 week's illness, 



Word comes from Los Angeles that 

 Leonard Kill, who is operating in real 

 estate there, has put through a deal 

 involving over $160,000. 



The Foley Mfg. Co. reports having 

 shipped the material for the second 

 range to be put up this season by Poehl- 

 mann Bros. Co., the increase in glass 

 for the year being twenty-six houses 27x 

 250.

 again in good request.

 ing nearly two million ferns in cold 

 storage.

 ruary 27 Charles Klehm said that he 

 looks for a fine season on peonies, now 

 starting growth in the southern fields.

 ing way, one by one.
