WHOLESALE GROWER OF CUT Fl OWERS

CHICAGO, ILL. 



, Mention The Review when you write 



but no mums, his stock of the latter 

 being late varieties, mostly Bonnaffon. 

 He plants his mums in the field in 

 spring, just as he does carnations, and 

 benches in July or August. 



F. W. Martin, 609 East Fortieth 

 street, says Boston ferns are having 

 quite a run at his place. He finds the 

 ferns more profitable to grow in his 

 limited space than cut flowers and man- 

 ages to produce enough to supply sev- 

 eral other south side retailers who have 

 no glass. 



A. Miller, of Henderson & Co., is at 

 Springfield this week acting as assistant 

 *to the superintendent of floriculture. 



M. Molenaar, 7112 Indiana avenue, 

 has completed his new greenhouse and 

 :will start planting within a short time. 

 He also conducts a truck garden busi- 

 ness, but says that there appears to be 

 so much more demand for flowers than 

 formerly that he cannot resist the 

 temptation to get. back into the trade 

 once more. - /. . •• 



The United Fertilizer Co. has moved 

 its factory and warehouse stock to Mor- 

 ton Grove. 



John Degnan says the wholesale de- 

 mand for bulbs indicates a shortage in 

 a number of varieties of Dutch atock. 

 The weather has been too fine for re- 

 tail sales. 



John Kruchten says he believes that 

 carnations will be short of the demand 

 until colder weather comes on. His 

 growers report an excellent crop of 

 second early mums for cutting within 

 a short time. 



C. L. Washburn, of Bassett & Wash- 

 burn, reports that the construction work 

 on the new range at Greggs Station 

 will be completed by October 12 and the 

 plant will then be put into full opera- 

 tion. Carnations already have been 

 planted in some of the houses. 



Miss Martha Meyer, daughter of 

 Jacob Meyer, of Morton Grove, left 

 for California October 9 with friends 

 from Evansten. 



A. C. Spencer, of Kyle & Foerster, is 

 a Cub fan and insists that luck is the 

 only chance for the Sox to win the city 

 series. 



O. Johnson says the Batavia Green- 

 house Co. will force 125,000 valley pips 

 for the season. 



President Kidwell, of the Chicago 

 Flower Growers' Association, says that 

 the run on roses last week was the 

 heaviest they have known for some 

 time and, although the cut was double 

 that of two weeks ago, there was no 

 surplus. 



The walk in front of the building 

 of L. Baumann & Co., on Chicago ave- 

 nue, was occupied October 4 by large 

 packing cases consigned to a dozen 

 florists. Mr. Gueldermann reports busi- 

 ness as decidedly rushing of late. 



C. E. Franke, superintendent of parks 

 at Oklahoma City, was a visitor last 

 week. 



W. J. Smyth has replaced the stock
