December 30. 1920 



street, reports the biggest Christmas 

 business she ever had. 



The Coh)nial Flower Shoppe, the latest 

 bidder for popular patronage, exceeded 

 all its anticipations. Located in the 

 heart of the financial section, it reaped 

 a good harvest. 



Johnston Bros, furnished the immense 

 12-foot laurel wreath for the Provi- 

 dence Journal Co. again this year, for 

 the twentieth-odd season. 



Ed Brooke, of T. J. Johnston & Co., 

 said he was too tired to say anything 

 about business. "Just say they cleaned 

 me out, and that's enough." 



Thomas Curley, the veteran grower 

 of Harkness street, cut several hundred 

 fine poinsettias, besides furnishing many 

 blooming plants in small pots and pans. 



Various Notes. 



Charles Forbes reports an unusually 

 large run of funeral work recently. 



Fred Dietz, 24 French street, had a 

 large casket cover of roses and a num- 

 ber of pieces for a funeral last week. 



John Johnston, of Johnston Bros., 

 was a recent business visitor in Boston 

 and vicinity. 



"William Doel, of Pascoag, B. I., was in 

 town last week looking for final sup- 

 plies for the holidays. 



Willis S. Pino has been elected vice- 

 president of the New England Seed 

 Trade Association. 



Viewing the thousands of handsome 

 roses cut at the greenhouses of the Bud- 

 long Rose Co., Auburn, it would be hard 

 to make anyone believe that these 

 bushes received a tremendous beating 

 by hail and that nearly all the glass in 

 the houses was broken thereby, the lat- 

 ter part of September. It has been a 

 wonderful recuperation. W. H. M. 



Maxblehead, Mass. — James Mockford, 

 a grower at 21 Eockaway avenue, is just 

 recovering from the effect of the coal 

 shortage last season. Because of the 

 fact that he could get no coal, the stock 

 in his greenhouse, 18x100 feet, was 

 ruined February 3. It was 3 below zero 

 that day, with a gale blowing. The 

 pipes and pumps in the greenhouse 

 burst, eliminating all possible chance 

 to save any of the crop from freezing. 

 However, this year the prospects are 

 brighter and things are coming along 

 nicely.
