Januaby 12. 1005. 



•l^>f': 



KALAMAZOO. MICH. 



Christinas was at least twenty per cent 

 better than laat year. Plants, cut flowers 

 and greens sold equally well. The stores 

 were finely decorated. Azaleas, lilies, 

 cyclamens, primroses, etc., were much in 

 evidence. G. Van Bochove & Bro. had a 

 very handsome display, and so did the 

 Central Michigan Nursery's store. One 

 window was decorated with a winter land- 

 scape. The other was devoted to pot 

 plants. The Dunkley Floral Co. had some 

 designs made up in New York style and 

 also showed pot plants. New Year's 

 trade was also very good and demand is 

 good all around. H. M. 



THOMPSONVILLE, CONN. 



Chester F. Brainard, who for the past 

 six years has been in the employ of his 

 brother, D. Wm. Brainard, has pur- 

 chased from F. N. Allen a tract of about 

 ten acres of land known as the J. B. 

 Allen farm. The land is on the main 

 trolley line between Hartford and 

 Springfield, in the north end of the vil- 

 lage of Thompsonville. Mr. Brainard 

 expects to start into the nursery, plant 

 and bulb business this coming spring, 

 though it is his plan to work into the 

 wholesale florist's business as well. Op- 

 erations will be commenced as soon as 

 possible in the spring and some building 

 tt'ill be done this season. 



ElCHMOND, IND.— Chas. Knopf, of the 

 B. K. & B. Floral Co., has the sym- 

 pathy of many friends in the recent death 

 of bis mother. 



Canton, O. — Fire destroyed stock 

 valued at $2,000 belonging to Chas. Lind- 

 acher, December 29. Mr. Lindacher re-
