CHICAGO NOTES. 



[Oonttnaecl from page 27.] 



them have been planted, according to 

 A. T. Pyfer, This number is about 

 evenly divided among the standard va- 

 rieties and a few of their 2-year-old 

 seedlings. For red, Mr. Pyfer is strong 

 for Herald. 



Visitors. 



Eugene Dailledouze and wife, of 

 Flatbush, Brooklyn, N. Y., spent sev- 

 eral days in town this week on their 

 way home from a trip to Alaska. They 

 left New York June 14 and not until 

 they reached Chicago did they meet 

 any hot weather. Of course Mr. 

 Dailledouze has been visiting carna- 

 tion growers along the route. He says 

 it is plain to be seen the weather has 

 been upsetting the calculations of those 

 hereabouts. 



Julius Staack and wife, John Staack 

 and family and Henry Staack, all of 

 J. Staack & Sons, Moline, HI., stopped 

 in Chicago the first part of the week 

 and visited friends both in and out of 

 the trade. They have been motoring 

 through the Rock river country, in 

 lower Wisconsin and down the lake to 

 Chicago. August 8 they started back 

 to Moline. John Staack says that be- 

 cause of the extreme heat they have 

 been working their greenhouse men 

 from 4 o'clock in the morning till noon, 

 giving them the rest of the day to fol- 

 low their own devices. Julius Staack, 

 who is over 70 years of age, and his 

 wife, stood the long trip well. 



Prank Farney, of M. Rice Co., Phila- 

 delphia, has installed a display of flo- 

 rists' supplies at the Palmer House, in- 

 tending to spend two weeks working 

 this territory. 



S. B. Wertheimer, of New York, has 

 a ribbon store at the Palmer House 

 this week, where he is receiving visits 

 from the customers of Wertheimer 

 Bros. 



Members of the trade were visited 

 last week by George Hampton, treas- 

 urer of the Joseph G. Neidinger Co., 

 Philadelphia. Mr. Hampton arrived in 

 the city in time to hit the end of the 

 record-breaking hot wave. 



Tom Best, of the Stuppy Floral Co., 

 St. Joseph, Mo., and family passed 

 through the city last week on their way 

 to Niagara Falls. 



John Furrow, of Guthrie, Okla., left 

 August 7 in company with Phil Foley, 

 of the Foley Greenhouse Mfg. Co. They 

 will stop off in St. Joseph, Mo. 



Louis G. Venzke, of Holm & Olson, 

 St. Paul, Minn., was a visitor on the 

 market last week. He made most of 

 the trip by water.
