 held at St. Louis, March 15 to 18, where 

 they will stage an exhibit of plants and 

 supplies. 



While returning from the drug store 

 with some packages for his wife, who 

 has been unwell lately, Dominick Freres 

 slipped on the ice and struck his fore- 

 head against the concrete walk. As a 

 result he is wearing his head in a 

 bandage. 



J. E. Pollworth, of Kennicott Bros. 

 Co., is on a western trip. 



Charles Wiffin, Des Plaines, 111., has 

 sold out his greenhouses. Mr. Wiffin 

 has shipped his stock to O. A. & L. A. 

 Tonner since the spring of 1911 and this 

 firm will continue to handle the stock 

 of these houses. 



Otto N. Stein has resigned his posi- 

 tion as manager of the landscape depart- 

 ment of the Geo. Wittbold Co. and 

 opened offices of his own as a landscape 

 gardener in the First National Bank 

 building. 



B. J. Delinke, retail florist at 3802 

 Chicago avenue, has gone to Springfield, 

 111., to attend a hardware convention. 



The temporary store of George 

 Perdikas, which has been merchandis- 

 ing large quantities of stock at the 

 northwest corner of Wabash avenue and 

 Van Buren street, has not closed with 

 the loss of the corner location, taken 

 over by a drug store, but has moved 

 to the Van Buren street side of the 

 building, where business is as good as 

 could be expected with the weather so

T. Vogel is back on the job at William 

 J. Smyth's, after being on the sick list

Business never was better with the 

 downtown retailers, according to George 

 W. Wienhoeber, who adds that the Janu- 

 ary total at this establishment was fifty 

 per cent greater than in the same month 

 last year. 



An especially good demand for canna 

 roots this season is expected by A. 

 Henderson. 



One of the difficulties of the retail- 

 ers this season is to get and keep a force 

 of messenger boys. Boys still afford the 

 cheapest and best means of delivery for 

 most of the stores.
