. The American florist : a weekly journal for the trade. Floriculture; Florists. 1686 The American Florist. June /J, Greenfield, Mass. B. B. BBALS BOYS SPRINGFIELD GRKEN- HODSBPKOPBBTY ANDWlLLMOVBJDLYl. B. B. Beals, of the Sunny Dell green- houses, is to go to SpringBeld. He is closing out his stock at the local green- houses, and has bought the Eastern Avenue greenhouses in Springfield and takes possession July 1. Mr. Beals' departure will be regretted by many of his cuitomers, as he has had an unusual gift in handling flowers, particularly in the case of carnations. He has done a large business shipping orders into \'er- mont and New Hampshire and east and west on the Fitchburg road, as well as supplying a large Greenfield trade. Mr. Beals came to Greenfield when sixteen years old, says a local contemporary, and with the'exception of three years' absence has made his home here since. When he first came he was in the express office and bookstore of Lewis Merriam. Then he became a clerk in the postoffice, where he remained two and one-half years, and afterward went to the Spring- field postoffice. Later he secured a posi- tion as a postal route agent, running from Springfield to Newport, Vt. After returning to Greenfield he was success- ively in the laundry and the news busi- ness, and for the last twenty years has been a florist. He first ran two green- houses on High street, and lor a time also a house on the lot where Dr. Rob- bins' house now is. Eleven years ago the Sunny Dell greenhouses were built by F. O. Wells, and Mr. Beals has rented the place since that time. His new loca- tion gives him eight connecting green- houses seventy feet long. Mr. Wells has received several applications from people who want to run the greenhouses. Holland, Mich. —Paul Stehetee is handling cut flowers as agent for George * Hancock & Son, of Grand Haven.
