out clean Saturday night. He also had a 

 good cut of liberty. It was far and 

 away his best Christinas. 



John Poehlmann says that their sales 

 for Christmas week were sixty-six per 

 cent ahead of the same periou in 1903. 

 They have over 100,000 feet more glass 

 this season, but even at that it speaks 

 for a good cut. 



Ed Winterson ' did not go out of the 

 store Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or 

 Friday nights. 



The staff at J. A. Budlong's store re- 

 paired to the greenhouses after supper 

 Friday night and staid there until six 

 o'clock Saturday morning, grading and 

 packing stock for Saturday's delivery 

 to the retailers. 



Weiland & Risch had a tremendous cut 

 of Maids of the ' ' double extra ' ' variety. 



E. E. Pieser says that the only thing 

 he didn't like about Christmas was the 

 way the violet market acted. They could 

 have used more of everything else. 



The eWorld 's Fair Flower Show Asso- 

 ciation on December 23 returned to guar- 

 antors the twenty per cent assessment 

 levied late in October to meet prelim- 

 inary expenses of the St. Louis show. 

 Possibly it was in the nature of a Christ- 

 mas present. There is also a New Year 's 

 gift in prospect. 



E. C. Amling says that one of the 

 most pleasing features of the Christmas 

 business was the way the carnations 

 traveled. 



An out-of-town buyer cannot lose his 

 standing quicker than by refusing a C. 

 O. D. A buyer in Missouri did this on 

 an order for $37 shipped him by a local 

 house on December 17. The box was or- 

 dered returned, unpacked and put in the 

 icebox. On Saturday night, just a week 

 after the first shipment, the stock was 

 sold over the counter to a man with his 

 eyes open for more than it was originally 

 billed out for. 



Carl Thomas, secretary of the A. Ii. 

 Randall oo., says that in his opinion the 

 warm weather Friday took hundreds of 

 dollars of value out of the Christmas 

 stock. A. L. Randall says they had over 

 60,000 violets sold on advance orders. 



Weiland & Risch had an order for 

 shipment yesterday for 475 select strings 

 of asparagus.

Dreer's Superb Double Petunias 



For nearly half a century we have been making a specialty of DOUBLE PETUITIAS and our 

 strain is accepted as second to none, either here or in Europe. We annually plant many thousand 

 seedlinKs from which only the finet't double fringed forms are selected for propagatinR: purposes, thus 

 improTing the strain every season, and this year's collection is the brightest and most pleasing one 

 we have yet sent out. We oSer 15 distinct varieties.

 and later with others, is now with E. 

 Wienhoeber Co. 



W. N. Rudd has decided to send out 

 two of his carnations this year, Phyllis, 

 light pink, and Chicago white. Winter- 

 son has handled both sorts for two sea- 

 sons and the buyers like them both. 



Peter Reinberg is getting a big cut of 

 Uncle John with very fine color. 



Wietor Bros, are cutting extra quality 

 carnations. 



The Benthey-Coatsworth Co. is get- 

 ting very fine Liberty from two-year-old 

 plants. 



There was a meeting on Tuesday af- 

 ternoon of the general committee in 

 charge of the Carnation Society entertain- 

 ment. The preparations will now be 



pushed, for the meeting is only a month 

 away. 



The friends of Graff Bros., Chicago 

 boys, are sorry to hear that they were 

 burneu out at Columbus, O., December 

 21. 



It is reported that the Indianapolis 

 Floral Co., Indianapolis, has ceased to do 

 business. Registered mail is delivered, 

 however, and receipted for by Mrs. E. 

 Furnas, presumably formerly of Sheri- 

 dan, Ind.
