NEWS NOTES. 



Dalton, Mass.— J. R. Shield, for the 

 last sixteen years superintendent for 

 Mr. F. G. Cram, has resigned his posi 

 tion and will enter the commercial 

 line, having bought a greenhouse es- 

 tablishment in YVoburn, Mass., where 

 he will take possession, February 1st, 

 1912. 



Fall River, Mass. — The Watuppa 

 water board has decided not to build 

 a greenhouse as it was found that the 

 lowest bid for its construction was 

 higher than was looked for. The 

 board has decided to see if the plants 

 cannot be stored in the park commis- 

 sion greenhouse. 



Victoria, B. C. — Brown Bros., of Van- 

 couver, have purchased the store and 

 greenhouses of the Fairview Esqui- 

 mau Greenhouses. A new location for 

 the store has been secured and the 

 present store will only be continued 

 till the new location is ready. Mr. 

 Bornhoft is the new manager. 



Providence, R. I. — William Patry has 

 purchased the retail store of O. S. 

 Hughes, which the latter opened about 

 six weeks ago. 



Leo Engal has opened a new retail 

 store known as The Rosery at 305 

 Weybosset street. Mr. Engal also con- 

 ducts the flower department of one of 

 the large department stores here. 



Boston, Mass. — The Flower Growers' 

 Sales Co., Inc., have opened an office 

 at la Park street with W. H. Welchans 

 as business manager. They have a 

 good basement under the new store 

 and a line of plants will be carried 

 which could not be done in the old lo- 

 cation. A large refrigerator is being 

 built at the back of the store. The 

 stalls in the flower market will be re- 

 tained for a time at least.
