TRI-QTIES. 



Current Comment* 



Jack Frost visited the Tri-Cities ^st 

 week. The temperature went to 14 ide- 

 grees below zero on Wednesday morn- 

 ing and hovered around 5 and 6 degrees 

 below all day on Thursday. 



George Waekel has been visiting his 

 folks on a farm near here, and called 

 on several of the florists before return- 

 ing to his duties. • 



L. Stapp met with an auto accident 

 last week, but, luckily, the damage was 

 confined to the machine. He was speed- 

 ing his auto toward Moline.* When about 

 halfway bn his journey, the tires of the 

 machine skidded on the slippery car 

 track, and in a moment a telephone pole 

 .interfered and ^11 was over. Mr. Stapp 

 was compelled to return to Rock Island 's. 

 repair shops and take the car back home. 



At the meeting of the Florists' Club 

 tonight, January 14, the subject for dis- 

 cussion will be "FCTtilizers and T'heir 

 Uses." H. M. 



ERIE»PA. 



The Market 



Trade has kept up well since the holi- 

 days. The weather is cold, about 14 de- 

 grees above zero. Daffodils and tulips 

 have made their appearance and are the 

 first indication of approaching spring. 



Various Notes. 



The florists are having pretty window 

 displays this week. The Baur Floral 

 Co. has dwarf orange trees in fruit. Of- 

 ferle & Schaal have Beauty roses, and J. 

 V. Laver has Harrisii lilies on display. 



G. H. Baur has won some honors at 

 the University of Pennsylvania. Besides 

 distinguishing himself in other ways, he 

 was chosen on the debating team which 

 is to compete with all the large colleges. 



Elmer Chester has re-entered profes- 

 sional life. He is traveling with a the- 

 atrical company in vaudeville. B. P. 



Palestine, III. — E. T. Oldham has 

 been dangerously ill for the last two 

 weeks with rheumatism, grippe and ton- 

 silitis. His mother came and took care 

 of him and the greenhouses. He had a 

 remarkably prosperous business last year, 

 with a better Christmas trade than in 

 any previous year. He reports that there 

 will probably be a greenhouse built next 

 summer at the neighboring town of Rob- 

 inson.
