preme at C. A. Kuehn 's. The Ivory, My 

 Maryland, Killarney and White Killarney 

 are of the best quality. He should have 

 a full crop for Easter. 



Dominic Bova, the Union Market 

 florist, was one of the heaviest violet 

 buyers last week. One purchase amounted 

 to 77,000, from the W. C. Smith Whole- 

 sale Floral Co. 



John L. Koenig, of the Koenig Floral 

 Co., has moved into his new residence. A 

 house warming was held last week, to 

 which the family and many friends were 

 invited. 



Charles W. Fullgraf has left the em- 

 ploy of the forestry department of the 

 city, and has taken up practical forestry 

 and landscape gardening at 7077 Pernod 

 avenue, *with a downtown office in the 

 Frisco building. Mr. Fullgraf is a 

 graduate of the Missouri Botanical Gar- 

 den, and one of the best posted men in 

 this line in the city. 



Charles Dauerenheim, Jr., a carnation 

 grower in Kimmswick, Mo., who con- 

 signs to this market, reports that he is 

 going into the chicken business this 

 summer. 



The Kirkwood growers last week filled 

 up the wholesale market completely with 

 California violets, sweet peas and car- 

 nations, all of the best quality. Plenty 

 of them went to waste even at the cheap 

 prices. The weather of a few days last 

 week was more like midsummer, and this 

 would soon put a stop to violets. 



Jule Koenig, Charles Stocke, A. Y. 

 Ellison and W. E. Jordan, of the city 

 forestry department, are having plenty 

 of work these spring-like days, and are 

 out daily with a big force of men, direct- 

 ing the work among the city trees. 



A special bowling match has been ar- 

 ranged for Sunday afternoon, March 13, 

 between Eddie Gerlach and George 

 Schriefer, of C. A. Kuehn 's force, and 

 Oscar Huettemann and J. J. Beneke, to 

 take place at the new alleys at Grand 

 and Arsenal. The trade is invited to 

 attend. 



The call made by several of the west 

 end florists for a meeting at the Wash- 

 ington hotel, Wednesday, March 2, to 

 organize a retail florists' protective asso- 

 ciation, was responded to by some twenty 

 invited retailers. The organization was 

 perfected by electing C. C. Sanders 

 president, Charles Young secretary and 

 Fred H. Weber treasurer. J. J. B.

Corrugdtfd 



DT'S the boiler with tlie 

 hump, but it's the hump 

 that makes the small 

 coal bills. If it wasn't 

 for the hump, it wouldn't have 

 its long tire travel, and the 

 longer the fire travel the more 

 economical the boiler. The 

 corrugation on the tire box in- 

 creases the fire surface 50 per 

 I'ent. and the greater the tire 

 surface, the more heat ab- 

 sorbed. Send for catalogue.
