The Weekly Florists' Review, 



iUT 14, 1903. 



JOLIET, ILL. 



Tl)e bowlers from the Chicago Carna- 

 tion Company journeyed to Chicago on 

 Saturday, May 9, to roll the return 

 match with the McKcllar &, Winterson 

 team. The latter team won hands down. 

 This makes an even break, each team 

 having won a match. There is some talk 

 of the "rubber" being played at Blue 

 Island in the near future. After the 

 game last Saturday the home team took 

 the visitors over to the Vogelsang, where 

 a fine spread was awaiting them, and to 

 which full justice was done. After the 

 usual speeches and songs the Joliet boys 

 took their late train home, more than 

 pleased with the hospitality shown them, 

 which in a measure acted as a balm for 

 the defeat on the alleys. 



Mr. and IMrs. Richard Witterstaetter 

 paid us a visit on Sunday, while on their 

 honeymoon. Dick looking like a young 

 graduate from higli school and liis wife 

 as happy as the proverbial bride that 

 the sun shone on. They were married at 

 Cincinnati on May 7. 



Mr. and Mrs. ' Jas. Hartshoriic cele- 

 brated their tin wedding this week, look- 

 ing not a day older than when they were 

 married ten years ago. 



The Chicago Carnation Company has 

 received the required number of plants 

 of Fiancee to insure Dorner & Sons the 

 total amount of cash agreed to on the 

 contract. 



Jos. Labo reports a wonderful iiin on 

 bedding plants and otlier spring stock. 

 He has used up two cars of nursery 

 stock. The demand for this class of 

 stock beats anything ever l)efore experi- 

 enced in this town, duo in a measure to 

 the untiring efforts of the Improvement 

 Society and our local press. 



Tlie dry weather following the two 

 heavy frosts of two weeks ago is very 

 bad for the carnations planted out in 

 this loealitv. 



Mar,shall, Mo. — ^The Marshall Floral 

 Co, reports Easter trade as 50 per cent 

 better than last year. Everything was 

 cleaned up. Great call for roses and 

 carnations. Good sale on lilies and cal- 

 las. The Marshall Floral Co. will erect 

 two new houses, each 16.xl00, for carna- 

 tions.
