Various Notes. 



It is tradition that half the flowers go 

 into funeral work. What, then, must 

 have been the effect on the business in 

 Chicago with only 2,768 deaths in Feb- 

 ruary, 1921, against 4,691 in the same 

 month last year? But Health Commis- 

 sioner Robertson warns of an impending 

 recurrence of influenza. If the disease 

 runs true to form, says Dr. Robertson, 

 another wave of tlie flu will arrive here

 orders, both for immediate shipment and 

 for Easter.

 Five men finished the reglazing March

 all broken by the shattered glass, and 

 other potted plants, including cinerarias 

 and begonias, primulas and geraniums, 

 were badly damaged.

 glass in last week's hail storm. With 

 a crew of seven men he got most of the 

 glass replaced next day. 



Joseph Einweck, formerly with Bas- 

 sett & Washburn, recently jjoined the 

 staff of the E. C. Amling Co. in the rose

THE STORY of selling satisfactory stock and 

 its safe delivery becomes an old 

 one with us after 40 years of 

 wholesale cut flower service — the 

 primary principle upon which we 

 built this business.
