Sweet peas are of good quality. Daf- 

 fodils are abundant and selling fast. 

 Tulips, freesias, narcissi and hyacinths 

 are selling well, also. The fad for the 

 spring flowers is keeping such potted 

 plants as primroses, cyclamens and 

 azaleas in the background. The mar- 

 ket for violets ig quiet at present. The 

 double violets are not so scarce as the 

 singles. Calla lilies are showing per- 

 fect blooms. 



Various Xotes. 



Charles G. Offerle, who has been suf- 

 fering with a fractured ankle, is now 

 able to be at his store during the day.

 16 to 23. The show will be held in 

 the new Mayer building, at Fourteenth

 some may recall that Mr, Frese has 

 been connected with the cut flower busi- 

 ness in' Chicago for thirty-five years. 



Having severed his connection with 

 A. L. Vaughan & Co., Frank Farley is 

 understood to have gone to Indiknapolis 

 to take a retail position. Mr. Vaughan 

 has not yet filled the vacancy. 



The establishments of the John C. 

 Moninger Co. and Adam Schillo Lumber 

 Co. were for a time threatened by a fire 

 that destroyed a grain elevator near 

 them February 7. 



The material used for decorating both 

 the Chicago and the New York automo- 

 bile shows was supplied by L. Baumann 

 & Co. 



The conservatory at the rear of F. O. 

 Franzen's new store, at 5319 North
