CRplWKRS TO GO INTO BUSINESS —FLORISTS ; sdciBTJT MBMBBES TO ATTEND CONVEN- TION IN'l BODY.—HAPS AND MISHAPS. S. J. Thompson met with a severe accident June 11, his horse slipping and falling on him. Mr. Thompson's left knee cap was thrown out ot place besides other injuries. Being in delicate health his friends feel considerable anxiety aa to the result. Albert Reichpfau, formerly foreman lor F. Walker & Co. at their greenhouses in Oakdale, has been backed up by a capitalist and will erect several green- houses at Richmond, Ky., where a general florist stock will be grown. He is highly pleased with the location and has had a good demand for plants before a foot of glass was put up. Mrs. C. W. Reimers has booked a handsome order for a floral decoration for the Masonic Triennial Conclave in August. F. Walker & Co. also have several nice orders for decorating and cut flowers and all the florists expect a good demand for flowers. The members of the Kentucky Society of Floriits are planning to attend the S. A. F. convention at Bufi'alo in a body. The society has fifteen members at present. Joseph Coenen, of Coenen & Co. is the only one who has declined to go thus far. Chas. Ravner, of Anchorage, Ky., has given up the idea of building a large range of glass in addition to his already extensive plant this season owing to the exorbitant price of glass. C. H. Kunzman has been ill for several weeks. He is considered one of the best carnation growers in this locality and is sending in fine carnations, for which he gets the top price. Simon Pontrich formerly foreman for E. G. Reimers is erecting several green- honses in Parkland, a suburb of Louis- Ville. He is a good all-around florist and no doubt will do well. John G. Bettman and Anders Rasmus- sen made very creditable displays of plants and cut flowers in booths at the New Albany
