 market, but even this highly undesir- 

 able competition did not prevent the 

 cemetery florists doing a wonderful 

 trade Sunday and Monday. 

 Various Notes. 



The express company gave three 

 hours ' extra service for three days, May 

 27, 28 and 29, but there was no service 

 at all May 30 or 31 and only to 2 p. m. 

 since then. The wholesalers got their 

 Btuff to the depots the best way they 

 could after the company's short hours. 

 Many of them are beginning to wonder 

 how much longer they must put up with 

 a public carrier whose business day 

 ends at 2 p. m. Incidentally, there was 

 no mail from Saturday noon to Tuesday 

 morning. 



Hilmer V. Swenson states that the 

 S. A. F. Service Bureau, of which he 

 has charge, together with the oflBce of 

 the Allied Florists' Association and 

 that of H. V. Swenson & Co., will be 

 removed, July 1, from the Manhattan 

 building to larger, and better quarters 

 on the Link, just south of the new 

 bridge. "

 pass on, "'remarked N. J. Wictor as he 

 marked Killarney and "White Killarney

 thrown out by Wietor Bros., the space 

 to be replanted with rreniier and Co- 

 lumbia. They also have discarded Rich- 

 mond. 



H. C. Wendland is on a pleasure trip 



to the Pacific coast. 



Peter Reinberg will go to San Fran- 

 cisco to attend the Democratic national 

 convention. He will be accompanied 

 by Mrs. Reinberg and their son, Charles, 

 14 vears of age.

A. Miller, of the A. B. C, is on a

L. C. Sherer reports that on a pre- 

 Memorial day trip he sold over 100,000 

 peonies in two days, including what 

 probably was the market's record order 

 for this* season, .'30,000 to one customer.

 tributed $368 from the collection boxes 

 in the various members' shops to the
