Various Notes. 



Commencing April 2, Thomas F. Gal- 

 vin, Sr., associated himself with his son, 

 T. i\ Galvin, .Tr., in the retail florists' 

 business at 226 Devonshire street, near 

 the corner of Franklin street. Owing 

 to changed conditions in the florists' 

 business, Mr. Galvin decided that he 

 could serve his many customers to much 

 better advantage from this central lo- 

 cation in the heart of the wholesale 

 flower district, which enabled him at all 

 times to obtain the pick of the market, 

 and sell flowers at a distinct reduction 

 in price. Forty years' experience in 

 buying, selecting and arranging flowers 

 for all occasions, added to the popu- 

 larity of T. F. Galvin, Jr., and the fact 

 that he had already built up a splendid 

 business on Devonshire street, should 

 make this one of the busiest flower 

 marts in Boston and the writer cordially 

 wishes it increased success. 



Announcement that Marcellus A. 

 Patten, the noted carnation specialist, 

 of Tewksbury, had sold out all interests 

 there to his son, Harold J. Fatten, and 

 had determined to make his home here- 

 after at Lakeland, Fin., where he has 

 owned a sjilendid cottage and fruit 

 plantation for some years, interested 

 local growers a great deal. Mr. Patten's 

 elder son, Wilbur A. I'atten, also hopes 

 to locate in Florida and may take up 

 propagating or similar work for the 

 United States government. M. A. Pat- 

 ten, the founder of the carnation estab- 

 lishment at Tewksbury, was born in 

 Lowell, December 4, 184!), and after 

 graduating from the high school there 

 started to learn the florists' business 

 with Wieland Bros., Cambridge, later 

 going to W. C. Strong's, in Waban. In 

 1890 he started in business at Lowell, 

 on West Fourth street, under the title 

 of Patten «& Co., remaining there nearly 

 twenty years. He moved to Tewksbury 

 ■ji 1890. Mr. Patten is an active man
