During the busy day many of those 

 who do not often get to Morton Grove 

 found time to get over to the big estab- 

 lishment of the Poehlmann Bros. Co., 

 where preparations for the approaching 

 season were found to be well advanced 

 and everything in the fine shape charac- 

 teristic with this firm. 



Variout Notes. 



William Amling, of Milwaukee, has 

 purchased the CoUatz place at Maywood 

 and will take possession August 1, when 

 Mr. Collatz assumes charge of the grow- 

 ing end of the business of the recently 

 organized Albert Amling Co. 



Peter Kisch is on duty this week at 

 the store of Weiland & Kisch, while 

 John P. Eisch and H. W. Rogers are 

 rusticating in Wisconsin. At the green- 



houses in Evanston the benching of car- 

 nations from the field began July ■" 22. 

 Mr. Risch says the stock is as fine as 

 could be desired. Recent good gro^/ving 

 weather has helped the field stock with 

 all the carnation growers and they now 

 are nearly, if not quite, abreast of the 

 season. 



H. R. Hughes, who has been making 

 something of a study of advertising the 

 last few months, will make a trial of 

 space in the Tribune, beginning in the 

 autumn. 



Wietor Bros., although still cutting 

 considerable quantities of carnations, are 

 beginning to market a large crop of as- 

 ters. 



All of the automobile salesmen in 

 town are vying with each other in the 

 effort to sell Peter Reinberg a machine.
