space he needs for a cut flower depart- 

 ment. 



The Geo. Wittbold Co. had a big dec- 

 oration for Stevens' last week, and this 

 week have big work on at Field's, Car- 

 Bon-Pirie's and Mandel's. 



N. C. Moore & Co. have a nice lot of 

 lilies for Easter plant sales. 



The Retailers' Association held its 

 regular meeting last Thursday evening. 

 The latest scheme of some of the mem- 

 bers is to induce the wholesalers to set 

 a minimum price for each day. 



The J. B. Beamud Co., in view of the 

 short supplies of smilax, points with 

 pride to the filling last week of one or- 

 der for 650 strings. 



Grace B. Hughes has been granted a 

 divorce from Leslie C, Hughes, who was 

 charged with cruelty. The greenhouses 

 at Ridgeway avenue and Douglas Park 

 boulevard have been conducted under the 

 name of Mrs. Hughes. 



Joseph Pink, one of the veteran flo- 

 rists on the north side, wishes his son 

 Michael to take charge of his business, 

 and the latter therefore offers for sale 

 the Mulder place on Cottage Grove ave- 

 nue, which he bought a year or so ago. 



W. W. Randall, of the A. L. Randall 

 Co., has returned from West Baden well 

 rested up for the Easter rush. 



A. H. Budlong is very enthusiastic 

 over grafted roses. They have had good 

 success this year, but plan something 

 very much better for next season. 



L. Coatsworth is very anxious for 

 good weather, to begin work on the 

 Benthey-Coatsworth Co. 's new houses at 

 New Castle. 



At E, H. Hunt's they are very busy 

 shipping the season 's output of birch- 

 bark ware. 



O. W. Frese, at Poehlmann 's, states 

 that their crops are now double what 

 they have been in the past fortnight. 



The E. P. Winterson Co. reports very 

 good demand for Easter plants. 



E. C. Amling says he is shipping smi- 

 lax to Philadelphia and equally far west. 

 It appears that crops are off very gen- 

 erally throughout the country. 



Among last week's visitors were E. J. 

 Fancourt, of Pennock's, Philadelphia, 

 and C, S. Ford, also of Philadelphia. 

 Mr. Ford says that there are now thirty 

 men on the road in the United States 

 selling florists' supplies. Among those 



in town this week are A. Siegel and his 

 partner, John Burke, from St. Louis. 



Peter Reinberg is busy campaigning 

 this week. The election takes place next 

 Tuesday. 



G. N. Garland, formerly a carnation 

 grower for George Reinberg, has gone t6 

 Washington, Pa., to become foreman for 

 J. H. Seaman & Co. 



H. N. Bruns reports business good. 

 He will have a big cut for Easter and 

 expects also to dispose of many pots 

 and pans of valley. 



The Foley Mfg. Co. has distributed 

 its new catalogue to the trade. It is 

 full of halftones from photographs of 

 the plants it has erected, and as an evi- 

 dence of the extent of territory covered 

 it is worth while noting that places in 

 Texas, Alabama, Maryland, Massa- 

 chusetts, Minnesota and Nebraska are 

 pictured. 



Toronto, Ont. — John H, Dunlop says 

 that he finds the demand exceedingly 

 heavy this season for carnation rooted 

 cuttings; in fact, so heavy that he has 

 to buy to fill orders. Business is good 

 with him in all departments.
