The Weekly Florists' Review. 



OCTOBER 6, 1S98. 



CHICAGO (Continued), 

 dark weather continues a shortage 

 may develop. A few good violets are 

 making their appearance. 



Various Notes. 



The meeting of the Florists' Club 

 Friday evening of this week promises 

 to be unusually interesting. Mr. E. 

 Buettner will tell the members about 

 his trip abroad and after adjourn- 

 ment the bowlers will organize a reg- 

 ular bowling club. 



Henry Klehm, of Arlington Heights, 

 recently took unto himself a wife. 

 Congratulations! 



A. L. Randall is putting in a full 

 stock of florists' supplies and is pre- 

 paring to push the supply business 

 with vigor. 



Referring to the use of terms de- 

 scriptive of market conditions Mr. 

 E. E. Pieser. of Kennicott Bros. Co., 

 says that "first class" stock means 

 the best that is to be had in the 

 market at the time and is not a fi.xed 

 degree of excellence. The buyers 

 make the demand and the first buyer 

 gets the first selection. There is then 

 one less buyer and therefore a frac- 

 tion less demand, and the "first class" 

 stock is a fraction lower in grade. In 

 consequence the second buyer may 

 have to be given a trifle lower rate 

 to induce him to buy. Still both have 

 bought "first class" stock, namely, the 

 best to be had in the market at the 

 time each made his purchase. 



.John C. Schubert and A. Lange 

 went to Omaha last week with the 

 Merchants' Club to attend the exposi- 

 tion on Chicago day. 



Burt Eddy, the well known and pop- 

 ular traveling representative of Vaug- 

 ..an's ^eed Store, aied at his home in 

 Chicago the evening of September 27, 

 aged 54 years. Mr. Eddy was a big 

 man. both physically and mentally, 

 and had a genial personality that 

 made him a host of friends. He was 

 known to the trade from one end of 

 the country to the other and was 

 universally esteemed. 



Frank Beu, formerly with Bassett 

 o: Washburn, has bought the green- 

 house business of Keller & Hitzler at 

 Irving Park. He will grow both cut 

 flowers and plants for the Chicago 

 market. He may build additional 

 houses next summer. 



Mr. Alex Gait Robinson, of the Louis- 

 ville Spirit Cured Tobacco Co., was a 

 visitor last Friday. 



Walter Kreitling visited Omaha 

 again on Chicago Day, Ociouer 1. He
