bills. Pink roses predominate and are 

 the best buy, Columbia especially so. 

 The Jewish new year made a little 

 extra business at the opening of the 

 present week, but not so much as it 

 would have done had the weather been 

 less summer-like. 



Eroeschells to Build. 

 Kroeschell Bros. Co. and Kroeschell 

 Bros. Ice Machine Co., both of which 

 do a large business with florists, 

 announce that they are to start work 

 at once on a new factory building 

 which, with the site, will cost around 

 $750,000. A tract of land about 300x 

 600, on the south side of Diversey ave- 

 nue, just west of the St. Paul tracks, 

 has been bought from the Healy In- 

 dustrial district, through J. H. Van 

 Vlissingen & Co. Plans have been 

 drawn by Davidson & Weiss, architects, 

 and Neiler, Bich & Co., engineers, for 

 a machine shop, boiler shop and a two- 

 story administration building, all fire- 

 proof. The Kroeschell companies have 

 been for many years at the northeast 

 corner of Erie and Kingsbury streets. 



To the F. T. D. Meeting. 

 Chicago will be well represented, 

 next month, at the Indianapolis meet- 

 ing of the F. T. D. The dates are 

 October 12 and 13. Apparently actu- 

 ated by the fact that a lower berth 

 from Chicago to Indianapolis now costs 

 $4.05, Michael Barker, chairman of the 

 Florists' Club's transportation com- 

 mittee, has arranged for the Chicago 

 party to leave at 5:30 p. m., railroad 

 time, October 11, arriving at Indian- 

 apolis at 10:30. Members passing 

 through Chicago en route to Indian- 

 apolis are invited to join the Chicago 

 crowd. It is recommended that space 

 be arranged for well in advance. 



Peter Beinberg in the Movies. 

 President Peter Beinberg, florist and 

 chairman of the county board and the 

 forest preserve, "registered" pleasure 

 when he made his debut as a motion 

 picture star one day last week. Sup- 

 ported by an all star cast, consisting 

 of members of the county board. Chief 

 Forester Kennicott, of the forest pre- 

 serve, and 200 poor children, their 

 mothers, nurses, doctors and camp

 his first appearance in a pictorial 

 weekly. According to reports, the pic- 

 tores, which will show the world what 



Cook county can do, were taken at 

 Camp Beinberg in the forest preserve, 

 and show the president feeding candy 

 to the kids, and smiling, despite the
