, The reports from the St. Valentine's 

 day business were, without exception, 

 better than ever before. Plants and lit- 

 tle novelties caught the eye of the trade. 

 Business last week has averaged equally 

 J2;ood. Prices are on the decline, and the 

 florists are looking for an increase in 

 the quantity of orders. Bulbous stock 

 is in profusion everywhere. 



' ■ Various Notes. 



Ari-^eStra amount of funeral work has 

 'kept the force at the Lantcrnier store 

 busy. One might almost call it "blanket 

 week," inasmuch as the call has been 

 for an unprecedented number of them. 



The Flick Floral Co. furnished elabor- 

 ate decorations for a bridge party that 

 was held in the ball room of the An- 

 thony hotel. The decorations consisted 

 of palms and ferns, large baskets of cut 

 flowers and blooming plants, all carrying 

 out the idea of spring. On each table 

 was a little basket containing four nose- 

 gays, which were later given to the 

 guests. This firm also furnished the 

 decorations for a luncheon at the Gold- 

 man home, where a largo number of 

 guests were entertained. The table 

 decorations consisted of large bunches 

 of roses and spring flowers and a small 

 colonial bouquet for each guest. 



The Kiiecht-Frecse Floral Co. has an 

 attractive new delivery car. 



The Doswcll IToral Co. was kept busy 

 last week with funeral work and the au- 

 tomobile show. S. N. 



PIqua, O. — Clarence McVcty has pur- 

 chased the Petersimer business here and 

 will go into the business of growing cut 

 flowers and plants for the trade.
