The florists' picnic, which was to be held July 26, was postponed to August 2 because the baseball park was re- served for that date. Business is good with the W. F. Kast- ing Co. at the new location. The com- pany is seeking a permanent location, as the temporary quarters are not large enough. It is with regret that we record the death of August Brucker, which oc- curred July 24. Mr. Brucker was one of the victims of the recent hot wave.
