say it needs a two days ' steady rain to 

 be of real value to the field growing 

 stock. 



Ed. Kaliscli, head of the Kalisch 

 Bros. Floral CJo., could not resist the 

 temptation of the big fish stories goins; 

 the rounds; so he and a party of friends 

 started for the Ozarks to catch bass in 

 the Black river. A postal showing the 

 size of a fish he caught was received 

 from Mr. Kalisch. 



C. Young & Sons Co. held their 

 yearly stockholders ' meeting Jast yreek 

 in their offices at 1406 Olive street.

 manager of the greenhouse plant, Wil-

The old quarters of the Ellison Flo- 

 ral Co., at 4517 Olive street, are being 

 remodeled, and the show house on the 

 west side of the store is being re- 

 painted. It has been reported that the 

 place will reopen as a first-class flower 

 store this fall, but the new proprietors' 

 names have not been learned. 



Alexander Geranios, head of the Met- 

 ropolitan Floral Co., at Grand and 

 Olive streets, says his place is too small 

 and that he is looking for larger quar-

 fire in the basement under his store 

 caused ^im $300 damage to florists' 

 .supplies which he had stored there. 

 No damage was done to the store room. 



Guy Reburn, of A. Henderson & Co., 

 Chicago, was out among the trade last 

 week. Mr. Reburn stayed over this 

 week to see some of the fun at the 

 florists' picnic. He reports an excellent 

 trade all along the line. He is booming 

 the Boston S. A. F. convention,

 Mobile, Ala. Mr. and Mrs. Frank X. 

 Gorly are preparing for an eastern

 week. Arrangements have been made 

 to give- each of their- employees a 

 week's vacation during the summer 

 months.
