 Chicago Rose Co., at Libertyville, one 

 day last week and says the stock is in 

 splendid condition. 



Jos. Foerster, at George Reinberg's, 

 says last week was the b^t in the his- 

 tory of the establishment, with the exi 

 ception of holiday weeks. A big cut of, 

 Beauties was largely responsible for/ it. 



L. Coatsworth went to Canada last 

 night for a fortnight's shooting before

 has been ill with typhoid fever at the 

 old family home. 



E. C. Amling says that he sees in the 

 present market another evidence of the 

 orthodoxy of what he has been preach- 

 ing to growers for years. He finds all 

 the larger grades of mums, such as will 

 fetch $1.50 'per dozen or up, in good de- 

 mand, while this week the market is 

 overloaded with small stock selling at 

 $4 to $6 per hundred. It pays to pro- 

 duce the best grades of stock. 



A. R. Ratsch, 2023 West Madison 

 street, caused the arrest of Mrs. Mary 

 Griffith, who lives at 4155 Grand boule- 

 vard, on a charge of securing money by 

 false pretenses. It is alleged that the 



woman secured money, not only from the 

 florist but also from numerous others, 

 on an advertising proposition which she 

 never fulfilled. The officials of the Gar- 

 field Park sanitarium and the Theodore 

 Roosevelt hospital are behind the prose- 

 cution.

Manusus has advanced a step, having 

 opened an attractive flower store occupy- 

 ing the window and one side of the room

 ing a more important factor in the

 for the dinner given for Jas. Keeley, of

 in chrysanthemums this season, planted 

 late, but counted on for Thanksgiving,

 tion of the trade as a large operator in

 democratic candidate for sanitary trus- 

 tee. Each has good prospects for elec- 

 tion.

 It is an easy doer and makes a splendid 

 flower.
