Eugene Dramm and John Michelaen. 

 The drivers were Harold Amling and 

 Herlnan Bruns. After an inspection 

 of the French & Salm establishment, 

 which is devoted exclusively to the 

 Mrs. Russell rose and in which the 

 ftock is in extremely promising condi- 

 tion, the party was taken to Brown 

 lake for dinner by Messrs. French and 

 8alm. The round trip of 173 miles, in- 

 cluding stops, occupied only eleven 

 hours. ■ 



Everyone in any way concerned with 

 bulbs has been busy during the last 

 few days, heavy shipments of Dutch 

 Stock having arrived. Retail sales do 

 |iot begin until there have been heavy 

 frosts, but J. P. Degnan, of Winter- 

 Bon's Seed Store, says the wholesale 

 demand is the best yet known. Those 

 who force bulbs are buying in larger 

 quantities than ever before. 



It may be that the excellence of the 

 present crop of Milady has nothing to 

 do with it, but W, J. Keimel is dis- 

 posing of his old Hudson Six and in 

 a few days expects delivery of a new 

 H. A. Lozier 12-cylinder touring car 

 and a Scripps-Booth runabout. 



P. L. McKee, of the American Green- 

 house Mfg. Co., and Adolph Nielsen, 

 with W. H. Gullett & Sons, gave the 

 St. Louis market the once over • last 

 week. 



After having spent three weeks on 

 aa eastern trip, as far as New York 

 city, A. Miller, president of the Amer- 

 ican Bulb Co., has returned to his of- 

 fice confident that the season now open- 

 ing will be the best the trade ever has 

 known. 



What was reported as a rumor in The 

 Review of last week is confirmed. 

 Walter A. Amling, son of William 

 Amling, of Maywood, will be married 

 to Miss Mattie GroU, in Holgate, O., 

 October 26. Mr. Amling met his fu- 

 ture wife while vacationing in the 

 east. The young couple will make their 

 home in Maywood. 



Now that W. J. Smyth has com- 

 pleted the alterations in his store front 

 he has one of the showiest places in 

 Chicago. He has faced it to the left. 

 Whereas it formerly was narrow and 

 deep, facing on Thirty-first street, it 

 now is wide and shallow, facing on 

 Michigan boulevard, with the principal 

 entrance still in the corner. The plate 

 glass frontage is three times what it 

 was. With the great windows full of 

 palms, ferns and blooming plants and 

 the interior brilliantly illuminated by 

 ceiling lamps, the store is one of the 

 avenue's brightest spots, by day or by 

 night. 



The eldest daughter of Charles W. 

 Johnson is to be married this week. 

 The groom is not a florist.. 



This is nativity week at Winterson's 

 Seed Store, Edgar F. Winterson, Jr., 

 having been 25 years of age October 

 11 and J. P. Degnan celebrating his 

 forty-third birthday October l'6. When 

 L. H. Winterson was connected with 

 the concern he inaugurated the festivi- 

 ties, his day being October 10. 



Nothing succeeds like success, says 

 Herman Wallace, of the W. L. Palin- 

 sky greenhouses and store, 2865 Palmer 

 avenue. The cause of the remark is a 

 fine %-ton Studebaker car that is now 

 helping in the delivery department. A 

 new car is an expense, but it is also 

 a business getter. 



Among those who think Russell will 

 be even more popular next year than 

 it has been this, is A. T. Pyfer, of
