NEWS NOTES 



••• 



New Castle, Ind. — That Patrick J. 

 Lynch, owner of the Heller Bros. Co., 

 will resist the condemnation of a right- 

 of-way through his property on South 

 Fifth street by the city to provide for 

 a fuel switch to the waterworks, was 

 indicated in the city council February 

 17. Mr. Lynch and his attorney ap- 

 peared before the body and registered 

 their protest against the condemnation 

 proceedings. 



Muncie, Ind. — E. Webb, of the Mun- 

 cie Floral Co., says there is a bright 

 outlook for Easter business. His firm 

 and the Williams & Clark Floral Co. 

 gave special attention to the decoration 

 of their stores for St. Valentine's day, 

 and the volume of trade on that occa- 

 sion vpas much larger than in former 

 years. Cut flowers sold well and there 

 was a genuine rush in pot plants. 



Northampton, Mass. — The Hamp- 

 shire-Hampden Florists' and Garden- 

 ers* Club will hold a banquet at Boy- 

 den's restaurant, March 4. A program 

 of entertainment will be arranged by 

 Messrs. Barnard and Tichey. The next 

 regular meeting of the club will be held 

 at the greenhouses of H. W. Field and 

 an address will be delivered by Pro- 

 fessor Waugh, of the Massachusetts 

 Agricultural College. 



Allentown, Pa. — Ernest Ashley will 

 moVe April 1 into his new store, which 

 will have the advantage of larger size 

 and finer appearance than his present 

 quarters. Mrs, Ashley has charge and 

 intends to have a most attractive 

 place. The greenhouses are located 

 about two 'miles from the center of the 

 city, on land that is rapidly increasing 

 in value. John F. Horn & Bro. are in 

 a similar position and are now debating 

 the question of moving their range of 

 houses farther back, where there is 

 plenty of room, as well as freedom from 

 the dust of travel.
