buttons and gaillardias were much in 

 evidence last week. 



During the dull times most of the flo- 

 rists are preparing for the fall trade. 

 At the greenhouses old stock is being 

 thrown out and new benches being put 

 in. Chrysanthemums, poinsettias, ferns 

 and cyclamens look splendid and a good 

 fall trade seems assured. 



Various Notes. 



C. W. Johnson, of the A. L. Eandall 

 Co., Chicago, was here last week and 

 booked many orders for fall goods. 



L. L. May, while still quite ill, is 

 gradually improving. 



Business with Oscar E. Amundson is 

 excellent. Gladioli arranged in artis- 

 tic receptacles made a most pleasing 

 window display. 



The Chicago Avenue Floral Co. has a 

 fine lot of cyclamens of splendid size. 



The Chicago Avenue Greenhouses has 

 been busy with funeral work. This con- 

 cern has a splendid trade. 



The Eldridge Floral Co. carries a fine 

 stock of asters, lilies and roses. The 

 company reports this its first quiet week 

 of summer trade. 



Thomas H. Hall is cutting fine roses. 

 Business is good here. The greenhouses 

 are splendidly located and the stock al- 

 ways is of the best. Great care is ex- 

 ercised by Mr. Hall in all he does, 

 which accounts for the splendid trade. 



William F. Holmes had several large 

 funeral orders to fill last week, includ- 

 ing many handsome and original make- 

 ups. Mr. Holmes always carries a fine 

 quality of stock. 



The Lakewood Cemetery Association 

 is cutting fine rubrum lilies. It expects 

 to cut some splendid gladioli within a 

 few days. A splendid lot of Easter 

 lilies are coming into bloom. 



Miss H. B. Whitted reports business 

 good at her two stores. The force 

 turned out some excellent work for the 

 John W. Thomas funeral. 



George Mitchell, the Lake street flo- 

 rist, has returned from a splendid va- 

 cation. E. M. P. 



Akron, O.— The retailers of Akron 

 have signed an agreement whereby they 

 will not open for business Sundays, as 

 formerly. The exception to the rule is 

 when a holiday falls on the Sabbath,
