NEW CARNATION DEFIANCE 



Mr. w. N. Rudd, Morgan Park, 111. 



Dear Sir:--I wish to congratulate you on your splendid red car- 

 nation. Defiance. I have for three seasons been using part of the 

 cut at my two retail stores and it has made for me customers and 

 money. Its keeping qualities are wonderful, its color pleasing and 

 its form and fragrance are in keeping with its other good merits; 

 its only drawback being the inability to secure enough blooms, as 

 the local retailers all seem to want this particular variety. 



Yours truly, GEORGE ASMUS . 



$18.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000. Usual diacounts on larg^er orders.

The day after Christmas I'ouiul busy 

 Mrs. E. Slider rushing out a big weddiiig 

 order. She said she had not let up for 

 a week, all hands -norking all day and 

 into the night. Everything that was sal- 

 able went at good prices. 



Chas. A. Schramm says he has no kick 

 coming. He was cleaned out of all flow- 

 ering plants and wished he had more, as 

 cut flowers hung fire at the high prices 

 asked. 



John Barrow was taking a siesta 

 after a thirty-six-hour almost continu- 

 ous pegging away. There was noth- 

 ing left but a few fine poinsettias and 

 these will be used up during the next few 

 days in some good orders for decorations. 



O. B. Wisner says he did the proper 

 thing when he took the store he occupies 

 in the Ohio building. Holiday business 

 was all he could\hvish. 



Geo. A. Heiny hardly knew where he 

 stood until he had got straightened out 

 after the rush. He had plenty of stock 

 and good orders. 



The Henry Phillips Seed Co. is getting 

 in its usual supply of seed. Fall busi- 

 ness was good and the firm sees no rea- 

 son wiiy spring demand will not come up 

 to the most sanguine expectations. 



Chas. Phillips, of the Perennial Gar- 

 dens Co., says the firm lias about five 

 acres planted with excellent stock and 

 looks for big business, as the demand 

 for herbaceous and perennial plants is 

 steadily increasing. W. 



SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. 



The Springfield Florists ' Club was well 

 represented at the meeting of the Com- 

 mercial Club held on the evening of De- 

 cember 19, to which the florists had 

 been specially invited. J. H. McFarland, 

 of Harrisburg, Pa., was the principal 

 speaJter. The movement in behalf of 

 civic improvement inaugurated at the 

 November banquet of the Florists' Club 

 has been taken up and is being ener- 

 getically agitated by the Commercial 

 Club, and will undoubtedly be forcibly 

 presented to our new city council, which 

 comes into power with the beginning of 

 the new year. G. D. 



North Tonawaxda, N. Y. — John 

 Schweichler, formerly with D. Newlands 

 & Co., of Buffalo, has purchased some 

 greenhouses here. 



Handley, Tex.— :Mellette & Mellette

 Poultry & Flower Farm.
