Co., wa8 at Milwaukee last week on 

 business connected with the new range 

 of the Helton & Hunkel Co. 



George Wienhoeber says that on the 

 <lay of the advertised special Beauty 

 Bale, April 24, the Fleischman Floral 

 Co. sold 1,300 long Beauties. It is un- 

 derstood the stock was picked up in 

 four wholesale houses. 



Wietor Bros., who never let their 

 *<heds stand empty, last week made a 

 contract for 6,000 tons of Pocahontas 

 'oal, as much as possible of which is 

 ^0 be put in at once. 



Bert R. Lucas, who has charge of the 

 Kldredge greenhouses at Belvidere, last 

 week sent C. W. McKellar three of the 

 strangest carnation blooms one is likely 

 to meet. They were of enormous size 

 and looked mere like peonies than car- 



nations. In the center of each flower 

 another perfect flower was superim- 

 posed, set so far down as to give no 

 hint of the malformation. Mr. Mc- 

 Kellar kept the blooms for several days 

 and few of those who examined them 

 would believe that it was the work 

 of nature and not of a skillful man. 



Last week Peter Reinberg placed a 

 contract for 8,000 tons of Pocahontas 

 as a part of next season's coal supply. 



Fred Lautenschlager, of Kroeschell 

 Bros. Co., reached home April 27, from 

 his trip to New York, whifeh originally 

 was to the National Flower Show. He 

 says that he has sold boilers for 199,- 

 600 square feet of glass on this expedi- 

 tion. 



Mrs. Ida Gelderman, mother of F. H. 

 Gelderman, of L. Baumann & Co., left 



for Altadena, Cal., April 24, to visit the 

 family of L. Baumann. L. Baumann 

 and family have been on the Pacific 

 coast all winter and there is no indi- 

 cation, at this time, that an early re- 

 turn will be made. 



The Eaedlein Basket Co. recently has 

 received some large shipments of bas- 

 kets from the factories in Germany, in- 

 tended for the fall trade. 



Sam Pearce states that he has not yet 

 closed any arrangement for a new busi- 

 ness location and that in any event 

 he will be at the old stand till Octo- 

 ber 1. 



Oscar Leistner reports a heavy de- 

 mand for natural prepared oak wreaths 

 for the Decoration day trade. "Our 

 sales have shown a large increase over 

 last year," he says.
