WASHINGTON. 



Cttrrent Comment. 



That good, old-fashioned winter vpeath- 

 er you hear our grandfathers talk about 

 has been holding the fort in Washington 

 ever since the Carnation Society left us. 

 It has shortened up the cut considerably, 

 but there is enough stock to go around. 

 Violets and orchids have been scarce. 

 White and lavender lilac is plentiful, es- 

 pecially the white. 



George Cooke reports a busy week. 

 Z. D. Blackistone has been running a 

 sale of cheap baskets of cut flowers and 

 carnations at 50 cents a dozen, and with 

 funeral work, this has kept him busy. 

 George Shaffer reports business good. 

 We found John Robinson with more 

 orders than flowers. Mr. Pfister has some 

 attractive windows. 



J. H. Small & Sons last week had 

 the largest individual order ever booked 

 by the firm in Washington. It was for 

 the Townsend ball. Over 1,000 cattleyas, 

 with hundreds of sprays of white lilac, 

 were used on the tables. The whole 

 house was decorated with azaleas, lilac, 

 Japanese cherries, and flowering almond 

 plants. 



The Gude Bros. Co. has had a busy 

 week, with dinners and luncheons and 

 a heavy demand for funeral work. 



W. W. Kimmell reports a decided im- 

 provement in his business. 



Joseph Harty, who was located in the 

 Ebbitt House, sold all his stock and 

 fixtures at auction last week. 



The Florists' Club had an interest- 

 ing meeting February 4. Officers for 

 the coming year were nominated. The 

 candidates for president are Z. D. Blacki- 

 stone and F. H. Kramer. O. O. 



HOOPESTON, ILL. 



A. Peterson, who has been in business 

 here for about seven years, and has at 

 present about 30,000 square feet of glass, 

 has entered into partnership with another 

 experienced florist, S. E. Lawrence, of 

 Arrowsmith, 111. The new flrm will be 

 known as Peterson & Lawrence, and will 

 engage in business here on a greatly en- 

 larged scale. Mr. Peterson owns ten 

 acres of land just outside of the city 

 limits, and on this tract of ground the 

 firm will immediately erect three houses, 

 each 27x250, to be used exclusively for 

 carnations. Two more houses, for roses, 

 will be built in the near future. The 

 office and store will remain at Mr. 

 Peterson's present address.
