 grown Under the very best methods and skill. The advantage of buying such stock, absolutely guaranteed as 

 to quality and freshness, and brought direct from the greenhouse to our store three times per day, is that

SAM SELIGMAN, West^rn^Representative 



bonds and otherwise increase their ex- 

 penses goes into effect August 1. The 

 Chicago cut flower commission men have 

 had no notice in the matter as yet, but 

 are wondering if the demands which 

 may be made .upon them under the law 

 -will necessitate an increase in the com- 

 mission rate. 



F. M. Johnson says a remarkable 

 thing is happening this July: The 

 month, once considered a dull one in 

 florists' supplies, will make a new rec- 

 ord for shipments for the A. L. Randall 

 Co., the billingi exceeding any month 



in the previous experience of the sup- 

 plies department of the house. 



The Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- 

 ciation has placed an order with Kroes- 

 chell Bros. Ice Machine Co. for a re- 

 frigerating machine to cool its two 

 large storage boxes, the price of ice 

 having risen until the artificial system 

 shows increased advantages. 



John F. Broadbeck recently returned 

 from service in the army and is running 

 the greenhouses of his father, P. M. 

 Broadbeck, in Evanston. That veteran 

 rose grower was mightily relieved, not 



only to have the son safe home, but to 

 turn the responsibilities of the place 

 over to the younger man. It was hard 

 to get help during the war and there 

 were times when the owner ran the 40,- 

 000 feet of glass all alone for weeks at 

 a stretch. 



A. L. Vaughan says that the CO. D. 

 shipment of flowers no longer is a pro- 

 tection to the wholesaler, the govern- 

 ment-operated express company being 

 slower to settle than the most hard- 

 shelled debtor in the trade. Mr. 

 Vaughan says he has over $500 of O. O.
