■were fortunate enough to have good holly 

 this year made a very good thing out 

 of it. 



It has been many years since we have 

 had such warm weather during the holi- 

 days. It has' been close to 50 degrees 

 here every day, and scarcely low enough 

 at night to freeze. While this is very 

 bad on the flowers in the greenhouses, 

 it was ideal weather in which to deliver 

 goods. As a consequence the plant busi- 

 ness has never been better. It was so 

 easy to deliver them that the stores made 

 extra effort to sell plants. 



.Variotis Notes. 



The Carnation Society meeting at 

 "Washington, D. C, January 28 to 30, is 

 now fast approaching and will soon be 

 upon us. As we have several carnation 

 enthusiasts in this city, Cincinnati ought 

 to send a pretty good delegation. E. G. 

 Gillett is laying his plans to go and of 

 course Bichard Witterstaetter will be on 

 hand. A rate of one fare and a third 

 has been made on the certificate plan. 

 From all indications, this meeting will 

 be the best ever this year. 



A new park superintendent will likely 

 be appointed this week. A new possibil- 

 ity for the position is Ben George. He 

 was called before the new board of pub- 

 lic service yesterday. Carl Schweitzer 

 has also put in an application. J. W. 

 Rodgers, the present superintendent, is 

 not saying much, but has some hopes of 

 holding the place. There are many, 

 though, who would not be surprised to 

 Bee B. P. Critchell, who held the posi- 

 tion prior to Mr. Bodgers, get the ap- 



■ pointment. 



The Walnut Hills Floral Bazaar had 



■ three of the best decorations of the sea- 

 ' son during the last week. They were 



all elaborate affairs and the work was 

 done in the high class manner for which 

 this firm is noted. 



On Christmas day Nick Weber held a 

 reunion of his large family at his home. 

 Some twenty members were present and 

 all enjoyed the occasion greatly. 



C. J. Ohmer. 



Webb City, Mo. — S. S. Brenneman 

 says that Christmas trade was fine and 

 everything was sold. The weather also 

 was fine. 



Syracuse, N. Y.— P. B. Quinlan & 

 Co. are operating two stores this sea- 

 son, one at 417 South Salina street and 

 one at 133 East Washington street. The 

 Christmas stock was especially strong on 

 blooming plants and many baskets and 

 hamper arrangements were sold. The 

 Christmas trade was as good as ever.
