Wehrman Buys Haxdy Place. 



Robert Hardy has sold his establish- 

 ment in Franklin Park to Fred Wehr- 

 man and his son, Elmer. There are 

 •ibout 12,000 feet of glass and five acres 

 "f ground. The houses are in carna- 

 tions this season, but are likely soon to 

 ;,'o into chrysanthemums and sweet peas, 

 as Elmer Wehrman, who will have 

 '■harge of the growing, obtained his 



training with his uncle, Henry Wehr- 

 man, at Maywood. Elmer, who is 24 

 years of age, has just been discharged 

 from the army. 



They Liked the Sample. 



"It was the best St. Valentine's busi- 

 ness the trade in Chicago ever had; the 

 best for everybody; by far the best." 

 The speaker was L. R. Bohannon, presi- 

 dent of the Retail Florists' Association, 

 and he added: "Can you suggest a rea- 

 son for it other than the cooperative 

 effort we recently set going?" 



The association published two large 

 advertisements to call public attention 



to the exceptional fitness of flowers to 

 express the sentiments of the day and 

 supplied all florists with posters, but, 

 best of all, it inspired in the trade the 

 wish individually to make an extra ef- 

 fort for the day. The result was that 

 practically every store in town made a 

 special window decoration and display. 

 The result of the combined effort was 

 so satisfactory that it will be continued. 

 The next stunt will be a city-wide 

 special sale timed to occur at the first 

 sign of an approaching oversupply of 

 flowers. The funds already are in hand,
