GENERAL NEWS NOTES 



In some of the western cities florists 

 have been greatly handicapped by lack 

 of fuel. The Pinehitrst Floral Co., at 

 Kansas City, Mo., has been obliged to 

 burn wood and has had twenty men 

 cutting and handling it. It is said 

 that the expense of getting this fuel 

 has averaged $300.00 a day. 



W. J. I'ilcher has been appointed 

 state vice-president of the S. A. F. for 

 eastern Missouri. 



The Missouri State Horticultural 

 Society has elected L. T. Connett of 

 St. Joseph, president. 



The wholesale florists' trade in New 

 York has been very much upset by the 

 invasion of the furriers. Several 

 meetings have been held of late to 

 consider the situation. It is quite 

 possible that a portion of the old 

 Seigel-Cooper store on 6th avenue will 

 be taken by the florists. The basement 

 of the Coogan Building is being re- 

 modeled and three or four wholesalers 

 will go there. 



The Associated Retail Florists of 

 New York have elected Geo. E. M. 

 Stumpp, president. 



Charles L. Atlee, long connected 

 with the W. Atlee Burpee Co., at Phil- 

 adelphia, has joined the John A. Salz- 

 er Seed Co., of La Crosse, Wis. He 

 will be manager of the mail order 

 division. 



Edward J. Hass has become head 

 gardener on the Bush estate near New- 

 port recently purchased by J. Francis 

 A. Clark. 



A new greenhouse, 42 x 150 feet, has 

 recently been built for Preisach Bros, 

 at Lerov, N. Y. 



NEW RETAIL STORE FOR 

 WESTERLY 



Munro, Incorporated, who recently 

 took over the Reuter Greenhouses, at 

 Westerly, R. I., has taken the store in 

 the Welch block on Broad street, for 

 merly occupied by Conrad Schultz, 

 and will open a retail store there in 

 charge of Miss Jessie Ahearn. The 

 interior of the store has been remod- 

 elled. The Reuter plant operated by 

 the same concern is being ruin by A. 

 E. Ralston as manager. Twenty-six of 

 the 31 greenhouses are now being op- 

 erated, and the manager says that by 

 spring all of the greenhouses will he 

 yielding flowers for the trade.
