Elkhart, Ind. — W. H. Troyer has 

 sold his greenhouse and store on 

 South Main street to Samuel Jones 

 and C. H. Harrold of Knightstown, 

 Ind. 



The decorations of George Cooke 



won first prize, the Washington Post 

 loving cup, during the Auto Carnival 

 held at Washington, D. C, last week. 

 Cook & Stoddard won the McReynold's 

 trophy, a silver loving cup, with a 

 display done by J. H. Small & Sons. 



Chicago — Even the least optimistic 

 retail florists now frankly admit that 

 Valentine's Day as a florists' day was 

 worth while. It was surprising how 

 the people responded to the little ef-

fort that was made to secure the dol- 

 lars that valentine senders were so 

 willing to spend. One florist who ad- 

 ded a few suggestions to his usual 

 window display reaped a big harvest 

 in comparison and showed his long 

 order list to the writer. 



Baltimore — Business during the past 

 week has been good besides showing 

 quite a progress at this time over last 

 year. Orders for Valentine's Day 

 were fair with a supply enough to 

 meet the demand, while a still larger 

 business is predicted for Washington's 

 Day. 



Among some of the lovely floral dis- 

 plays new this year are handsome 

 baskets (heart-shaped in design), 

 made of gilded straw and of different 

 sizes. These hold flowers according 

 to their size. Bunches of violets, gar- 

 denias, sweet peas, orchids and roses, 

 all lend themselves to filling these 

 truly charming baskets. Floral de- 

 sign work has not been so very heavy, 

 but numerous decorations for wed- 

 dings and balls, have been undertaken.
