himself to the enjoyment of life. He 

 is a director in the Holton & Hunkel 

 Co., Milwaukee, and will not relax his 

 interest in trade affairs. 



Mn. and Mrs. H. B. Kennicott will 

 motor to Calumet, Mich., July 6 to 

 spend a few days on their peony far;n. 

 Incidentally, Mr. Kennicott will assist 

 August Jurgens, one of the proprietors 

 of the place, in superintending the cut- 

 ting of the peonies. They are expect- 

 ing a larger cut, as this is the first 

 year the farm has been in full crop. 

 Peeonia festiva maxima is the variety 

 principally grown. 



While a considerable number of grow- 

 ers have discarded Mrs. Ward as un- 

 profitable, the A. F. Amling Co., May- 

 wood, considers it one of the beat of 

 money-makers. All of the old plants of 

 Ward are to be carried over and 9,000 

 young plants have been benched. It is 

 noted that July and August bring little 

 call for .Ward, so these months are 

 chosen for resting the old plants, the 

 flowers being in good demand the bal- 

 ance of the year, short Wards being in 

 especial request. 



Last week Lester Partridge, of 

 Sharp, Partridge & Co., suffered a fall, 

 tearing the ligaments in one of his 

 legs. As a result, he is confined to a 

 bed in the North Chicago hospital. It 

 is hoped, however, that he will be fully 

 recovered within another week. 



Next week A. L. Randall and Mrs. 

 Randall will leave for their farm near 

 Benton Harbor, Mich. Five weeks later 

 they will be joined by their daughter, 

 who is a student in Northwestern Uni- 

 versity. On this farm Mr. Randall 

 grows gladioli in large quantities, and 

 he has made preparations to stay with 

 them for four months. 



George Walther, 6310 Normal avenue, 

 has left for California, where he will 

 join his wife and spend the vacation 

 period. At his store the closing days 

 of June were enlivened with a sale of 

 geraniums at 5 cents each. 



John Scheiden, of Evanston, has pur- 

 chased a new touring car to assist him 

 in spending an enjoyable summer.

 Salm, runs down from Union Grove, 

 Wis., for a cha€ with his firm's sell-

During the month of July A. T. 

 Pyfer will be absent from his accus- 

 tomed place. He is on a farm near 

 Polo, 111., for a fortnight's visit with 

 his mother, after which he will lend 

 a hand when Pyfer & Olsen take over 

 the Nepper range in Evanston and 

 start filling it with carnations. In the 

 interval Miss Nettie Parker, secretary 

 of A. T. Pyfer & Co., Inc., will be in 

 charge of the wholesale house. Harry 

 Gardner resumed his place there July 

 3. He was a member of the First regi- 

 ment when the call came, but was out 

 of town on vacation and was left with 

 an honorable discharge. 



During the express drivers' strike 



W. F. Dunteman, of Bensenville, 

 brought his cut to market, where the 

 greater part of it is sold by Erne & 

 Klingel, using his touring car. It is a 

 trip of fifty-six miles, 112 miles round 

 trip, by road. Sometimes he made two 

 trips a day. Not caring to use his 

 pleasure car so strenuously, he bought 

 a Ford with panel body, which, now 

 that the strike is over, makes the trips 

 whenever a special need arises. 



The marriage of William J. Dolezal, 

 the Paradise Florist, 6534 South Hal- 

 sted street, to Miss Estella Enderlin 

 was celebrated June 28 in St. Raphael 's 

 church.
