That this market is overbuilt enough 

 to supply the normal growth of the 

 •egitimate retail flower trade for sev- 

 eral years is the belief of John P. 

 Kisclij who says the only possible re- 

 ^^'^ is the indefinite continuation and 

 Proli.ible increase of the department 

 stoi,- cheap sales. 



. One of the interesting changes is the 

 jnci.asing use of the miscellaneous 

 nowcrs, like calendulas, lupines, corn- 

 now. rs, shrub blooms, etc. Until re- 

 ceiMiy this class of stock has had little 

 ai' in the Chicago market, where

leaders in the use of what some call 



the "novelty" flowers, but many others 

 now are carrying them regularly. 



T. E. Waters this week employed a 

 novel idea in sending out some circular 

 matter for the supply department of 

 Poehlmann Bros. Co. The envelopes 

 were addressed on the addressograph 

 and inside was an order blank with 

 the customer's name and address filled 

 in by the same machine. The post- 

 office accepted them at the rate for 

 circulars. 



The average daily sunshine in June 

 was eleven hours and forty -eight min- 

 utes, which was seventy-six per cent 

 of the possible and five per cent more 

 than the average. The precipitation 

 was more than three times that of 

 June in 1913. 



In the Insurance Exchange building 

 Ben Zalinger and his brother-in-law, 

 Mr. Hirsch, have done a perfectly sat- 

 isfactory business since their opening 

 in February. They do not expect to 

 do much during July and August, but 

 anticipate a good season for 1914-15. 



At the meeting of the stockholders 

 of the Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- 

 ciation, July 6, the same officers were 

 reelected for the coming year: Presi- 

 dent, Edward Meuret; vice-president 

 and treasurer, Charles McCauley; sec- 

 retary, George C. Weiland. Rudolph 

 Ellsworth was added to the board of 

 directors. The work of Paul R. Kling- 

 sporn was complinieuted by the officers. 



John Sinner and N. J. Wietor left 

 July 7 for a two weeks' fishing trip 

 to Hazelhurst, Wis. 



The store of J. E, Jensen, 5303 West 

 Chicago avenue, will soon undergo re- 

 <lecorating. He intends to have the 

 fixtures in mahogany finish. 



After being home three weeks be- 

 cause of an operation for appendicitis, 

 Robert Northam is again on the job 

 at George Reinberg's. 



Work of repairing benches and glass
