TOLEDO, OHIO. 



State of Trade. 



A good increase in trade was notice- 

 able during the last week, while the pres- 

 ent week began with brisk business and 

 it is expected that the special call for 

 valentine decorations will make the week 

 an excellent one. 



From the first part of last week the 

 demand for carnations began to increase. 

 The Youngstown Floral Co. disposed of 

 7,000 during the week. George Bayer has 

 been devoting his entire time to carna- 

 tions lately. 



There has also been a good run on roses, 

 while the call for violets was greater 

 than ever before last week. The increase 

 in business is encouraging, especially to 

 the new dealers that have opened retail 

 stores in the city. 



Various Notes. 



Toledo florists are again trying to 

 outdo themselves on window displays, 

 and the valentine window decorations 

 at the local retail stores are beautiful 

 as the result. The decorator at the 

 new retail store of George Heinl began 

 work February 10 and many stopped to 

 admire the display during the day. The 

 decorations are appropriate for Valen- 

 tine's day and violets are the principal 

 flowers used. 



The Schoen Floral Co. also has a num- 

 ber of artistic novelties displayed for 

 the valentine trade. Every retailer in 

 the city has secured a stock of novelties 

 for the occasion, and from the way 

 orders are coming in now the business 

 for Valentine's day will greatly exceed 

 that of last year. 



H. F. Breckle, on Sylvania avenue, is 

 having trouble with lettuce and is ex- 

 perimenting with tlie hope of ascertain- 

 ing the cause. He believes the heavy 

 frost of the last few weeks is partly 

 responsible for the failure of the crop. 

 Mr. Breckle is growing a good supply 

 of bedding plants. 



Joseph Heinl, of Jacksonville, 111., 

 arrived February 10, to spend several 

 days with his brother, Harry Heinl. 



William Feniger, of the Youngstown 

 Floral Co., returned to Toledo Febru- 

 ary 8, after spending a pleasant week 

 at his home in Cleveland. 



George Heinl is having a good run on 

 his early supply of spring flowers. 



Vi.siTORS: "William Hagemann, New- 

 York; J. L. Hock, of Augspurger & 

 Sons, Peoria, 111. H. L. S. 



Ashland, O. — A. H. McKittrick, at 

 South Clearcreek, met with a severe loss 

 during the recent cold snap, when one 

 of his heating pipes burst and his let- 

 tuce house froze up. 



Mason City, Ia. — The interior of the 

 Perth Florist Co.'s store was badly 

 damaged by smoke Sunday morning, Feb- 

 ruary 2, during the absence of the pro- 

 prietor, Mr. Glennie, who had been called 

 to Albert Lea by the illness of his wife. 

 He had left an oil stove burning in the 

 store.
