The foregoing copy of letter from 

 -Mr. Rasmussen is self explanatory, 

 and he lias given his consent to its 

 piililication. 



I will he pleased to receive commu- 

 nications from florists who will be 

 affected, and those who have sugges- 

 tions to make along this line. It seems 

 to he a rather serious matter, especi- 

 ally among the small florists who have 

 not their coal. Therefore, a general 

 expression on this subject Is asked for 

 at this time. 



1 am in communication with our 

 Washington representative, Mr. Gude, 

 and we will soon be advised as to what 

 can be done.
