ter of A. H. Schneider, whose father's 

 ■well known flower store stands next 

 door to the equally well known bank of 

 which E. C. Amling is president. The 

 ceremony was performed in Grace 

 Lutheran church and the decorations 

 went some little way toward clearing 

 up the surplus of Easter lilies. The 

 groom was Arthur L. Thorns. , 



According to Prof. H. C. Cowles, 

 work on the new botanical gardens of 

 the University of Chicago will begin 

 soon. The site selected, northeast cor- 

 ner of Cottage Grove avenue and the 

 Midway plaisance, could not have been 

 more admirably chosen. The gardens 

 will occupy the entire block and will 

 be surrounded by a wall in harmony 

 with the English Gothic architecture of 

 the university buildings. 



After an operation for appendicitis 

 and a period of convalescence, William 

 Graff, of Graff & Dressel, left Colura- 

 bns hospital April 24. Mr. Graff was 

 leaving just as John Zech arrived for 

 a similar operation. 



Twenty benches devoted to young 

 stock are to be found in the green- 

 houses of Wietor Bros., even though 

 several Beauty and rose houses already 

 are replanted. The field planting of 

 carnations has not yet begun, but will 

 be the next big job tackled. 



C. C. Wakeling is the grower In 

 charge of the W. E. Lynch greenhouses 

 on Harlem avenue. With a partner, 

 he leased the place last falL They 

 have cut good stock, but prices have 

 been too low this season for a carna- 

 tion grower to make mneh money in a 

 rented range.

Winterson's Seed Store decorated the 

 Chinese float, the float representing the 

 Cubs' baseball team and half a dozen 

 automobiles for the Prosperity parade, 

 E. F. Winterson and his staff working 

 all day and all night April 25. 



After three months of effort to get 

 his plants back into shape after an at- 

 tack of illuminating gas, P. M. Brod- 

 beck this week has begun cutting a 

 few roses. Quite a number of his 

 plants were killed by the gas, but most 

 of them are now in a fair state of 

 health. 



Mrs. George Wells, whose store is on 

 Colorado avenue, had several big pieces 

 for the Prosperity parade and the in- 

 auguration, April 26. For one of the 

 pieces for a railroad organization the 

 A. L. Bandall Co. made a wire frame 

 that embodied a train of cars and all 

 the special activities of the new mayor.

The trade took an important part in 

 the dedicatory exercises that attended 

 the opening of the concrete road at 

 Niles, April 22. Peter Reinberg, as 

 president of the county board, wielded 

 a gilded shovel in clearing the last bit 

 of dirt from the pavement, on which 

 Virginia Poehlmann, damghter of the 

 president of the villedjfe of Morton 

 Grove, broke a bottle o^champagne as 

 she cried, "I christen ftiee Milwaukee 

 ''avenue." George Harrat, as president 

 of the Niles Improvement Association, 

 delivered the address of welcome.
