The Florists' Review 



March 23, 1916. 



and a severe attack of neuralgia, Otto 

 Frese, of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., is 

 still on the job. John Enders is con- 

 valescing as rapidly as could be ex- 

 pected. 



Paul Klingsporn, manager of the Chi- 

 cago Flower Growers' Association, is 

 regretting his inability to attend the 

 National Flower Show, which will be 

 held in his home town. 



After a most enjoyable visit with 

 relatives in Bock Island, Mrs. Allie 

 Zech returned to Chicago March 19. 



As a first step in preparedness for 

 Easter, (Louis W. Biermann, of Elm- 

 hurst, made a thorough inspection of 

 the plant department of tl^e Poehlmann 

 Bros. Co., at Morton Grove, this week. 



Several nice landscaping contracts 

 are occupying the attention of D. D. P. 

 Roy these days. 



The Golden Floral Co., a wholesale 

 establishment, was officially opened for 

 business March 16 at 173 North Wabash 

 avenue. J. M. Lamport, manager, says 

 the new house will specialize in out- 

 door-grown stock and novelties. A 

 remarkable feature of this concern is 

 the fact that all stock handled by it 

 is grown in California, whence ship- 

 ments are made twice a week. 



The smiling face of Charles Erne was 

 seen on the market March 20 for the 

 first time since his sojourn in Michael 

 Beese hospital. It is hard to believe 

 that he has been ill. His general ap- 

 pearance would indicate a two weeks' 

 vacation at Palm Beach. Mr. Erne 

 said the long hours in a hospital ward 

 would have been unendurable but for 

 The Beview, which was sent to the 

 hospital regularly. 



Grafted rose stock has sold better 

 this year than ever before in the ex- 

 perience of C. L. Washburn, of Bassett 

 & Washburn. Ground was broken 

 March 20 for the new greenhouses at 

 Greggs. According to Mr. Washburn, 

 this will give that firm 400,000 square 

 feet of glass, and he says by the end 

 of next year the total will be 1,000,- 

 000 square feet. This, he figures, will 

 keep a building crew on the job until 

 late fall and will give it work again 

 as soon as frost is out of the ground 

 next spriilig. Sunday, March 19, the 

 Greggs range was visited by Otto and 

 Walter Amling, who motored over from 

 Maywood. 



The shipping department of J. A. 

 Budlong can again take a long breath. 

 Boswell Schupp has sent word from 

 Hot Springs, Ark., that he will be ba(^k 

 on the job by the end of the week. 



Some excellent stocks are being 

 shipped by Charles Wiffin, of Des 

 Plaines, to O. A. & L. A. Tonner. 



March 20, the first day of spring, J. 

 C. Michal opened his new store at 1168 

 Sixty-third street. Handsome new fix- 

 tures have been installed, so that the 

 store makes a good appearance in spite 

 of its old-fashioned front, which no 

 doubt soon will come out. There now 

 are four flower stores within two blocks 

 on that street. 



Chicago is too well represented in 

 this week's obituary column. It re- 

 cords the death of the father of the 

 Klehm brothers and the wives of Leon- 

 ard EUevern and J. C. Plumb.
