CHICAGO, ILL, 



OfHce awl SUire: 1 78 N. Wabash Avesse 

 Lone Distance Phone. Central 1457 



to the intersection of Michigan avenue 

 jind Twenty-second street. In its early 

 days it was one of the most fashionable 

 sections of Chicago. As the growth of 

 the city drove the residences out, there 

 was consideration of a removal of the 

 flower store to some other locality, but 

 recently another trend has been strong- 

 ly apparent. The character of the busi- 

 ness places of the neighborhood is 

 changing and is a marked improvement. 

 With the increase in the business popu- 

 lation of the neighborhood, the call for 

 flowers has increased, so that this 

 spring's business has been the largest 

 in the history of the store. There is 

 still some family trade, principally by 

 telephone, but there has been a great 

 increase in the cash business and in 

 the call for funeral flowers. The store, 

 according to Ed Enders, now makes as 



many funeral pieces in a day as were 

 made in a week when the neighborhood 

 was one of residences. 



C. J. Michelsen reports with a smile 

 that the May sales of the E. C. Amling 

 Co. were even better than the April 

 sales, made historic by a big crop of 

 Easter lilies on a market that hadn't 

 many others. It had not been hoped 

 to equal the April record for many a 

 month. 



Walter Kennicott, one of the largest 

 of the local peony growers, reports that 

 he cut his first Old Red May 31. Since 

 then they have been received from a 

 number of the local shippers and the 

 home season will be on in full force 

 before the week is out. The stock of 

 storable quality is going into the 

 freezer because at i)ros(>iit tlie market 

 will not take it. 



PEONIES 



Will have an abundance of line cuts, 

 handled just right, from June 2 to 20. 

 $4.00 per 100, cash.
