window February 15 contained a large 

 violet colored frame enclosing a single 

 basket of yellow marguerites and single 

 violets, a far better way to advertise 

 these flowers than to crowd a window 

 full of them. 



Peter Hylen, of Eandolph, who is al- 

 ways a most successful bulb grower, 

 has the finest Golden Spur narcissi seen 

 this season. 



Philip S. Carbone sailed for Europe 

 February 8. He will make large pur- 

 chases in Italy, France, Great Britain 

 and other countries. He expects to be 

 away several months. W. N. C.

The Markets. 



A satisfactory volume of business is 

 the record of last week. St. Valen- 

 tine's day furnished evidence of the 

 fact that flowers are becoming increas- 

 ingly popular for the celebration of this 

 holiday. Flowers of all varieties sold 

 well, as did potted plants. 



Roses are of good quality and prices 

 on them remain the same. Carnations 

 have been plentiful, but the supply is 

 shortening up. Easter lilies are not in 

 the market. Snapdragon and violets 

 are scarce. Sweet peas, daffodils and 

 narcissi are sufficient for requirements, 

 but a sudden increase in the demand 

 would create a serious shortage. Cycla- 

 men, primroses, daffodils and a few cin- 

 erarias constitute the list of potted 

 stock. 



Club Meeting. 



The Tri-City Florists' Club met in 

 regular session at the residence of L. 

 Stapp, Rock Island, with a good attend- 

 ance. President H. G. Pauli, Daven- 

 port, presided. L. Stapp showed a vase 

 of Carnation Laddie, which was much 

 admired. The next meeting will be 

 held at the residence of William Knees, 

 March 13. 



Various Notes. 



L. Stapp has plans drawn for exten- 

 sive improvements under contemplation 

 at his range. They include a new boil- 

 er house, with better facilities for the 

 handling and storage of coal, also the 

 remodeling of the office and garage and 

 new barns. Mr. Stapp intends to pur- 

 chase a five-ton motor truck.
