Mention The Review when yon write. 



ally is at this season, for he says they 

 appear to appreciate that growers are 

 burning $4 worth of coal for every $1 

 worth of Beauties they have been cutting 

 lately. 



C. W. McKellar has had exceptionally 

 bad luck in the matter of having orchid 

 shipments frozen. Two more boxes were 

 received frozen last Friday, making four, 

 of an aggregate value of nearly $300, 

 lost within a week. He turned the goods 

 back to the express company and was 

 both pleased and surprised that settle- 

 ment was made within three days. 



The A. L. Bandall Co. reports that 

 again this week they ran out of white 

 lilac. The demand is the heaviest they 

 ever have known. 



There was a large display of flowers 

 at the funeral of Capt. Gammar, of the 

 New York Central lines, last week. 

 Nearly everyone had a share of the work, 

 but Fleischman, in the Railway Exchange 

 building, was especially favored. 



Bassett & Wa.shburn expect to plant 

 next season about 25,000 plants of their 

 new red carnation. No. 20. They now 

 have 15,000 cuttings of it in the sand. 



E. Fransen, who looks after the sell- 



ing end for Scheiden & Schoos, reports 

 an excellent call for white carnations, 

 but pink going a little slow in the la.st 

 week. 



Henry Klehm, of Klehm 's Nurseries, 

 Arlington Heights, 111., has formed a 

 partnership with Mrs. Frank Hurst, at 

 Moline, and will open a flower and candy 

 store there. 



Adam Zender says he has a claim of 

 about $350 for young stock supplied to 

 M. Winandy the season before the fail- 

 ure. He neglected to prove up his claim 

 in the bankruptcy court and was blaming 

 himself for it until he saw in last week 's 

 Review what the estate will realize. 



H. F. Halle reports a rush of funeial 

 orders. 



Charles P'isk is not making any com- 

 plaint of a lack of business, 



Andrew Ivorick, one of E. H. Hunt's 

 wire workers, died Sunday. In extend- 

 ing sympathy to the family the firm also 

 should be included. 



Sinner Bros, have joined with Vaughan 

 & Sperry in the construction of adjoin- 

 ing private oflic«s at the Flower Market. 

 Frederick Sperry says he is more than 

 pieaserl with the market for violets the 



last few weeks. In addition to large 

 quantities of Hudson river stock they 

 now are handling many singles. 



George Darby, a well-known character 

 in the market, made his reappearance 

 Monday after spending six weeks in the 

 County hospital. He was run over by a 

 street car at the comer of Wabash 

 and Randolph streets Christmas eve. 



Weiland & Risch have gained addi- 

 tional space for their packing room, and 

 a new entrance, through the changes in 

 the basement of the Atlas block. 



P. J. Hauswirth had the banquet which 

 marked the merger of the Merchants' 

 Club and the Commercial Club at the 

 Auditorium last Saturday night. A large 

 semi-circular table and several small 

 round tables were decorated with Rob- 

 ert Craig carnations, which made a tell- 

 ing effect. 



John Mangel reports business good 

 and is turning out some handsome work. 

 He is handling first-class stock imd get- 

 ting good prices for it. 



The retail stores are full of well flow- 

 ered azaleas. 



The latter part of last week Martin 

 Reukauf, of Bayersdorfer & Co., Phila-
