Maucii Ki. 1!)22 



was $28(),l)00 li'ft in the treasury. He 

 said further tliat every cent had been 

 accounted for and all expenditures had 

 been legitimately made, which was con- 

 trary to the belief of a great many peo- 

 ple. It was thought that perhaps the 

 pageant would be extended from two 

 weeks to a montli this year. Mr. Asmus 

 also advocated a budget system for the 

 club finances. 



The following were elected to mem- 

 bership in the club: M. N. Duyts, pri- 

 vate gardener, Lake Forest; Fred Poetzl, 

 bulb department, American Bulb Co.; 

 C. Parker, supply department, Poehl- 

 mann Bros. Co.; N. Tyler, manager sup- 

 ply department, Poehlmann Bros. Co.; 

 J. K. Kugowski, aster specialist, Mani- 

 towoc, Wis.

Vaxious Notes. 



Started with the new ye:»r. Stieluw 

 Bros., at Xiles Center, expect to have 

 their new range of rose houses ready for 

 planting soon after the first of April, 

 (ilazing has been finished and many 

 growers in the Niles, Des Plaines and 

 Morton drove sections are jiaying visits 

 of ailmiration. It is said the range rep- 

 resents :i new investment of $()."), (lOO. 



Out at Kiverbank, at Ceneva, Charles 

 McCauley has been cutting some espe- 

 cially fine lilies, lie has olitaincd four, 

 five and even six flowers to the bulb and 

 the stems are long. He has lost prac- 

 tically none of the pliints and his only 

 regret is that, being from bullis potted 

 as soon as received last November, tlie 

 (•roil will be gone by Easter. The A. B. 

 C. has had an exhil)it of Mr. ^IcCaub'v's 

 lilies in its store for demonstration piir- 

 j)Oses. 



C. L. Washburn and Mrs. Washburn 

 have returned from a highly en.joyable 

 vacation visit to K. B. Washliurii and 

 family at Pasadena, Cal. Mr. Wash- 

 burn met many former Chicagoans now 

 in the trade on tiie coast and says lliey 

 all seem to be well and prosiKTous. 

 Business continues excellent in Los .\n- 

 geles. At the Bassett & Wiishluirn ])laco 

 at Sierra Madre another big sl.at jialni 

 house, 2.j()x48ll, is being built. 



Paul K. Klingsporn reports that witliin 

 .in liour, .\Iarcli 13, wlioles.'ilcrs in three 

 different cities called on the long-dis- 

 ta>'"e telephone in (|uest of Easter 

 lilies, taking \,?>()0 between them, which 

 shows how other markets may be su]i- 

 plied with lilies for the big day. 



A. A. Marti.'il, perhaps better known 

 as (ins, has returned to his t)ld position 

 with Poehlmann Bros. Co. 



C. J. Michelseii had so f;ir recovered
