P. C. Schupp, at present vacationing 

 in Florida with his wife, was born De-

Various Notes. 



C. A. Samuelson has eonio in from his 

 Snake River farm to spend the holidays 

 in the store. Farm life lias many strong 

 attractions for him, but he enjoys two 

 or three weeks at the old business. 



Bassett & Washburn have had a dis- 

 play of cut Erica melanthera grown by 

 Roy Wilcox & Co., at Montebello, Cal. 

 The Wilcox concern has many thousands 

 of plants under lath houses and is ship- 

 ping large quantities of cut sprays, 

 which bring excellent prices, all the 

 way from 5 cents to 60 cents per spray. 



I. Rosnosky has returned from a two 

 months' trip through the south for the 

 A. B. C. President Miller also is at 

 home from a fortnight's visit to Cleve- 

 land, Cincinnati and other Ohio cities. 

 The A. B. C. had its third shipment of 

 valley pips in New York last week. 



Adolph Poehlmann is exploring the 

 east in quest of novelties and taking the 

 first vacation he has had in a long time. 



W. Abrahamson, who has charge of 

 the fixture department of the A. L. Ran- 

 dall Co., was in Memphis last week, 

 where the company is installing new 

 equipment for Johnson, the Flower Shop 

 and others. 



John T. Muir spent the week end at 

 his farm at Mears, Mich. 



J. P. Risch retains his liking for the 

 Mrs. Bayard Thayer rose. The Weiland- 

 Risch range at Evanston is the only one 

 in this vicinity sheltering this true flesh- 

 pink variety. Mr. Risch says it is popu-

 a little higher price than other sorts to 

 make it pay. 



Of the newer roses, E. Wienhoeber 

 thinks specially well of Victor, the E. G. 

 Hill seedling of which the entire stock 

 was acquired by Wendland & Keimel Co. 

 It most nearly resembles Killarney 

 Brilliant when that variety was at its 

 best. It is not as double as some peo- 



ple like a rose to be, but in size of 

 flower, color, stem and foliage it leaves 

 little to be desired. 



John Mangel has opened his new 

 branch in the Drake hotel, in charge 

 of C. H. Bookedis, and makes a hand- 

 some show. Nothing but the best will 

 be seen there.

 grown for corsage work, retains its
