Albion, N. Y., died at the General hos- 

 pital early Saturday, April 9, from inju- 

 ries received when he fell from the rear 

 of a florist 's truck in this city, the after 

 noon of Wednesday, April 6. Mr. Weil- 

 heimer sat in the rear of the truck and 

 a sudden lurch of the vehicle caused him 

 to fall. At first it was thought that he 

 was not seriously injured. Death, liow- 

 ever, was found to have been due to 

 three broken vertebra; in the neck, which 

 exerted pressure on the spinal cord. He 

 was the father of Mrs. Valentine Gatz, 

 of Albion, N. Y., and with Valentine 

 Gatz was in the city on a business trip. 



William H. Dildine, secretary and 

 treasurer of James Vick 's Sons, is able 

 to get down to his office occasionally. 

 He has been confined to his home and 

 the hospital since just before last 

 Christmas. He has suffered consider- 

 ably, but is making good progress now 

 and it is sincerely hoped that he will 

 make a complete recovery as the better 

 weather continues. 



The regular monthly meeting of tlie 

 Rochester Florists' Association was held 

 Friday evening, April 8, at the Osburn 

 House. The principal speaker of the 

 evening was Clinton R. Lyddon, presi- 

 dent of the Lyddon & Hanford Advertis- 

 ing Agency. His subject was, "How to 

 Increase Your Income by Advertising." 

 He pointed out the benefits from adver- 

 tising to be derived by florists and grow- 

 ers and urged them to do all in their 

 power to make their products more popu- 

 lar by this method. There was a good 

 attendance. More members would have 

 been present, but the heavy demands 

 now made at the greenhouses prevented 

 some from attending. A discussion fol- 

 lowed the speaker's remarks. 



Visitors last week included Valentine 

 Gatz, of Albion, N. Y., and Mr. and Mrs. 

 Quance, of Newark, N. Y. H. J. H. 



Akron, O. — E. Schwerdtfeger, the 

 proprietor of the North Hill Green- 

 houses, sent out cards to his customers 

 and friends inviting them to call at 

 the store and help celebrate the twenty- 

 fifth anniversary, which fell on April 

 13.
