 before. Not only were the Easter sales 

 eclipsed, but Christmas also was reduced 

 to second place. The big records were 

 due principally to the Halls, Tenn., crop 

 of peonies consigned by the Gould Nurs- 

 ery, about 10,000 dozens, which sold 

 at from $1.25 to $2 per dozen, mostly at 

 15 cents per flower. 



1. Sosnosky, who came home for the 

 busy interval before Mothers' day, left 

 May 9 for a trip which will take him 

 to Washington, Philadelphia, New York 

 and Boston. He says there is no trouble 

 to take orders, unless the florist is too 

 busy to talk; the trouble lies only in

Jegen, Florist, 1149 North State

business in the firm's history and, in 

 fact, a larger business this season than 

 ever before. Many telegraph delivery
