Nothing in recent years has so en- 

 grossed the attention of Peter Beinberg 

 as has the Forest Preserve. He is chair- 

 man of the board of commissioners and 

 has given freely of his time and means 

 for the development of our outer park

 Mr. Beinberg 's commission concluded 

 one of the largest of single additions 

 to the system. It consists of 309 acres 

 in the town of Thornton and cost 

 $557,100. 



Frank Felke is located at Elkhart,

 greenhouses at Wilmette are being op- 

 erated by a tenant, but are for sale. 



Casimir Gouza has bought a neat new 

 bungalow on the north side and has de- 

 voted a week's vacation to building as 

 neat a garage. 



According to the reports published in 

 the daily papers, Schofield's Flower 

 Shop, on North State street, has a 

 flower bill of $500 against the city, 

 which the city cannot pay for lack of 

 funds. Mr. Schofield has taken an I. O. 

 U. for the amount. 



A. Henderson is contemplating a trip 

 to New York to meet the bulbs now 

 afloat. 



Last spring A. Miller, of the A. B. C, 

 advised several growers to plant Gladi- 

 olus Arizona instead of Pink Beauty. 

 Now he points to the flowers in market 

 as confirming his judgment. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. has a wonderful 

 new supplies catalogue almost ready for 

 the press. 



The Briggs Floral Co., at its north side 

 store, has a new front. Situated at a 

 busy boulevard crossing, the enlarged 

 and projecting windows will give op- 

 portunity for a display which will be of 

 rare advertising value. 



Bernard Sherman, of W. J. Smyth's 

 force, has been on a vacation trip in 

 Canada. 



Herbert Stone, manager of Peacock's 

 Flower Shop, always has an attractive 

 window. At present it is a garden 

 scene, with a house of white mice, which 

 Mr. Stone finds almost as good a side 

 line as canaries and goldfish.
