Various Notes. 



Samuel Feast & Sons had the largest 

 share of the work for the funeral of 

 Charles Von Hollen Kalkman, an officer 

 of the Consolidated Coal Co., who died 

 in New York. His body was brought 

 to Baltimore for burial at Sykesville, as 

 the headquarters and home office of the 

 company are in this city, and most of its 

 members reside here. Aside from this, 

 Samuel Feast & Sons had a large busi- 

 ness, principally from New York, 

 through the F. T. D. Mrs. Fannie Hill 

 was on her vacation, which she spent 

 this year at Asbury Park, leaving the 

 burden of the work on Gilbert Daily 

 and a short staff of assistants. How- 

 ever, Gilbert Daily can be depended 

 upon in any emergency. 



Another large funeral from a florist's 

 standpoint was that of Mrs. Dr. Mac- 

 Gill, who had spent the better part of 

 her eighty-five years of life at her home 

 in Catonsville. Her home being adjacent 

 to the range of John Cook, and many of 

 Mrs. McGill's friends being Mr. Cook's 

 customers, most of this work went to 

 him. A pall of purple asters for the im- 

 mediate family was one of the finest 

 pieces of work seen in Baltimore for 

 some time. It took five trucks to deliver 

 the Cook orders for this funeral. 



One of the best white roses for sum- 

 mer blooming I have ever seen is Mrs. 

 John Cook. A vase of these recently 

 shown me surpasses anything on the 

 market at the present time. The blooms 

 are double, on good stiff stems, pure 

 white, and a fine keeper. It will be on 

 the market in 1920. A. N. Pierson will 

 bring it out. 



The next meeting of the Florists' Club 

 will be held in the Royal Arcanum build- 

 ing, September 8. This will be one of 

 the most important meetings of the year. 

 At this meeting new officers for the en- 

 suing year will be nominated for the 

 elpj'+ion at the October meeting. If any 

 member of the club has anything in 

 bloom of which he feels proud, the ex- 

 hibition committee will be glad to have 

 him bring it to the meeting. There

One of the most optimistic florists in 

 Baltimore over the outlook for business 

 is William F. Keys, Jr. He is making 

 preparations for the largest business in 



his history. He has recently opened a 

 branch store at 1731 Harford avenue. 

 Both this and the original store at 1520 

 East Chase street are in fine residential 

 sections of the city. One of Mr. Keys' 

 best ventures is a membership in the
