Mention The Rerlew when too write. 



That removal from Michigan avenue 

 to the Lemoyne building was a wise 

 move for the Chicago Flower Growers' 

 Association is shown by Manager 

 Klingsporn's statement that sales have 

 shown an increase every month as com- 

 pared with the last record for that 

 month in the old location, some months 

 as much increase as $13,000. 



Wearying of the every-day use of a 

 6-cylinder car weighing 3,800 pounds, 

 C. L. Washburn bought a 1,100-pouncl 

 machine, with which he and Mrs. Wash- 

 burn have been having much pleasure 

 since it was delivered about three weeks 

 ago. All the trimmings in the acces- 

 sories catalogue were added to it and 

 Mr. Washburn calls it a flivver dressed 

 up in Sunday clothes. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. received four 

 carloads of azaleas from Ghent, Bel- 

 gium, November 15. The stock arrived 

 in excellent condition. 



The changes incident to the enlarge- 

 ment of the J. A. Budlong store have 

 been completed and the establishment 

 is a model for arrangement. Occupying 

 a width of two stores, the room is more 



nearly square than are most stores, 

 witli the result that many steps are 

 saved. The iceboxes and shipping de- 

 partment are across the rear, with 

 dressing-room and box storage above. 

 The ollice is in one corner at the front. 

 There are three entrances. But the best 

 feature is the splendid light, as, being 

 located on the corner, all of two sides 

 are plate glass. 



Although he calls it lucky, A. T. 

 Pyfer congratulates himself that the 

 sheds of Pyfer & Olsem are as full of 

 coal as they will hold. It was a case 

 of forethought that has banished worry, 

 saved a goodly sum and placed them 

 in a position where tliey even have been 

 able to turn over a car to a less provi- 

 dent neighbor. 



A bright, new Overland delivery car 

 has appeared on the street, carrying the 

 name of A. Fisher, 2737 North Clark 

 street. 



E. F. Kurowski, president of the 

 John C. Moninger Co., has been con- 

 fined to his home for several days by 

 an infection of the right wrist akin 



to blood poisoning. He has been re- 

 quired to sit for hours at a time with 

 his arm on a hot water bottle. 



The George Wittbold Co. moved into 

 its new oflSces last week and is com- 

 pleting the installation of the store fix- 

 tures with the expectation of fully oc- 

 cupying the new building in time for 

 tlie Thanksgiving trade. 



The crowd at the free flower show at 

 Garfield park Sunday afternoon, No- 

 vember 19, was so great that wise per- 

 sons did not venture into the crush, 



John Evert, 2059 Devon avenue, has 

 a fine crop of carnations coming on. 

 He expects to cut heavily for Christ- 

 mas. 



Miss L. A. Tonner is establishing a 

 wholesale and retail pecan nut business, 

 with headquarters in her store at 30 

 East Randolph street. Through this 

 channel she purposes to sell the pecans 

 which she grows on her groves in 

 Georgia. The shelling department is in 

 Oak Park, where adequate facilities are 

 provided and it is possible to keep the 

 girls in white gloves and aprons. As
