cerned, but that it is hard to tell how 

 long these prices will continue, as the 

 production of hand-blown glass is not 

 great, a large part of the window glass 

 now manufactured being machine blown. 

 Florists have not yet been educated to 

 believe that machine glass is as good for 

 greenhouse use as the article made by 

 the older method. 



Various Notes. 



August Poehlmann says that for 

 Christmas they cut 2,762 Beauties that 

 came in the dollar grade. The company 

 now has in storage a million valley pips. 

 Dividing these up, it means a cut of 

 nearly 3,000 valley each day the year 

 around. 



At C. A. Samuelson's perfect satisfac- 



tion is reported with the December busi- 

 ness. November and the first part of 

 December were light, but the finish was 

 fine and the first week in January also 

 was good. 



At E. H. Hunt's large consignments 

 of Easter supplies are being received and 

 the prospect is for an excellent spring 

 business. W. E. Lyneb says the cut 

 flower department is as busy as could 

 be expected. 



Joseph Foerster is no longer in charge 

 of the selling end of George Reinberg's 

 business and his place has not been 

 filled. Miss Mamie Reinberg has taken 

 charge of the books, with the assist- 

 ance of Fred Klingel, who has been keep- 

 ing books for John J. Kruchten. 



Percy Jones says that he makes no 



pretensions to being a weather prophet, 

 but that he sees signs of a January thaw 

 in the market. 



C. L. Washburn is spending the week 

 at West Baden, Ind. 



E. Fransen, who has charge of the sell- 

 ing end for Scheiden & Schqos, started 

 a two weeks' term of jury service Janu- 

 ary 6. During his absence Miss Jose- 

 phine Then, who sells her father's crop 

 at the Flower Growers' market, will sell 

 Mr. Fransen 's stock. 



Wietor Bros, say that the Kate Moul- 

 ton rose is fully justifying their judg- 

 ment in planting a whole house of it this 

 season. They are cutting a good crop of 

 excellent quality and have no diflSculty 

 in placing it with regular customers at 

 from 10 cents down. As many as 700 a
