SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH. 



A committee of florists headed by 

 Thomas Hobday, former superintendent 

 of waterworks, appeared before the 

 city commission December 18 to protest 

 against the holiday sale of Christmas 

 greens and cut flowers by the street 

 corner venders, contending that such 

 competition is unfair to the merchants 

 who pay licenses to the city the year 

 around. As a result the commission 

 issued an order that sales outside the 

 business premises of the seller must 

 cease December 19. That day F. H. 

 Showell applied to the district court 

 for an injunction against the city ofla- 

 cials to prevent them from interfering 

 with his business. He alleged that he 

 had paid the city a merchant's license 

 and is renting space for his business. 

 He claimed that, under the city ordi- 

 nances, he is entitled to three feet of 

 sidewalk space to carry on his business, 

 but that the city commission has issued 

 an order to the chief of police to stop 

 him and others from conducting busi- 

 ness on the sidewalks and that the 

 police were threatening to close up his 

 business. Judge C. W. Morse signed 

 an order to show cause, which re- 

 strained the chief of police and the 

 commission from stopping Showell 's 

 business until after the case is heard 

 on its merits. The order was made re- 

 turnable January 2, which permitted 

 the Christmas sales to go on within the 

 limit. 



Menominee, Mich.— Hans Larsen, who 

 heretofore has confined his attention 

 principally to the growing of vegetables, 

 has enlarged his greenhouses and will 

 use the added space for flowers. The 

 business will be conducted by himself 

 and his son, Louis Larsen. 



White Plains, N. Y.— John Gussar, 

 for a long time foreman at J. H. Lau- 

 rens' greenhouses, has taken charge of 

 the White Plains flower store of Ar- 

 thur Dummett, Inc., of Mount Vernon, 

 N. Y., and is meeting with good suc- 

 cess, especially with the stock from 

 the greenhouses of his neighbors, Scott 

 Bros., J. H. Laurens and James Smith, 

 as well as the Dutch bulb stock from 

 Mr. Dummett 's greenhouses at 91 Cen- 

 tral avenue.
