Valentine's day brought no rush of 

 trade to Englewood retailers, but Mr. 

 Simmons is authority for the state- 

 ment that J. L. Easke used 14,000 

 violets February 14. 



Tim Matchen, sales manager for 

 Peter Keinberg, comments that the per- 

 centage of split carnations has de- 

 creased notably with the increase in 

 production. 



February 14 was moving day for 

 Peter Olsem, who took up his residence 

 this week in the flat building on the 

 premises of the Star Floriil Co., at 

 Wilmette. Mr. Pyfer plans to move 

 into the same building in the spring. 



Excellent success with Formosa lilies, 

 from Christmas to St. Valentine's day, 

 is reported by George Keinberg. The 

 stock has been on extremely long stems, 

 carrying from three to ten flowers each. 

 He used Barnard's bulbs. 



Returning from a month's trip 

 through the western section that 

 suffered so severely in last summer's 

 heat and drought, C. E. Pruner says he 

 found conditions there fully as good as 

 usual. "While some florists are not doing 

 the usual business, others are doing 

 more than ever before at this season. 



A strained back was acquired by T. 

 E. Waters on his southern trip last 

 week. He was barely able to be about. 



Good callas are excellent property 

 this season, according to Weiland & 

 Risch. 



With his 19-year-old daughter suffer- 

 ing with neuritis at Sacred Heart sani- 

 tarium, John Zech is a frequent visitor 

 to Milwaukee. He reports the young 

 lady as somewhat improved February 

 15.

Peter Schumer, whp was placed in 

 charge of the new vegetable growers' 

 cooperative commission house on South 

 Water street, opened a few months ago, 

 has found the work too strenuous and 

 has resigned. Mr. Schumer is a lettuce 

 and carnation grower. 



A ring around February 17 on the 

 calendar of A. L. Vaughan & Co. was a 

 reminder that a tip had been received 

 that the day would see a special de- 

 mand for red carnations. 



Carnation Philadelphia is one of the 

 novelties Wietor Bros, will try out this 

 season. 



If St. Valentine's day had not been 

 good with the out-of-town buyers, Will- 

 iam Homburg, of .T. A. Budlong's, says 

 they would not have come back so 

 strongly as nearly everyone did Mon- 

 day. 



The transportation committee of the 

 Chicago Florists' Club has arranged for 

 those who will attend the Danville con- 

 vention to leave on the Chicago & East- 

 ern Illinois, Dearborn station. Dearborn 

 and Polk streets, at 11:10 a. m., March 

 10. The fare one way is .$2.46. 



Indianapolis, Ind. — A. Pittet had a 

 splendid cut of sweet peas for St. Val- 

 entine's day.

February 9 we had the change that 

 we have been wishing for all winter and 

 since then the weather has been cold 

 enough to keep the fruit buds back, at 

 least. They were just at the danger 

 point and the earlier spring flowers, 

 such as snowdrops and chionodoxas, 

 were in full bloom. In fact, a few 

 daffodils were seen in the open and 

 there would have been hundreds in an- 

 other week. Elms and maples were in
