two special trains yesterday. There was 

 tlie mounted guard, which will perform 

 "u Chicago police horses; the drill 

 Sijuad, the overseas squad, the band, the

Many Chicago florists are members of

Various Notes. 



July 1 the express company put into 

 use the new system of receipting for 

 shipments, doing away with the books 

 previously used and substituting a 

 blank in triplicate. The shipper keeps 

 one copy and two are used in the ex- 

 press system, but the shipper makes out 

 all three, with much greater care than 

 was required under the old method. The 



shippers do not like the new system be- 

 cause of the increased work involved. 



O. W. Frese says that if retailers will 

 look to the ventilation of their ice 

 boxes they will find, in many cases, the 

 cause of sleepy carnations. When a box 

 is properly cooled, the closing of flowers 

 usually is due to suffocation, not age, 

 according to his observation, and the 

 hint may be worth a good deal of money 

 to someone.

 the reception accorded the first two cars
