city of orchids is a thing of the past 

 and that he believes there will be 

 enough flowers to take care of the de- 

 mand from now until the time the spring 

 crops are cut. 



A. Miller, president of the American 

 Bulb Co., is in Seattle, returning from 

 Japan. He has four cars of gigantcum 

 lily bulbs, which have been inspected 

 there, and is engaged in shipping his 

 company's western orders from that 

 point. One car goes to Canada. Mr. 

 Miller reports that fruit growers' de- 

 mands have made it hard to get refrig- 

 erator cars in which to send the Chi- 

 cago shipments. The American Bulb 

 Co. has rented the large double store 

 at 58 South Water street, in which to 

 receive and dispatch the Dutch bulbs 

 now coming to hand in quantity. All 

 the travelers have been called in to as- 

 sist in the work. 



John Jacobs, heretofore on the staff 

 of the E. C. Amling Co., has joined the 

 forces of (Jeorge Wienlioeber. 



E. G. Bowen has bought the Argyle 

 Posy Shop, 1046'X. Argyle street, from 

 Glen Cutler. 



Among the more than 100 names on 

 the payroll of Peter Reinberg are sev- 

 eral of many years' service, for loyalty 

 is one of the thu»^s Mr. Reinberg in- 

 spires in his staff. For instance, 

 Charles Dieterich, the barn boss, has 

 been with Mr. Reinberg thirty years. 

 He had intended a return to Luxem- 

 bourg this summer to look up relatives, 

 but has received word that the only one 

 surviving tlie war is a niece, who is 

 coming to make her home with him. 



Charles Erne seeks larger quarters. 

 His 1)usiness is about as large as it can 

 be in tlie room in the Atlas block. He 

 would like to get larger space on the 

 same floor, liccause he feels that the in- 

 creased facilities would result in an im- 

 mediate increase in the business. 



P. C. Schup]) says tliat, incredible as 

 it may sound, the sales of the J. A. Bud- 

 long Co., of which he is the head, in 

 both August and Se])teniber this year 

 have exceeded the sales for June. Of 

 course the jioint lies in the fact that 

 June always is one of the best months 

 of the twelve and that last June was 

 no exception.

 Flowers. No doubt about the supremacy of the 

 CHICAGO MARKET. Every day more Retail 

 Florists learn to depend upon this MARKET as a 

 most reliable source in which to buy. 



CUT FLOWERS bought in CHICAGO at MAR- 

 KET PRICES always allow for the added profit 

 in Retailing.
