at the experiment station at the Uni- 

 versity of Illinois, gave an interesting 

 talk about fertilizers and answered 

 numerous questions. A rising vote of 

 thanks was given Mr. Muncie, who 

 promised to give another lecture at 

 some early date. 



Vaughan's Seed Store showed Canna 

 Fire Bird, bright red, and Carl Lutz. 

 pure yellow. 



At a meeting this week the trustees 

 decided to act in the matter of helping 

 flood sufferers. Their official call is on 

 another page of this issue. 



Various Notes. 



Chicago's representation at the Na- 

 tional Flower Show in New York last 

 week consisted of A. Henderson, Peter 

 Oisem, Fred Lautenschlager, W. N. Rudd 

 and wife, August Poehlmann, Adolph 

 Poehlmann, Albert F. Amling and wife, 

 and H. B. Howard. Mr. Lautenschlager 

 was confined to his hotel for a couple 

 of days by an attack of grip; he will 

 remain in the east another fortnight. 

 Mr. and Mrs. Rudd went to Boston 

 after the show, thence to Norfolk by 

 boat and are in Washington this week. 



Charles A. Samuelson is a member 

 of the grand jury which is investigating 

 the alleged million-dollar voting ma- 

 chine fraud. Carl Cropp and Lewis H. 

 Winterson also were drawn on the 

 same jury, but were excused. 



Tim Matchen says Peter Reinberg 

 resumed New Orleans and Memphis 

 shipments April 14, after two weeks' 

 interruption by flood. 



C. W. McKellar thinks the highest 

 prices for fancy hardy cut ferns are 

 past for this season and that Memorial 

 day will not see the flurry of some other 

 years. 



Otto W. Frese, of Poehlmann Bros. 

 Co., says telegraph service again is 

 normal but that both mail and express 

 service still are a little uncertain. 



A. T. Pyfer, of the Chicago Carna- 

 tion Co., notes an unusual call for red 

 carnations. 



John Michelsen, of the E. C. Amling 

 Co., says a short supply and stiff prices 

 are not at all to his liking; he finds the 

 best total sales come when there is 



{)lenty of stock, even if prices are 

 dwer.. 



The death is reported, April 8, of 

 Mrs. Roden, mother of Mrs. H. Witt- 

 bold and of Miss Clara Roden, who is 

 a member of Mr. Wittbold's store staff. 

 Miss Roden also is ill with rheumatism.
