Come and See Our New Varieties of 



CHRYSANTHEMUM 



You will not be able to see them all in bloom at one time, 

 but any time you come, between now and Thanksgiving 

 Day, you will see several varieties that will interest you. 

 Some of the early ones are already cut out. Did you get 

 some of our Thanksgiving Pink last spring?

 Various Notes. 



Frank Voss, formerly with J. F. Wil- 

 cox & Sons, Council Bluffs, la., will open 

 a flower shop in the Flatiron building 

 about November 10.

 week were: August Lagarde and J. A. 

 Vandervoort, of Lagarde & Yandervoort, 

 Ollioules, France; G. Alkemade, of 

 Noordwyk, Holland; M. A. Fierstein, of 

 Vaughan's Seed Store, Chicago; Arthur 

 Euedling, of the Euedling Nurseries, 

 Minneapolis; Mr. Mills, of Jacksonville,

At tlie weekly bowling contest which 

 was held in Council Bluffs last week, F. 

 Swanson rolled high score, 192. After 

 the contest Fred Shaw served a luncheon 

 to the bowlers. The bowling crowd is 

 growing each week and a general feeling 

 of good sportsmanship exists, which af- 

 fords a splendid opportunity for the 

 florists to get together. 



Fire, of an unknown origin, destroyed 

 the Hess & Swoboda barn Wednesday, 

 October 19, and caused considerable 

 damage around the entire place. The 

 loss is fully covered by insurance. 



Charles Wolfe, formerly in charge of 

 the park greenhouses, has taken a posi- 

 tion with Hess & Swoboda as plant man. 

 Fritz Berlinghoff, for many years with 

 Hess & Swoboda, has been forced to 

 give up work on account of his bad 

 health. 



Chrysanthemum midge is again mak- 

 ing its appearance in Omaha and Coun- 

 cil Bluffs and in one range it has caused 

 the loss of a complete crop. T. E. E. 



NEWPORT, R. I. 



James Robertson, for many years 

 gardener on the summer estate of Mrs. 

 T. O. Richardson, on Ledge road, has 

 been appointed a member of the New- 

 port park commission by Mayor Ma- 

 honey. Mr. Robertson takes the place 

 of Patrick Costello, whose term expired 

 last July. 



Through their attorneys, George E. 

 Vernon & Co., furniture dealers, have 

 brought suit for $3,000 in the superior
