sheep manure fertilizer; at least Mr. 

 Harris says the orders received by the 

 Pulverized Manure Co. indicate that 

 to be the case. 



Grip gripped Fred Wittbold last week 

 and he was confined to the house sev- 

 eral days. 



John F. Kidwell, president and man- 

 ager of the Chicago Flower Growers' 

 Association, states that stock moved 

 much better during the last week and 

 Saturday proved a big day. 



Last year the city laid out a park 

 south of Foster avenue, opposite the 

 greenhouses of Peter Eeinberg and his 

 brother, George. A plan is under con- 

 sideration to tear down the greenhouses 

 at the south end of the two ranges and 



put up two blocks of flats. George 

 Eeinberg is said to favor the plan, but 

 the alderman is not yet ready to begin 

 what will in the end be the removal 

 of the entire rose plant to the country 

 place where the carnations have been 

 for several years, 



E. A. Kanst, who recently left the 

 south parks after twenty-two years' 

 service to start in the landscaping 

 business for himself, says he has work 

 enough on hand to occupy all his time 

 to July 1. His office is at 5329 Ellis 

 avenue. 



Wm. Harbitz, 3435 West Chicago 

 avenue, plans to sell his retail flower 

 store and go into the cigar business. 



John Michelsen, of the E. C. Am- 



bing Co., says he looks for the biggest 

 Easter on record — people will be so 

 glad to see the spring that they will 

 buy more flowers than usual. 



Strafford, N. H. — Frank R. Jones, who 

 was employed in New Durham during 

 the winter, has returned to the Foss 

 farm, near this town, and will reopen 

 the Foss greenhouses, which he has 

 leased for a year. 



Washington, Pa. — James Blankensop, 

 who until recently was manager of C. A. 

 Dunn's flower store, on South Main 

 street, is now proprietor of the business. 

 He expects to increase his facilities, so 

 as to be able to take care of a larger 

 trade.
