curred last Friday morning on the Den- 

 ver & Rio Grande Eailroad, in which 

 twenty people were killed, nearly all be- 

 ing burned beyond recognition after the 

 collision. A greater number of them 

 were Denver people, the funerals of 

 whom are being held today and Monday, 

 all calling for every flower possible on 

 account of it. 



Various Notes. 



E. E. Petersen has returned from a 

 three weeks' trip east, buying material 

 for the construction of his two new 

 greenhouses. 



Recent visitors here were Frank Crump 

 and William H. Evans, of Colorado 

 Springs. 



The recent cold snap somewhat short- 

 ened the cut of carnations, but N. A. 

 Benson seems to be cutting just as fine 

 Enchantress and Lady Bountiful as 

 ever. E. S. K. 



DENVER. 



The Market 



The Lenten season has not yet caused 

 any abatement in the demand for flow- 

 ers, with the exception of a small por- 

 tion of the cut of Lawson carnations. 

 Stock of all kinds is well used up; even 

 bulbous flowers, usually a glut at this 

 time, are little in evidence after the de- 

 mands of the day are satisfied, while 

 white carnations and light pink varieties 

 are as scarce as at any time this season 

 and their prices are well maintained. 

 Roses are a little improved and the quan- 

 tity is increasing, but at no time has 

 the supply been more than the demand, 

 American Beauties in long stems being 

 very scarce. Violets were the only thing 

 that was there with the goods. 



There has perhaps never been a time 

 in the history of Denver when the city 

 has mourned the death of so many 

 prominent men as since January 1 of 

 the present year. Cattlemen, lumber- 

 men, insurance men, judges and other 

 names might be ^dded to the list, all of 

 which demanded an extra amount of 

 flowers for funeral purposes; so much 

 so there was some tall hustling among 

 the florists to fill their orders. 



Lilacs are commencing to come in, but 

 not in large quantities. St. Patrick's 

 day called for quite a little green goods, 

 but not many shamrocks were in evi- 

 dence; that is, the simon-pure article. 



One of the worst railroad disasters oc- 



pany has signed a lease with Mrs. Ann 

 M. Pulsifer for the use of the lower 

 store of the Pulsifer block at 144 Main 

 street. The business will be under the 

 management of Frank H. Mitchell, They 

 will do a wholesale and retail business. 



WATERVILLE, ME. 



Rev. H. R. Mitchell, of the firm of 

 H. R. Mitchell & Son Co., has disposed 

 of his interest in that concern to (ieorge 

 F. Terry. The company owns extensive 

 greenhouses at Highwood street and 

 Central avenue, and plans have been 

 made for the erection of large addi- 

 tional houses on the company 's property 

 in the upper section of the city, as well 

 as the opening of a new store on Main 

 street. For this latter purpose the com- 



Streator, III. — William F. Timme, 

 formerly with the Chicago Carnation 

 Co., Joliet, 111., is foreman at Finkler's 

 greenhouses. 



Columbia, S. C. — Mrs. J. M. Eison 

 says, ' ' We are only small alongside 

 some of your readers, but we are get- 

 ting there. ' ' Business has been good 

 this winter; there has been hardly any 

 cold weather at all. It has been a hard 

 time to hold bulbs, and there never were 

 better prospects for Easter lilies. 



St. Louis, Mich. — David Kleinhans, 

 of Cadillac, Mich., will soon build green- 

 houses on Saginaw street, three blocks 

 east of the postofiice, which will contain 

 at least 4,000 square feet of glass. Mr. 

 Kleinhans recently made a proposition to 

 the city authorities to the effect that he 

 would establish and maintain a green- 

 house for ten years provided he could 

 secure free water for that period. The 

 board of public works recommended that 

 the council enter into a contract with 

 Mr. Kleinhans to furnish him the neces- 

 sary water at a rate of $1 a year for 

 ten years. The contract has been signed 

 and the work of building will begin as 

 soon as possible.
