call being for azaleas, poinsettias, Lor- 

 raine begonias and cyclamens. 



The Eush Floral Co. had a good trade 

 in both cut stock and flowering plants. 

 They disposed of a great many cut poin- 

 settias and carnations. 



William Trillow reports cash sales be- 

 low last year, for which he blames the 

 stormy weather, but his gross business 

 was twenty per cent ahead of last year. 

 Mr. Trillow does a large cemetery trade, 

 as he is situated across the street from 

 Woodland cemetery, and if the weather 

 had been fine he would have sold many 

 more wreaths and bunches for graves. 



The Iowa Seed Co, reports a big busi- 

 ness in holly, greens and mistletoe. In 

 Christmas trees they could have sold an- 

 other carload. In the flower department 

 tliey did a rushing business, with all 

 hinds working overtime. Mr. Eiley, the 

 manager, had one of the prettiest win- 

 dow decorations in town. 



The J. S. Wilson Floral Co. did a rush- 

 ing Tbasiness, both in blooming plants and 

 cut' flowers. The principal call was for 

 azaleas, poinsettias, Lorraine begonias, 

 cyclamens and primroses, in the order 

 named. In cut flowers, Richmond and 

 Killarney roses and O. P. Bassett and 

 Lawson carnations had the call, with a 

 heavy demand also for poinsettias. The 

 gross Christmas business was fifty-five 

 per cent ahead of last year. 



Julius Ledig met with a serious mis- 

 fortune about ten days before Christmas, 

 in the loss of his entire greenhouse stock. 

 There was a leak in the main gas pipe 

 in the street, and the gas penetrated into 

 the greenhouses, causing the leaves to 

 drop off all the plants and kiUing all the 

 carnation buds, Romans and Paper 

 Whites. This practically left him with- 

 out a flower for Christmas. Mr. Ledig 

 has had a number of Des Moines florists 

 appraise his damages, which amount to 

 about $1,000. We hope he will be able 

 to settle with the gas company without a 

 suit. Booster. 



Douglas, Wyo. — H. Adam Loucks has 

 consolidated his flower business with the 

 business of the Sheridan Music Co. In 

 future the firm name will be the Sheridan 

 Music & Floral Co. 



Washington, D. C— Albert F. Woods, 

 assistant chief of the Bureau of Plant 

 Industry and Pathologist of the Depart- 

 ment of Agriculture, has tendered his

 dean of the Agricultural College and 

 director of the Experimental Station at 

 Minneapolis, Minn. Mr. Woods will start 

 ia with his new duties February 1.
