 dropped. 



Peter Eeinberg is solicitous for the 

 country people and has presented to the 

 board of county commissioners, of which 

 he is president, a resolution providing 

 that all lots in the county in the future 

 shall be not less than 33% feet wide 

 and not less than 130 feet long. Eeal 

 estate dealers opening subdivisions in 

 the county in the past have sold lots 

 measuring 25x100 feet. The resolution 

 also provides that the streets shall be 

 not less than sixty-six feet. 



May 1 the Garfield Flower Shop, 211 

 East Garfield boulevard, will move into 

 its new home at 302 East Garfield boule- 

 vard. Dinger & Black, the proprietors, 

 are well pleased with their choice and 

 expect to help it along with a large 

 electric display sign. 



Believing in the policy of planting 

 only a few varieties, Wietor Bros., who 

 are among the largest carnation growers 

 in the United States, have relied on only 

 a half dozen main crop varieties. But 

 N. J. Wietor believes Enchantress soon 

 will have to be dropped and they are 

 looking for something to take its place. 

 Alice will be tried this season and Pink 

 Delight will have a test. Matchless is 

 being added to the list of whites. 



At the C. A. Samuelson store on Mich- 

 igan avenue an excellent season is re- 

 ported. From December to Lent, dinner 

 work was unusually good and since Ash 

 Wednesday a steady run of the better 

 class of funeral work has kept things 

 moving. 



According to August Poehlmann, the 

 sale of Mrs. Russell rose plants has 

 beaten everything in the history of 

 Poehlmann Bros. Co., and for the time 

 being he has withdrawn his offer, to 

 avoid overselling. John Poehlmann, 

 who has been ill for a fortnight, is 

 again putting in full time at the store 

 and expressed satisfaction with the 

 business for the first half of March, the 

 record of sales footing up ahead of last 

 year. Spanish iris was cut March 13, 

 believed to be the first in the market 

 this year. 



That Primula obconica is going out 

 of favor because of its poisonous quali- 

 ties is the belief of Anton Then, who 

 says several retailers have given this as
