H. BAYERSDORFER & CO., 



luauQ Bros. Co. has just taken the ex- 

 clusive American agency for a new cut 

 flower sprinkler. 



Kyle & Foerster found the demand 

 heavy on red carnations and red roses 

 for St. Valentine's day, and the supply 

 was well cleaned up. A. C. Spencer, 

 who handles the Beauties, says quality 

 is improving right along. 



L. R. Bohannon says corsage bunches 

 and fancy baskets of cut flowers sold 

 unusually well for St. Valentine's day. 

 Business has steadily increased with the 

 Bohannon Floral Co. since the removal

 day, ' ' was the comment of A. L.

 entine's day orders were tripled over 

 last year, although his advertising 

 called attention to the beautiful sur- 

 roundings of his store rather than to 

 St. Valentine's day. 



Charles Erne, of Erne & Klingel, is 

 optimistic about the prospect for stock 

 for Easter and says a canvass of those 

 shipping to his firm indicates that the 

 crops will be at their best. 



At the automobile show last week 

 Bichard F. Gloede, of Evanston, kept 

 each of the five Service trucks deco- 

 rated with a big bouquet of carnations, 

 each bearing his car.d marked "Com- 

 pliments of a satisfied customer." Mr. 

 Gloede operater a Service truck. 



John Kruchten is not so sure of the 

 local supply of gardenias turning out so 

 well as was expected for Easter. 



Phil Sehupp, who has been on a south- 

 ern trip, writes that his jaunt has been
