in liandling a steadily increasing plant 

 trade. 



The J. A. Budlong establishment is 

 becoming known in the market as "The 

 Corner House," which in Wall street 

 is the title given J. P. Morgan & Co. 



With an early expiration of his lease 

 at 11 West Randolph street, .John A. 

 Huebner is looking about for a loca- 

 tion where he can better his facilities. 

 Of course a renewal of his present lease 

 means an increased rental. 



Because he had an excellent crop of 

 gladiolus bulbs at his farm in Michigan 

 this year A. Ij. Randall considers him- 

 self particularly lucky. 



Although he has been uniformly suc- 

 cessful, A. H. Schneider never had a 

 better season with cyclamens than this 

 year. The plants were unusually fine 

 and as early as December 15 he had sold 

 every one except those set aside for his 

 own retail store in Oak Park. 



E. T. Wanzer, who sold his green- 

 houses at Wheaton several years ago 

 and retired, now lives in Oak Park. He 

 still keeps in touch with the trade by 

 frequent visits to the A. L. Randall Co., 

 where he shipped his flowers in the old 

 days. 



The George Wittbold Co. sent out an 

 unusually elaborate folder to its retail 

 trade this Christmas. It consisted of 

 eight pages printed in colors and en-

F. .1. Soibior opened up a retail store 

 at 2004 Armitage avenue this week. 



Sam Pcarcc, whose present specialty 

 is Easter lilies, soon will be cutting 

 bulbous stock in quantity. Anticipat- 

 ing a good season, he has made arrange- 

 ments to increase his output consider- 

 ably during the spring of 1917. 



An attractive changeable aquarium 

 containing goldfish and surmounted 

 with a spray of vandas was on display 

 in one of George Wienhoeber's win- 

 dows last week. This aquarium has re- 

 cently been patented and that at Mr. 

 Wienhoeber's store is one of the first 

 manufactured. An electric lighting de- 

 vice beneath the glass tank reflects red, 

 lavender and yellow light through the 



aquarium. Mr. Wienhoober has sevcrii 

 of tlioin for his Christmas trade. 



"Wanted — Girls to Make Wreaths' 

 is the sign tliat has decorated the fron' 

 of Winterson's Seed Store for severa 

 days. The demand for holly wreath- 

 and lycopodium roping has been un 

 usually good and help enough to kec]
