 I'cter Pearson had the best Mothers' 

 day liusiness in all his experience. It 

 was wholesaU- trade. He had quantities 

 of hyacinths, tulips and jonquils, in pots 

 and box(^s and cut. He worked it 

 nicely by advancing the plants to where 

 they began to show color and then put- 



ting them in cold storage until about 

 three days before he wanted them for 

 (hdivery to his customers. 



Otto Gocrisch collided with one of the 

 icebo.x doors in the store of Zech & 

 Mann May 13. He received a l)low on 

 the forehead so severe that he lost con- 

 sciousness for a few moments and sev- 

 eral stitches were necessary to close 

 the cut. 



The new City Floral Co. bought a case 

 of valley pips and planted them up, 

 twelve, fifteen and eighteen in a pot.
