John Degnan announced that from 

 now to convention time there will be 

 bowling at Mussey's alleys, Dearborn 

 and Madison streets, every Tuesday 

 evening at 8 o'clock. 



Vaughan 's Seed Store exhibited Azalea 

 Yodogawa, a beautiful Japanese sort, 

 and the pink spiraea, Peachblossom ; also 

 a fine Azalea Mollis. 



Ahead of the Demand. 



In the matter of this season's crop 

 of white lilac, now nearing an end, the 

 A. L. Eandall Co. has been well ahead 

 of the demand. The crop has brought a 

 better average price than in any pre- 

 vious year. As soon as it was known 

 when the first lot would be ready the 

 date was advertised, so that retailers 

 could know in advance when the lilac 

 would be available. The result was that 

 advance orders were booked for about 

 all the first lot. Pursuing this line, the 

 supply was never greater than the de- 

 mand and prices were held firm all sea- 

 son. It never is easy to put prices up 

 after a congestion has forced them down. 



Foley's Two Factories. 



Pretty nearly any one would be satis- 

 fied to run just one greenhouse material 

 mill, but for the next fortnight the 

 Foley Mfg. Co. will run two. After 

 vexatious delays the new building is 

 ready for occupancy, at just about the 

 busiest season. So one machine is being 

 taken down at a time and set running 

 in the new location, thus keeping two 

 factories going instead of one and turn- 

 ing out orders as usual. The work of 

 removal is expected to be completed 

 about May 1. 



Reinberg's Orchids. 



George Beinberg has received a part 

 of his shijvnent of orchid plants from 

 the Julius Eoehrs Co., Rutherford, N. J. 

 The shipment consisted of fifty less than 

 half the number of plants ordered and 

 it made a solid carload. Another car is 

 expected in a few days. 



Sweet Peas aod ** Spinach.'^ 



One of E. C. Amling's growers, who 

 has been sending in sweet peas ever 

 since the first of the year, is approaching 

 the end of his crop, with the result that 

 the stems are too short to be salable.

He therefore cuts each flower with fif- 

 teen inches to eighteen inches of the vine 

 and bunches peas, "spinach" and all. 

 It may not sound very good, but the re- 

 tailers take all offerings and call for 

 more at prices which make the "spin- 

 ach" a decidedly profitable part of the 

 crop. They say that not only does the 

 vine suflSce for stem, but the green saves 

 much work. 



Kennicott's New Store. 



Kennicott Bros. Co. is now nicely in- 

 stalled in its new quarters at 48 and 50 

 Wabash avenue. The cut flower depart- 

 ment is along the front, the ofl5ce in the 

 middle of the store and the wire work 

 department at the rear. On first enter- 

 ing everyone is surprised at the size of 

 the store. The basement extends under 

 the street on two sides and there is con- 

 siderably more fioor space than in the old 

 quarters on Randolph street. The light 

 is excellent in the cut flower department, 

 the room is cool and excellently adapted 

 to the purpose.

tions raised by Wm. Eudd, at Mount 

 Greenwood, 111. These are a light pink, 

 No. 4604B, and the scarlet, No. 16802A. 

 Both varieties are •well known to the 

 trade in Chicago, for they have been 

 marketed in considerable quantity 

 through the E. F. Winterson Co. the 

 last two seasons. The scarlet was re- 

 cently certificated by the Chicago Flo- 

 rists' Club. Mr. Jensen states that both 

 varieties will be disseminated next season 

 jointly by Mr. Eudd and Jensen He De- 

 kema.
