from the lake to Ravenswood. Among 

 them are eight florists. These are com- 

 mercial exhibits. In the center space 

 will be flowers and plants contributed 

 by various growers and arranged by 

 retailers. Both the Chicago Florists' 

 Club and the Commercial Flower Grow- 

 ers of Chicago have endorsed the event 

 and asked their members to support it. 

 The north side organizations, commer- 

 cial, church and social, are strongly ad- 

 vertising and supporting the show, 

 which is looked forward to as an effec- 

 tive way of opening the flower season 

 by the uptown Chicago florists. 



"It Pays to Advertise." 



In The Review of September 22 and 

 29 Martin Amling offered his May wood 

 greenhouses for sale and it was reported 

 it was his intention, when a purchaser 

 was found, to join his brother at Pana. 

 In less than a fortnight after the first 

 ad appeared Mr. Amling had concluded 

 a sale to William Spandikow and his 

 two sons, who now are running the place. 

 The purchase price is said to have been 

 $28,000. The greenhouses cover 35,000 

 feet and are in Butterfly and Columbia. 

 The cut is sold by Joseph Foerster Co.
