THAT'S ONE REASON why the Bayersdorfer & Co. Exhibit at Rochester caused so much interest 

 and induced so many heavy orders from the sagacious florists who go to conventions. 



NEXT TO QUALITY COMES PRICE. Buying direct from first hands, under personal super, 

 viiion, gives us the advantage over all others on imported goods and our facilities for manufacturing in quan- 

 tity make us impregnable when it comes to home- made goods. 



WE OPEN THE SEASON with the finest stock of Florists' Supplies ever offered. The goods are 

 all fresh and up to date and the novelties have selling merit. 



Send to us for Fall List. You can't beat it for variety and price.

CHICAGO NOTES. 

 Fall Openings. 

 This is opening week at some of the 

 large Slate street stores and the deco- 

 rations are a real treat to the lover of 

 harmony and color. Marshall Field's 

 is less elaborate than usual, being 

 simple masses of foliage in light, deli- 

 cate colorings. A more pretentious 

 decoration is shown at Steven's where 

 the most gorgeous colors are blended 

 in a perfectly harmonious effect. The 

 large white columns of the store had 

 a narrow band encircling them at the 

 bottom and again ten feet above and 

 to these were attached gilded strips of 

 wood one inch square and placed two 

 inches apart. Over these trailed the 

 vines in soft dainty colors relieved by 

 clusters of berries from the woodbine. 

 A featuie of the scheme of color was 

 the abundant use of tritoma which was 

 the highest note in each instance, the 

 rich autumn colors leading ui) to it. 

 Around the balcony where the musici- 

 ans were stationed and near the en- 

 trance were vases of tritoma rising 

 from masses of fall plants in birch 

 wood boxes and from which hung 

 vines. A large number of natural 

 roses was used each day.

Park Ridge this week and will ship 

 a car load to the west. 



The Wienhoeber Co. have everything 

 in readiness for the fall season. With 

 the additional floor space which in- 

 cludes a work room 15 x IS ft. and a 

 show room 2.5 x 35 ft. for their pottery 

 of which they make a specialty, they 

 will be in better position than ever to 

 handle their trade. 



Mrs. Frank Beu is selling the 

 chrysanthemums of Mathew Evert in 

 the Flower Growers' Market. Mr. 

 Evert will handle them himself as 

 soon as the market is completed. The 

 remodeling of this building has been 

 going on all summer and causes con- 

 siderable inconvenience to the Flower 

 Growers' Ass'n, but when completed 

 the building will be first-class in every 

 particular. 



The opening of a wholesale house 

 in the Atlas Block by the Chicago 

 Carnation Co. makes the ninth firm in 

 this line on the second floor. In this 

 stronghold of the Chicago florists both 

 the basement and the second floor are, 

 with a single exception, in each case 

 occupied by wholesale florists. Across 

 the street is the Fairbanks building, 

 the home of the Flower Grower's 

 Market and within a stone's throw are 

 to be found all the wiiolesale florists 

 of Chicago, a great convenience to 

 the stranger, as well as to the regular 

 purchaser.
