CHICAGO NOTES. 

 Flower Trade Notes. 



O. J. Friedman will open his second 

 Michigan avenue store on Sept. 17. 

 It will be conducted under the name 

 of The Congress Floral Co., Inc., and 

 Wm. Graff, for many years with 

 Friedman, will be placed in charge. 



Chas. Moravek of Ogden avenue has 

 moved a short distance and is now at 

 Ogden avenue and Sawyer street, 

 where he has a large store. A con- 

 servatory, 25x40 feet, facing on Saw- 

 yer street, is being built, and when 

 completed Mr, Moravek will have a 

 very desirable place. 



The use of the Coliseum is prac- 

 tically assured for the Flower Show. 

 This is very gratifying to all inter- 

 ested, as it is the most suitable place 

 in which to hold the annual event. A 

 very liberal premium list is being 

 prepared and the date has been fixed 

 for Nov, 8 to 12 inclusive. 



At the meeting called at J. B. 

 Deamud's to organize a bowling club 

 last week a goodly number responded 

 and the club is an assured fact. A 

 meeting is called for the 16th to elect 

 the captains, etc. Regular meetings 

 for bowling will be held each Monday 

 at Flenner's, State and Monroe Sts.

Among the novelties seen in the 

 windows of the large flower stores 

 this week are plants of Celosia 

 Thompsoni Magnifica in a variety of 

 rich colors. They are from two to 

 three feet in height and well branched 

 and are a valuable addition to the 

 plant trade, as they come at a time 

 when blooming plants are very scarce. 

 They are also desirable for cut flow- 

 ers. 



Strail and Hahn captured the deco- 

 ration for the banquet given by the 

 Hamilton Club at the Congress Hotel 

 on the Sth in honor of Theodore 

 Roosevelt. The speakers' table in the 

 gold room, at which were seated 45, 

 was next to the south wall and was 

 trimmed with 200 long-stemmed Beau- 

 ties in tall vases, and strewn upon 

 the table with ferns and Sprengeri. 

 .^mong the green many tiny incandes- 

 cent lights of red, white and blue 

 were used with fine effect. The rest 

 of the 999 guests were at tables seat- 

 ing eight each and thousands of Kil- 

 larney roses with ferns and Sprengeri 

 were strewn upon the tables. The 

 balconies and walls were draped with 

 flags and bunting. 



Vacations.

 of the vacations to carry over into 

 the fall. Wm. Graff is taking a fish- 

 ing trip before he enters upon his 

 duties in the Congress Floral Co.'s

 man's has just returned from a month

 from Minnesota on Labor Day and re- 

 sumed his duties as manager of the 

 Fleischman Co. Miss Harper of the 

 E. H. Hunt Supply Co. is spending a
