10, in the city and attended the club 

 meeting in the afternoon. 



At G. H. Angermueller 's all hands 

 are busy with the orders for Christ- 

 mas supplies. For both local and ship- 

 ping trade, velvet poinsettias, crepe 

 paper and red roping are in large de- 

 mand. 



The lack of sunshine for nearly two 

 weeks is showing its effect on the cut 

 stock o:^ the local growers, as practi- 

 cally all the colored stock is off color, 

 especially Killarney roses and sweet 

 peas. J. J. B. 



Monroe, Mich. — Otto Cron recently 

 entered the ranks of the benedicts. Miss 

 Alice Harrington, daughter of Capt. A. 

 I. Harrington, county treasurer-elect, 

 became his wife. 



Little Sock, Ark. — At the Democratic 

 primaries December 8 Paul M. Palez 

 was nominated for reelection as alder- 

 man from the Third ward, the vote 

 being 204 to 164. The Democratic nomi-

Sedalia, Mo. — L. H. Archias, presi 

 dent of the Archias Floral Co., says 

 business has improved rapidly in the 

 last few weeks and is fully equal to 

 if not better than last year. Several 

 weeks of dark weather have added to 

 the troubles of the growers, but stock 

 is in good condition for Christmas. 



Mobile, Ala. — H. P. Loding was re-

 and Horticultural Society at the reg- 

 ular monthly meeting December 3. The
