The demand for funeral flowers con- 

 tinues brisk and all stock is well cleaned 

 up. In addition to heavy calls of this 

 character- in this city there was a large 

 funeral recently in Helena that took 

 every flower that could be rustled. 



The decoration at the recent recep- 

 tion of the Elks in this city was one of 

 the most elaborate ever seen here. It 

 included a canopy of fir trees, containinj; 

 4,00U square feet, with 300 Japanese lan- 

 terns, containing electric lights, hanging 

 from the branches. It also required 200 

 pounds of Southern smila.x and 200 palm 

 leaves, the latter being used on the 

 walls. At one end of the hall was a 

 belfry made of Pennsylvania log moss, 

 with transparent clock dials indicating 

 the mystic hour of 11, and the chimes 

 of immortelles with electric efl'ect was 

 fine. At the other end of the hall was an 

 old fashioned fire place, with an old 

 camp kettle and a log fire with red 

 lights. At II o'clock a bell under the 

 tower struck 11 and all the lights were 

 turned out except those in the tower, the 

 whole assemblage counting the hour with 

 the bell. It was a vei-y beautiful and 

 striking efl'ect. Thousands of yards of 

 bunting were used in addition to other 

 material, and it took two days and two 

 nights to put it up. Jlr. O. A. C. Oehm- 

 ler, of the Butte Floral Co., had charge 

 of the decoration. 



Tlie Montana Florists' Club had a 

 meeting on February 21. After a ride 

 up the mountain for half an hour we 

 arrived at the snow covered Columbia 

 Gardens. Butte's only resort in the 

 "good old summer time." Nearly all of 

 the menuiers were present. Mr. Sicgel 

 received the hoys in royal style and the 

 meeting was held in the potting shed, 

 which had been especially prepared for 

 the occasion. After the routine business 

 was disposed of a sumptuous lunch was 

 served. Arrangements were made to es- 

 tablish a question box at the next meet-

programme the boys representing la- 

 dies having a piece of raffia tied to their 

 arms. Several square dances and a Vir- 

 ginia reel were danced, itr. Hanson did 

 the cake walk and was coached by Mike, 

 lae greenhouse parrot, after which a 

 few toasts were given. 



The club tendered a vote of thanks to 

 Mr. Siegel for the good things provided, 

 and he made a suitable response. All 

 the boys expressed their regret that the 

 club had not been organized a long time 

 ago. The president in a few words ex- 

 pressed the best wishes of the club for 

 the success of ilessrs. Conners and Johns- 

 ton in their new venture and regretted 

 that the club will lose two such bright 

 members from its rolls. After three 

 rousing cheers for ^Ir. Siegel the club 

 adjourned to meet on ilarch 14.
