George Asmus, in his capacity as 

 president of the Allied Florists' Asso- 

 ciation of niinois, was at Cleveland 

 March 14 to address a Sunday afternoon 

 gathering of the florists there, who pro- 

 pose to organize their publicity work 

 on the lines adopted in Chicago. J. F. 

 Ammann, secretary of the new national 

 growers ' association, also was there and 

 the two joined the Cleveland party 

 which went to the New York show. Mr. 

 Asmus had meetings of the S. A. F. pub- 

 licity finance committee and the na-

 of which he is chairman, to attend this

In a party which left March 15 to see 

 the New York show were George Wien- 

 hoeber, Henry Wehrman, W. J. Keimel 

 and Alex. Henderson. C. J. Michelsen,

 planned to go, stayed at home because 

 of conditions growing out of the express 

 strike. 



Paul B. Klingsporn left March 14 to 

 spend the next day at his old home in 

 Philadelphia. It was his fortieth birth- 

 day. Then Mr. Klingsporn went to New 

 York to spend a couple of days at the 

 spring flower show in progress there 

 this week and to attend meetings of 

 committees of the 8. A. F., of which he 

 is a director. 



The express strike alarmed Amling 

 Bros., of Des Plaines. The day it started 

 Joseph H. Hill Co., of Bichmond, 

 shipped them young stock of Premier to 

 the value of over $1,200 and it was

Requirement 



Of What and How Made. It includes a 

 strong cardboard foundation the outside 

 of which is covered with best quality 

 \yaterproof crepe paper with fiber ribbon 

 ties at top and bottom, and all firmly put

 offsets its cost.

 mattings and the like, it freely saves 

 flower store workers' time and avoids the 

 cost of high-priced materials.
