Notes. 



A well attended club meeting was held 

 Thursday evening at the club's new quar- 

 ters in the St. Charles hotel. Prelimi- 

 nary business toward the next meeting 

 of the S. A. F. was taken up. Arrange- 

 ments for the exhibition hall were decid- 

 ed on and will be completed upon the 

 visit of the executive committee this 

 spring. The club will hold a regular 

 meeting the second Tuesday of eacli 

 month, and will also bowl regularly the 

 first and third Tuesdays in each month. 

 Two rival bowling teams will be organ- 

 ized among the wholesalers, growers and 

 retailers and the best men will be .se- 

 lected to compete against all comers dur- 

 ing the convention. 



Margaret Edlefsen, who for some 

 years has had charge of William Edlef- 

 sen's retail store, Avas married Monday 

 evening to H. Kroseberg, of Chicago, 

 and will make her future home there. 



C. C. Pollworth has left for Cresco, 

 Iowa, to attend a convention of northern 

 Iowa and southern Minnesota florists.

 York, was a caller. C. 0. P. 



HAGER.STOWN, Md. — Henry A. Bester 

 added two houses, 22x180, last fall and 

 they are filled with carnations, which 

 are in the pink of condition. With these 

 he has six of the best houses in the 

 state. Tlie demand for his goods is 

 beyond his capacity to supply. Wm. 

 Bester also built during the fall, adding 

 four houses, each 20x150, and has them 

 filled with roses. Demand with him is 

 also in excess of supply, and if it con- 

 tinues a large number of the best type 

 of houses will be erected that will make 

 his plant surpass any in the state out- 

 side of Baltimore.
