Various Notes. 



The Miami Floral Co. is cutting some 

 heavy crops of good roses in all va- 

 rieties, but finds the market dull. 

 Rather than give the ash barrel the 

 benefit of the surplus, the company is 

 sending large quantities to the hos- 

 pitals and other places where they will 

 do some good, thus giving many who 

 have few flowers a chance to enjoy 

 them. 



Many of our local expressmen are 

 seen wearing white duck caps bearing 

 the inscription, "Matthews, the 

 Florist. »' 



Word has been received from Mr. 

 and Mrs. George Bartholomew, who left 

 for England July 17, that they arrived 

 in Liverpool all O. K., their boat being 

 two days late in landing, due to rough 

 and icy seas. They intend to travel 

 extensively through England, their trip 

 covering most places of interest, and at 

 the time they wrote they were taking 

 in the sights of London and having a 

 jolly good time. 



M. Anderson has been on the sick 

 list for the last week. Aside from his 

 flower establishment, he has bought a 

 restaurant in town. 



William Kiefaber, treasurer of the 

 Miami Floral Co., left August 10, ac- 

 companied by his wife and two sons, 

 for a two weeks' trip to Atlantic City 

 and other eastern points. 



Word comes from H. C. Hood that he 

 is now manager of P. Haussmann's 

 nursery at Los Angeles, Cal. 



Warren G. Matthews and Harry Altic 

 left August .3 for Cincinnati to join 

 the Cincinnati and Chicago delegations 

 to the convention. 



Herbert Bartholomew and Roy 

 Ewings, both"^ ±he_Mifinii Floral Co., 

 have equipped themselves with a steel 

 duck boat, a small tent and cooking 

 utensils and intend to "paddle their 

 own canoe" about September 1, when 

 they will start on a trip down the 

 Miami river to the Ohio river and 

 from there to the Mississippi and down 

 that stream until they get tired. They 

 will then return to Dayton by rail and 

 ship their outfit. 



Mrs. B. Hendrichs has been out camp- 

 ing with friends at Shiloh, 0., for the 

 last two weeks. Arno Hendrichs left 

 last week on a two weeks' vacation, in 

 which he will visit Niagara Falls, 

 White Haven and points of interest in 

 Canada. R. A. B. 



Sioux City, la. — Mrs. Mary K. Bishop 

 is erecting another greenhouse.
