district business has been big this sea- 

 son. J. M. Cochrane, who has green- 

 houses on West One-hundred-nineteenth 

 street and store at 11405 Michigan ave- 

 nue, has been one of the largest buyers 

 in the market. He does a big volume 

 of funeral work. 



Judges of exhibits at the Chicago 

 Florists' Club's meeting to be held Feb- 

 ruary 6, at the Randolph hotel, which 

 will be ' ' novelty night, ' ' are : Carnations, 

 C. W. Johnson, H. C. Blewitt and P. W. 

 Peterson; roses, N. J. Wietor, W. J. 

 Keimel and William G. Earle; miscella- 

 neous, Albert Ericson, George Ball and 

 George Asraus. 



It will be of interest to many retailers, 

 especially members of the Florists' Tele- 

 graph Delivery, that the Fleischman 

 Floral Co. now is a member of that as- 

 sociation. 



Russells have not lost any of their 

 popularity in the eyes of C. L. Wash- 

 burn, of Bassett & Washburn, who com- 

 ments on the excellent results this rose 

 has brought his firm this season. 



Many in the trade have wondered 

 what has become of Theodore Kirschen, 

 manager for Oscar Leistner. His where- 

 abouts is now known. He is in France 

 with the intelligence department of the 

 A. E. F., having landed at a French 

 port about Christmas time. 



Eric Johnson indicates the belief that 

 this month will go on record as the best 

 January ever known by the trade as a 

 whole. 



Word has come to a sister of Fred 

 Krauss that he is in Luxemburg and 

 has enlisted in the regular army for four 

 years. Before being drafted. May 27, 

 1918, he had been with E. F. Wintersori 

 for about fourteen years.
