WAYSIDE NOTES. 



I found Chris Winterich, of Defiance, 

 O., busy building a concrete bench. Its 

 lormation is as follow*: It has %-inch 

 piping for support, with crosspieces 

 placed four feet apart. Upon a wooden 

 irame and bottom a layer of sand is 

 placed, just the height, or rather the 

 depth, of the crosspiece. Upon this is 

 placed a layer of newspaper, then 1-inch 

 mesh poultry wire, three feet wide, upon 

 Which 18 placed the cement. When this 

 IS thoroughly dry, the wooden frame is 

 taken away and you have a bench that 

 wiil last for years. Judging by the 

 amount of concrete being put in, both 

 nere and elsewhere, we are living in a 

 concrete age. Here may be seen one of 

 tne largest stocks of cyclamen grown, 

 ff ^<=t"al count there are 32,000 in seed 



trnl^l/®*.^^ *° transplant and 15,000 

 transplanted, so that there will be a few 

 lor next season. The sale was good this

year. Stock was shipped to extreme 

 points east and west. 



W. Ullrich, of the Ullrich Floral Co., 

 Tiffin, O., expressed himself as more than 

 pleased with holiday business. There 

 was a fine stock, which went well. Flow- 

 ering plants took the lead. By making a 

 big display just previous to the holidays, 

 the firm seemed to get the people in the 

 mood for buying. 



E. E. Sackett, of the Fostoria Floral 

 Co., Fostoria, O., says holiday business 

 cleaned them out completely. They do 

 quite a little shipping and it kept them 

 guessing to satisfy their patrons both at 

 home and abroad. 



Charles Warncke, of Woodmere, Mich., 



had a heavy run on poinsettias and 

 ferns. He made up combination bas- 

 kets to order. 



A. Steineke & Son, of Detroit, Mich., 

 sold out of flowering plants and had a 

 good run on palms and Boston ferns. 



Robert Flowerday, of the Detroit 

 Floral Co., says there is nothing to beat 

 poinsettias and Lorraine for combina- 

 tion work. He had one order of fifty 

 pans, to be made up on a rush for 

 Christmas morning, but was equal to it. 

 All their business is retail and kept 

 everyone on the rush. I noted a pretty 

 lot of small crotons and dracaenas from 

 the Robt. Craig Co. They made up hand- 

 somely and were not expensive. W.
