cess may not lead the Field store, with 

 its uneqaaled facilities, to start a 

 fully equipped flower depattment. With 

 the competent manager, f'ield's could 

 do the flower business of the town. 



If early inquiries are any indication, 

 St. Patrick's day will see an unpre- 

 cedented demand for whits carnations. 

 A. L. Vaughan reports Inquiries for 

 quotations on thousand loti as early as 

 February 28. 



The order for the matefial for Bas- 

 sett & Washburn's new range of five 

 houses, each 34x600, has been placed 

 with the King Construction Co., North 

 Tonawanda, N. Y., and thd first car of 

 material has been received. 



The 2-year-old son of William Lohr- 

 man, with the A. L. Randall Co., fell 

 from a third story window February 

 27, alighting in a snowbank and escap- 

 ing absolutely without injury. 



The average florist will say that Feb- 

 ruary was an unusually datk and un- 



favorable month for cut flower grow- 

 ing, but the weather man, who keeps 

 a daily record, has figured out that in 

 February Chicago had fifty-nine per 

 cent of the possible number of hours of 

 sun. The average for February over a 

 series of years is only fifty-one per cent. 

 The temperature, however, averaged 5 

 degrees below normal. 



Because it worked well last year, the 

 Fleischman Floral Co. arranged a big 

 special sale to begin the first Monday 

 in Lent and announced it with a full 

 page 0idvertisement in the leading 

 morniyg daily, costing nearly $600. It 

 set tongues wagging, for the prices 

 looked extremely low by comparison 

 with the wholesale values of flowers 

 a fortnight before. Wholesalers in gen- 

 eral offered to put retailers in position 

 to compete with the Fleischman prices 

 if they were willing to buy in thousand 

 lots, and just to show that it could 

 be done, John Mangel used the same 



paper the following day with a list 

 quoting roses at two-thirds the Fleisch- 

 man prices. 



The first Spanish iris of the season 

 was cut by Poehlmann Bros. Co. March 

 2. Last season this was an excellent 

 seller. 



The counter trade that had been 

 awakened by the few warm days at 

 the end of February was put to sleep 

 again by the wintry start of March, 

 according to A. C. Shaffer, of Winter- 

 son's Seed Store. 



Three days of last week were spent 

 by E. E. Fieser in entertaining his 

 nephew, at whose ranch in Canada he 

 spent two months last summ^. 



On account of alterations, John H. 

 McNeilly is carrying on business under 

 some difficulty at the present time. 

 When completed his store at 1155 East 

 Sixty-third street will be one of the 

 finest in the city.
