A. Miller, president of the American 

 Bulb Co,, waa born March 4, 1887. 



Peter Eeinberg, florist and political 

 leader, was 61 years of age March 5. 

 He was born in 1858, at a spot now 

 covered by one of his greenhouses. 



Various Notes. 



The most widely circt'ated daily pa- 

 per has been publishing a series of 

 articles on the high cost of dying. Un- 

 dertakers do not appear in an enviable 

 light, but florists do not sympathize. 

 In this city there is little friendship 

 between the two trades. The under- 

 takers seem to regard flowers as an 

 unmitigated nuisance and, because they 

 make nothing on them, they frequently 

 handle the flowers in a way that would 

 be resented if the tables were turned. 



C. A. Samuelson is expected home 

 about March 15, to remain until after 

 Easter, when he will return to his apple 

 orchards in Idaho. Each year Mr. 

 Samuelson devotes a larger part of his 

 time to the orchards, leaving the man- 

 agement of the store more and more to 

 Mrs. Samuelson and Edward Enders, 

 who has been there thirty-one years. 



Simon Durnberg, who travels south 

 and west for A. Henderson & Co., has 

 been having an excellent trip and re- 

 ports the trade in his territory never 

 was more active. Joseph Marks also 

 has gone on the road again. 



G. M. Eeburn has been at home for 

 several days and has been visiting 

 growers in the Moline-Knight. He is 

 acquiring a reputation as a speed king. 

 On a recent trip to Morton Grove he 

 had John Haase, of Pekin, 111., as a pas- 

 senger and Mr. Haase says he never 

 rode so fast before. 



Miss Clara Masilotti, proprietor of a 

 flower store at 1001 South Eacine ave- 

 nue, has announced herself as a candi- 

 date for alderman — or is it alderwoman? 

 — to represent the Nineteenth ward. 

 She will make the race on the ticket of 

 the new Labor party. Miss Masilotti 

 is 25 years old and a native of Chicago. 



H. A. Woolf , who has been a member 

 of the staff of The Eeview for a year 

 or more, will transfer to the force of 

 the Chicago Flower Growers' Associa- 

 tion March 10. 



It is gratifying to know of the many retail florists who 

 appreciate a Wholesale House that has taken the lead 

 to conform to the principles of "Wholesale Only."
