A 7-pas8enger Oldsmobile and a new 

 delivery car will add materially both 

 to the pleasure and the business equip- 

 ment of Oscar Metz, 5525 Harper 

 avenue. 



The Chrysanthemum Society of 

 America announced last week that it 

 had again appointed N. J. Wietor chair- 

 man of its Chicago committee to pass 

 on seedlings. The other members of 

 the local committee are George Asmus 

 and William Tricker. The committee 

 will meet each Saturday during Octo- 

 ber and November. 



After a tour lasting almost four 

 months, Albert Amling, Mrs. Amling 

 and their sons, Paul and Walter, are 

 again at their home at Maywood. They 

 started out June 3 in their automobile 

 and made a trip to the cities of the 

 Pacific northwest, thence down the 



coast to San Diego and home over the 

 southern route. 



There promises to be a fine lot of 

 special prizes for the fall flower show. 

 W. J. Keimel and Guy French, presi- 

 dent and secretary of the Florists' 

 Club, have taken it upon themselves to

 of tall vases worth $50 and the E. C. 

 Amling Co. contributed a pair of silver 

 cups. 



The early chrysanthemums have

 to make daily shipments from now till 

 summer comes again. 



C. J. Strombach was in the market 

 September 27, purchasing flowers for 

 the funeral of his son-in-law, H. W. 

 Harris, who died at Wilmette Septem- 

 ber 25, aged 47. The funeral was held 

 September 28, interment being at Rose-

 years of age, still is actively engaged

 since his retirement after many years 

 of service at Lincoln park. 



Dutch bulbs are occupying the un- 

 divided attention of the staff at Win- 

 terson 's Seed Store this week. De-
