Various Notes. 

 Fred Sperry, of the old firm of 

 Vaughan & Sperry, now A. L. Vaughan 

 & Co., has again gone into the whole- 

 sale cut flower commission business. 

 He has bought an interest in the Los 



Angeles Flower Market, at Los An- 

 geles, where he has been located for 

 some months. The other stockholder 

 in the corporation also is a former Chi- 

 cago florist, Charles E. Morton. 

 The A. L. Randall Co. received the 



first copies of its new catalogue from 

 the bindery May 19 and will soon have 

 the entire edition ready for mailing. 

 It is much the largest and most com- 

 plete catalogue the house has thus far 

 issued. 



A. Miller, A. T. Pyfer and N. P. 

 Miller, who are the transportation com- 

 mittee of the Cook County Florists^ 

 Association, last week sent a circular 

 letter to all members of the S. A. F. 

 inviting them to join with the associa- 

 tion on its special train via the St. 

 Paul railroad from Chicago to the Min- 

 neapolis convention of the S. A. F. 



John Michelsen, of the E. C. Amling 

 Co., spent a day last week with the E. 

 G. Hill Co., at Richmond, visiting other 

 points on the way. 



O. Johnson says the Batavia Green- 

 house Co., Batavia, 111., only forty 

 miles from Chicago, will cut a few 

 peonies by the end of this week. This 

 would indicate large local crops by Me- 

 morial day. 



C. W, McKellar made a trip of 175 

 miles in his 6-cylinder touring car May 

 18, paying a visit to the Eldredge 

 greenhouses at Belvidere. He says he 

 thinks peonies will be more plentiful 

 than ever before for Memorial day.
