of two sizes, one twice as large as the 

 other. His label is on every box. With 

 good stock and careful packing he has 

 quickly gained the confidence of the 

 buyers, which will be a valuable asset 

 as long as the standard is maintained. 

 Other shippers put red berries in all 

 sorts of second-hand wood boxes, per- 

 haps no two containing the same quan- 

 tity or quality. AVith a standard estab- 

 lished, it will be increasingly difficult 

 to sell the shoebox shipments. 



A. T. Pyfer says there will be a 

 fine sale for rooted cuttings of Peerless 

 Pink carnation after the new year, as 

 he has yet to hear of a grower it has 

 not done well with. 



Winterson's Seed Store is sold out 

 of field-grown carnation plants. "The 



little classified ad brought home the 

 bacon, ' ' according to J. P. Degnan. 



The A. L. Randall Co. received its 

 first car of holly this week. Plans 

 have been made for a large business 

 in Christmas greens this season. 



A. L. Vaughan comments on the dis- 

 position of shippers to skimp on the 

 quantity of boxwood in order to meet 

 competition in prices. He suggests 

 that purchases be made by weight only. 



A few months ago Fred Hunt took 

 up his residence at Des Plaines, letting 

 one of the men have the dwelling 

 adjoining the greenhouses. The ship- 

 ments, to Erne & Klingel, now come 

 from Des Plaines instead of Park 

 Ridge, as heretofore. Mr. Hunt is just 

 cleaning up his mums. He will follow 



them with calendulas, lupines and the 

 other ' ' old-fashioned flowers ' ' on 

 which he specializes. 



The mum benches at the Poehlmaun 

 range are rapidly being cleaned out 

 and lilies are taking the place of the 

 mums. Poehlmann Bros. Co. has de- 

 voted over 125,000 square feet to 

 Christmas plants. 



E. B. Washburn and Mrs. Washburn 

 left November 22 for their home at 

 Pasadena. They have visited relatives 

 here since October 11. 



Paul Klingspom, of the Chicago 

 Flower Growers' Association, made a 

 short trip to Kansas City last week 

 on a personal matter. 



E. C. Amling thinks conditions will 

 be about normal after Thanksgiving.
