The Garland flower store will be 

 opened at 7409 North Clark street next 

 week by J. A. Weber, The new store 

 will be operated by Mrs, Weber, her 

 husband continuing to manage the drug 

 store next door, which, he has owned 

 for several years. 



- iLily of the valley has sold for 6 

 cents during the last week. This is not 

 so high a price as has been reported in 

 eastern markets, but it shows the dimin- 

 ishing supply here. H. N. Bruns, who 

 is the principal forcer, says he will be 

 able to put a moderate quantity on the 

 market for a considerable time, but he 

 does not see how any important further 

 supply of pips is to be obtained under 

 present conditions. 



Any florist who is interested in out- 

 door work will do well to devote an 

 afternoon to a visit to Mt. Greenwood 

 cemetery. There is no more beautiful 

 spot within a day's journey, and none 

 so well maintained. The picture con- 

 tinues to improve from year to year. 

 The greenhouses, too, are as neat as a 

 new pin and will afford special inter- 

 est for carnation and chrysanthemum 

 growers. 



The Civil Service Board of the West 

 Park Commissioners will hold an exam- 

 ination October 3, in the pavilion at 

 Garfield park, for florists for the con- 

 servatory and gardens, the positions 

 paying $80 to $90 per month. The ex- 

 amination is open to men over 21, re- 

 gardless of residence. Application 

 blanks may be obtained by addressing 

 Fred G. Heuchling, superintendent of 

 employment. Union parlc.

 ing Edward Ahles, of the A. L. Randall

 from a short vacation. 



After spending a most enjoyable time 

 at Ocean City, N. J., and other eastern 

 points following her attendance on the 

 S. A. F. convention in Houston, Tex., 

 M. C. Gunterberg returned to the city
