Various Notes. 



William Fluegge, of Morton . Grove, 

 says he is well pleased with the quan- 

 tity and quality of his carnation crop 

 this year. At this season's prices he is 

 doing first rate. 



Kennicott Bros. Co. received the first 

 of the season 's crop of Klehm 's Novelty 

 tulip during the last week. The cut will 

 increase rapidly. Already the stock is 

 of excellent quality. 



C. W. McKellar had an order Monday 

 for 1,000 sweet peas, -and 500 valley for 

 a Memphis wedding. He has just re- 

 ceived new stocks of ribbons and chif- 

 fons for Easter. 



George Wienhoeber is at a sanitarium 

 at Oconomowoc, again suffering with 

 stomach trouble. 



E. C. Amling is receiving large ship- 

 ments of sweet peas and finds they sell 

 excellently. He has two or three grow- 

 ers at Maywood who make a specialty 

 of sweet peas the first months of the 

 year, and they prove a most profitable 

 crop. 



Phil Schupp, manager of J. A. Bud- 

 long's city store, says that all they want 

 is a day or two of good bright sun to 



bring along the finest crop of roses they 

 have had this season. The color of their 

 Maids is excellent. 



There is much interest in the club's 

 carnation show next week, Thursday, 

 February 14, and it appears that not 

 only will there be a banner attendance, 

 but a fine show. Many novelties will be 

 on view, and the local growers will show 

 their best. The "doings" begin at 7 

 p. m. 



The A. L. Randall Co. has just un- 

 packed a large line of imported glass- 

 ware. 



At the meeting of the Horticultural 

 Society last week Ernst Wienhoeber was 

 elected treasurer, to succeed W. N. Rud<l. 

 As Mr. Rudd insists in also being re- 

 lieved of the secretaryship, that office 

 remains unfilled. The society is in a 

 prosperoiis financial condition. The ex- 

 ecutive committee is authorized to pro- 

 ceed with the arrangements for the an- 

 nual exhibition. 



Clifford Pruner is on the road for E. 

 F. Winterson Co. and reports, along with 

 good orders, that the florists everywhere 

 are having good trade and look forward 

 to a big Easter. 



Wietor Bros, report the receipt of 

 many orders for rooted cuttings of chrys- 

 anthemums from those they suf)plied in 

 previous years. They have a big lot of 

 stock in the sand. 



.Joe Beaver plans to go into business 

 for himself, and is negotiating for the 

 Bruckner place, on Monroe street. 



Harry Rowe reports trade quite active 

 the last fortnight. 



Anton Then leaves this week for a visit 

 at Magnolia Springs, Ala. He will stay 

 a few days at Mobile. 



.James Burdett, press agent for the 

 flower show and for the National Coun- 

 cil of Horticulture, is at Springfield, re- 

 porting the session of the legislature for 

 the .Journal. He will be of material as- 

 sistance to the State Florists' Society in 

 getting its appropriation for greenhouses 

 at the State Experiment Station. 



W. J. Smyth 's father died a few days 

 ago at Albany, N. Y. He was a Mason 

 of over half a century's standing, the 

 oldest there. 



Colds and grip are prevalent. W. E. 

 Lynch, at E. H. Hunt's, has been laid 

 up for a couple of days. So has .Tohn 

 Sinner. Robert Johnstone, of Vaughn &
