E. J. SHEEEIELD, Alvin, Texas 



A fair proportion of the spare time 

 of Philip C. Schupp, manager of the 

 J. A. Budlong wholesale house, is spent 

 invoking the weather man to send good 

 weather for the week ends, that he may 

 gratify his hobby of hunting for arti- 

 facts in the hidden corners of the 

 neighboring country. 



A e-passenger Oakland touring car 

 will help Joseph Zima, 3053 West 

 Twenty-second street, to enjoy the 

 pleasant days to come. His Overland 

 touring car is being converted into a 

 delivery truck. 



The arrival of a large shipment of 

 Blushing Bride gladiolus from a Mis- 

 souri forcer leads A. T. Pyfer to 

 comment on the diversified sources from 

 which this market draws its supplies at 

 this season of the year.

 J. J. Kolar, Jr., of J. J. Kolar & Son, 

 5136 West Twenty-fifth street, and 30 

 satisfied with business and life gener-

 cited into the speeders' court May 8 

 does not bother him. 



In speaking of the after-Easter busi- 

 ness, Miss O. A. Tonner, of O. A. & 

 L. A. Tonner, said she gave to a grower

 for exactly the same amount as that 

 given him for Easter week, only it 

 was in payment for a different line of 

 stock. She reports an unusually heavy 

 demand for Spanish iris. 



The southern farms of Kennicott 

 Bros. Co. are now sending regular ship- 

 ments of peonies to the Chicago market. 



Mathias Mann, of Zech & Mann, has 

 sold the vacant property, 125x125, at 

 the southwest corner of Clark street and 

 Pratt boulevard, for a reported con- 

 sideration of $25,000. 



Speaking of things being seasonable, 

 a T-passenger Paige touring car was 

 delivered to W. H. Amling, of May- 

 wood, May 3. 



If the Mothers' day and the Memo- 

 rial day business is proportionately as 

 good as the Easter business, Frank J. 

 Krai, 1907 South Halsted street, says 

 he will not complain. 



This is the big week of the season 

 in the seed stores^ where counter trade
