in which it was charged that the rate 

 of 40 cents a ton, applicable from Gale- 

 wood, 111., to Morton Grove, 111., on 

 interstate shipments of coal received 

 from connecting lines at the former 

 point, was discriminatory. 



This has been the biggest season the 

 company ever has had on young stock, 

 in spite of the fact that the usual 

 quantity of carnation cuttings was not 

 available for sale. The young rose 

 stock was extra good and a larger busi- 

 ness than usual has been done in this 

 department. There were several or- 

 ders that ran into thousands of dollars, 

 but the Cudahy order holds the record. 

 Mums are now moving well. 



If you want a line on the real situa- 

 tion in the coal trade, watch Uie prq*

Vaiious Notes. 



At the store of the E. C. Aiuling Co. 

 it is reported that the Weiss & Meyer 

 Co., Maywood, last week decided to at 

 once erect three more houses, each 

 34x375, to be planted with Beauties. 



The vacant square bounded by Forty- 

 seventh and Forty-eighth streets, Ellis 

 avenue and Drexel boulevard, long held 

 by the Field estate, last week passed 

 into the hands of Sherman T. Cooper, a 

 builder, who plans its improvement. It 

 is the finest location in Chicago for a 

 high-class florist. 



Last week George Wienhoeber and an 

 assistant went to Battle Creek with the 

 flowers for the C. W. Post funeral. 



The death, May 12, at Ocean Park, 



i C^, of an old-time Chicago florist, the 



senior partner of McDougal & Neuman, 



is reported by A. C. Spencer. Mr. Mc- 

 Dougal went to California in 1906, after 

 having for some years conducted a 

 store on Milwaukee avenue. He was 

 employed by a Los Angeles department 

 store and fell dead while on the street. 

 He leaves a wife, but there is no in- 

 formation as to children. The funeral 

 was held May 15. 



.John Zeeh says one of the items that 

 will be in large supply for Memorial 

 day will be sweet peas. 



After having been delayed by strike* 

 in the building trades, the Ickes-Braun 

 Mill Co. started its machinery May 20, 

 only a few days behind the schedule 

 laid out when contracts were let. 



A prosperous business has been es- 

 tablished by Ploren Cipar at 7121 South 

 Halsted street. Mr. Cipar was for
