CHICAGO NOTES. 



The Flower Show. 

 An office lor the committee in 

 charge of the Chicago Flower Show, 

 Nov. 7-12, with Geo. Asmus president, 

 was opened Monday at 45 Wabash 

 avenue in the cut-flower department 

 of the Winterson Seed Store. Harry 

 Yager, who assisted last year, will be 

 on duty again. Indications are that 

 the flower show this year will outdo 

 any hitherto held, and letters asliing 

 for exhibition space are coming in 

 with every mail. Plans for the laying 

 out of the floor have been submitted 

 by leading landscape gardeners and 

 the designers are at worl< on the post- 

 ers. It is to be regretted that the 

 show will not cover one Sunday, but 

 the building must be vacated for the 

 Land Show which follows it. The 

 largest amount of money ever offered 

 for premiums here is to be won by 

 exhibitors and the premium list will 

 he sent upon application to Flower

 Trade Jottings. 



Most of the growers now have thel'- 

 bulbs planted and, as usual, hav,' 

 lilanted more than the previous year. 



The E. H. Hunt Co. has just received 

 a large shipment of fancy baskets im- 

 ported dried from Holland and Ger- 

 many. 



The Alpha is now as attractive as 

 the decorators can make it. With its 

 large frontage on two streets it pre- 

 sents a very fine appearance. 



Frank Oechslin has received a car 

 load of azaleas which have stood the 

 journey in good shape and are well 

 supplied with buds. Another car load 

 is on the way. 



Leonard Lawson of Rockford. 111., 

 sold out his greenhouse business two 

 years ago and has started in aga'n 

 this fall with one large new house, to 

 which he will add more in the spring. 



The Chicago Carnation Co. are now 

 nicely established in their new quar- 

 ters, at 203 Atlas Block. Miss Nettie 

 Parker, who has been in charge of the 

 oilice nearly five years at Joliet, came 

 with the firm to take charge here. 



H. M. Burt is in Chicago selecting 

 fixtures for a new store which he will 

 open Oct. 22nd on Main street. Jack- 

 sen, Mich. Mr. Burt was formerly of 

 Burt & Coggan, Battle Creek. Mich., 

 and sold out his interest to S. W. Cog- 

 gan. 



Friedman's new store opened Oct. 

 11 under the name of the Congress 

 Floral Co., at 226 Michigan Ave. The 

 new ice box which has caused some 

 delay, is finislied in mahogany and 

 cold air takes the place of ice — a fea- 

 ture much appreciated by those in 

 charge, owing to its advantages in 

 point of cleanliness. The floor of the 

 window is constructed of red brici 

 with a two foot wall at the back. This 

 is artistic and the color goes well with 

 the red tile floor of the store and ma- 

 hogany furnishings. The store is in 

 charge of Wm. Graff, Jos. Beeber and 

 Tillie Mayr, all well known to the 

 trade. 



Personal. 



Julius Schnopp of the Alpha is again 

 on the sick list. 



A. L. Randall returned Friday from 

 his Michigan farm and will devote his 

 time to the store for the winter sea- 

 son. 



Friends of J. T. Klimmer are 

 pleased to learn that he is somewhat 

 improved and trust that he will again 

 regain his health. 



Ernest Farley has accepted a posi- 

 tion with the Percy Jones establish- 

 ment, where with his past experience 

 in the wholesale houses he will prove 

 Valuable help. 



Visitors: Mr. Morgan of Adams, 

 Morgan & Co., Paxton, 111.; H. M.

 son, Rockford. 111.
