror retailers covered their needs
pretty well last month. Fear of
foods in the Mississippi valley is
restricting trade to some extent. In
vestment bankers and brokers re-
port the best demand for invest
ment securities they have had for
many months and are finding 1T diff
ficult to secure enough attractive
new issues to supply it.
Shipment of early vegetables has
been delayed by the freeze of last
month and is not expected to begin
in earnest until about April Is.
Planting has been heavy despite the
fact that returns from winter ship
ments did not meet expectations.

HOMEGROWN EASTER LILIES
Experiments Made by the United
States Department Of Agriculture
Have Been Successful.

When it first became known that ex-
periments in raising Easter lilies from
seed were being carried on by the De-
partment of Agriculture, few florists
were prepared to believe that the
undertaking possessed any commercial
value beyond the possibilities Of pro-
ducing new hybrids. The results Of
these experiments, which have now
been carried on for four years, indi-
cate, the department specialists be-
lieve, that this country can develop an
important industry.
On the Arlington experimental farm,
which is just across the Potomac river
from Washington, department special
lists produce the lily seeds in green
houses by artificial pollipation: These
seed are planted about January /,
pricked out into small pots, and in
May the young plants are set in the
open ground. They develop rapidly,
and by July or August some of the
plants reach sufficient size to bear
blooms. In October or November the
