CHICAGO NOTES. 



In Bankruptcy. 



The following announcement was re- 

 ceived by the Chicago houses last week. 



"Notice is hereby given th.Tt on the 

 11th Jay of January, .A,. D. 1910, Henry 

 Payne of Hinsdale. 111., was duly adjudi- 

 cated a voluntary bankrupt, and that the 

 first meeting of the creditors will be held 

 at the Court House in Wheaton, Du Page 

 County, HI., on Friday, the 21st day of 

 January." 



Mr. Payne is a well-known florist and 

 built his first greenhouses in 1893. He 

 had about 25,000 feet of glass, and his 

 flowers were handled by the Chicago 

 Wholesale houses. Mr. Payne has 

 found it an effort to keep things run- 

 ning for several months and several 

 Chicago florists are among his cred- 

 itors. Thos. S. Huntley was appointed 

 referee. 



Scarcity of Coal. 



Coal, or the lack of it, has been the 

 all absorbing theme with the florists 

 during the past week. The condition 

 reported last week has continued, and 

 many faced the serious question as to 

 what they should do when the last bit 

 of coal was gone. One large range of 

 houses was kept warm with wood for 

 fuel, till help came in the form of a 

 carload of coal. Many of the smaller 

 ranges would undoubtedly have frozen 

 up had not the larger growers tided 

 them over with coal from their re- 

 seve supply. As if in sympathy tor 

 the situation the weather warmed and 

 the third week in January opened 

 warm with a fine mist In the air. 



Personal. 



C. C. Cropp completed 25 years of 

 service in Vaughan's Seed Store, of 

 which he is secretary and manager, on 

 January 12th. As a mark of the high 

 esteem in which he is held he was 

 presented with a handsome mahogany 

 desk by the employees of the store 

 and greenhouses. Mrs. Vaughan made 

 the presentation in a very gracious 

 manner. 



Visitors— Wm. Dittman, of New 

 Castle, Indiana. Mr. Dittman has 60,- 

 000 feet of glass, mostly to American 

 Beauties, and says that from Sept. 1st 

 they bloom steadily. He attributes 

 their non-cropping habits to the tact 

 that he keeps his houses so cool. C. 

 G. Anderson, Kenosha. Wis., who is 

 opening a retail flower store at 220 

 Main St., Kenosha. Elmer D. Smith, 

 Adrian, Mich.: Edw. Amerpohl, Janse- 

 ville. Wis.; Albert J. Brown, Grand 

 Rapids, Mich.; Albert McCullough, 

 Cincinnati, O. 



Frederick Sperry. of Vaughan & 

 Sperry, is ill at his home in Lake 

 street. 



FIRE RECORD. 



Short Hills, N. J.— Fire caused by 

 overheated furnace caused damage of 

 $3,000 to the houses and stock of 

 Thomas Jones, on the evening of Jan. 

 10. Two houses, filled with aspara- 

 gus and smilax, and one with carna- 

 tions, suffered from fire and frost, 25 

 feet of each house, together with 

 sheds, being burned. Mr. Jones will 

 rebuild sheds with concrete as soon 

 as weather permits.
