 blooms being especially good. 



E. C. Amling says that Fred Weber's 

 annual summer crop of Beauties is just 

 coming on. For three years in succession 

 Mr. Weber has had splendid success with 

 Beauties timed for this date. 



The Lake Forest Horticultural Society 

 will have its first annual exhibition July 

 13. The exhibits will be by the local 

 private gardeners. 



The A. L. Eandall Co. says the extent 

 of the demand for commencement baskets 

 is a surprise in the supply department. 

 It exceeds their most sanguine expecta- 

 tions and next year they purpose to do 

 some big business in this line. 



Percy Jones says he received his first 

 local peonies on Monday. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. reports an excel- 

 lent demand for special roses. They can- 

 not keep up with the call for the best 

 grade of Killarney, which has led them 

 to largely increase their planting for next 

 year. Chatenay with stems three or four 

 feet' long also sells well and the best 

 grade of Richmond continues in good re- 

 quest in spite of a largely stocked rose 

 market. 



The J. A. Budlong estate has finished 

 planting chrysanthemums. They are cut- 

 ting some fines roses. Business is stead- 

 ily increasing and they would like to 

 double their store space to provide for fu- 

 ture development. 



Wietor Bros, report business so brisk 

 and collections so good that they have 

 had to buy a new and larger safe. 



Peter Reinberg is cutting the heaviest 

 crop of roses in the history of the estab- 

 lishment. 



C. M. McKellar says it is especially 

 fitting that June is not only the season 

 of blushing brides, but of the heaviest 

 crop of cattleyas. The two are combin- 

 ing excellently this month. 



Zech & Mann are receiving their an- 

 nual spring crop of Easter lilies. 



John Kruchten is rearranging his 

 place preparatory to handling a big crop 

 of ponies. 



An interesting note on A. Lange's 

 advertising in the daily papers will be 

 found on another page of this issue. 



Louis Gresenz, of Bassett & Wash- 

 bum's, has sold his flat building on 

 Southport avenue and is looking for a 

 place to spend tire money. 



Otto Goerisch suggests the formation 

 of a florists' baseball league, teams to

Henry Payne reports having sold 25,- 

 000 tomato plants at wholesale this year. 

 He will largely increase his output in this 

 line next year. 



Visitors. 



Visitors have been quite numerous this 

 week. Among those in town have been 

 W. F. Kasting, Buffalo; Fred Berter- 

 man, Indianapolis; L. Wasserman, Mus- 

 kegon, Mich., buying building material 

 for some new houses; A. O. Wild, of C. 

 & M. Wild, Sarcoxie, Mo., on his way to 



o the 

 rade. 



We append a price list which is, 

 in our best judgment, what prices 

 will be until you hear from us 

 again. 



If you read the trade papers 

 you will see the price lists are 

 neariy all alike. This is because 

 we must have our "copy" ready 

 by Tuesday, and Monday's selling 

 price is a basis for the coming 

 week's trade papers. 



Be this as it may, we send out 

 a price list, but we always bill at 

 Chicago selling price at time of 

 shipment. 



Always keep in mind that we 

 are your agents and while we re- 

 ceive a great quantity of stock, 

 all is not of shipping grade, and 

 if we are out we will get it for you 

 if it is to be had in Chicago.
