ly blanket of them last week. Bulbous 

 stock of all kinds continues plentiful 

 and selling at the lowest prices of the 

 season to date. Southern stock begins 

 to be a factor. Easter lilies are in 

 quite -heavy supply in certain quarters 

 and some fine rubrums are seen. Callas 

 also ar3 more abundant than hereto- 

 fore. 



Following the shortage of Mexican 

 ivy, so much of this article has been 

 called in that prices have been de- 

 pressed to a point where there seems 

 littl') profit in it.- Otherwise the greens 

 market is unchanged. 



Vaxlous Notes. 



S. Freund, widely known in the trade 

 as sales manager for the A. A. Arnold 

 Paper Box Co., has become associated 

 with the Morris Paper Manufacturing 

 Co., Morris, 111., which is preparing to 

 make a line of florists' boxes. Mr. 

 Freund 's headquarters will be in the 

 Chicago ofl&ce of the company, in the 

 Harris Trust building. 



It is evident to the most casual ob- 

 server that Henry Van Gelder, presi- 

 dent of iPercy Jones,- Inc., is an ardent 

 believer .in the established truth that 

 appearances count, for he generally 

 manages to have his place as neat as a 

 new pin, more like a display room 

 than like the average wholesale store. 



A new flower store was opened at 

 2558 North Clark street March 10, by 

 L. Beckers. 



Eeturning March 5 from one of his 

 periodical trips to California, where he 

 and three friends have large partner- 

 ship orchard interests, Fritz Bahr is 

 more enthusiastic than ever. He plans 

 his next trip for August. 



The Easter lilies at Anton Then 's 

 this season number 15,000 pots. He 

 8UJ8 that some of his neighbors will 

 have to keep their stock prettv warm 

 to l^e /eady, bu4 he 'can^Jiot'' see aiiy-' 

 thing that looks like a shortage. Nev- 

 theless, he counts everj' Easter pot 

 plant as good as sold.
