Various Notes. 

 Edward Mallinson regards it as a dis- 

 tinct loss to the trade that all the local 

 growers have dropped American 

 Beauty. ' ' The Fleischman Floral Co., " 

 says Mr. Mallinson, "has a steady de- 

 mand for Beauties, from people who are 

 willing to pay any reasonable price for 

 what they want and who object to be- 

 ing sold something 'just as good.' " 

 Mr. Mallinson thinks it inconceivable 

 that Beauty does not pay the grower 

 at prevailing market prices. 



George V. Wienhoeber and C. J. 

 Michelsen are preparing to start in a

 igan. With their two Packard cars,

 feurs. Miss Peterson, who has charge 

 of the office work for the E. C. Amling 

 Co., will be the guest of the Michelsen 

 family. They plan to reach Lake Su- 

 perior and will use two or three weeks 

 for the trip. 



William Wienhoeber and his wife, 

 accompanied by Joseph Schouten, of the 

 E. Wienhoeber Co., and Fred Nelson, of 

 the George Wittbold Co., have returned 

 from a trip to Denver, made in Mr. 

 Wienhoeber 's chummy Moline-Knight. 

 Emil Buettner again is at Eagle 

 Kiver, Wis., where he has a summer cot- 

 tage. At the greenhouses at Park 

 Eidge, Superintendent Earl again is on 

 the job after his vacation and every- 

 thing is about set for the new season. 



Peter Pearson, who has acted as 

 chairman at the various meetings of 

 local bulb importers and forcers, states 

 that another meeting soon is to be held 

 to decide the methods of procedure as

 for losses or any extravagant costs.

 mette, is reported in this week's obit-
