which indicates many of them quickly 

 will develop good profits. A. M. Ander- 

 son is preparing for another trip to Eu- 

 rope on a buying trip for Randall, and 

 C. H. Fisk leaves this week on his trip 

 to Japan and the Orient. 



E. C. Amling returned from California 

 January 24. His chief errand was to 

 escort his daughter, Mrs. Bailey, and her 

 children, but he will devote a few days 

 to business matters here before going 

 back to Los Angeles. Mr. Amling has 

 purchased thirty-two acres of land on 

 the edge of Los Angeles and is getting 

 estimates on the cost of improvements 

 which will include a big range of green- 



houses. His son, Harold, who has been 

 at Culver Military Academy, will be 

 associated with him and has been left 

 in charge of the grading work now go- 

 ing on. Alois Frcy came east with the 

 Amling party, for a look at his place at 

 Crown Point. He now is located at San 

 Fernando, Cal., growing bulbs in the 

 open. 



For many years the flower stand at 

 108 North State street, corner of Wash- 

 ington street, has been conducted as the 

 Stewart Floral Co., taking its name 

 from that of the building. A large busi- 

 ness has been built up and advancing 

 rentals have resulted in a decision to 



remove to a separate store. The room 

 at 61 West Randolph street has been 

 leased for ten years at a total rental of 

 $45,000 and will be fitted up as a first- 

 class flower store for early occupancy. 



During last week's heavy snowa it 

 twice was necessary for Poehlmann Bros. 

 Co. to break the road for nine and one- 

 half miles from Morton Grove, using 

 plows and shovelers, to permit the 

 trucks to bring their cut to market. In 

 places there were drifts six feet high. 

 John Poehlmann says their cut has in- 

 creased twenty-five per cent in a week. 



Chicago was well represented at last
