Mention The Review when you write 



of the governilient 's recent land draw- 

 ings. In the Coeur d'Alene drawing his 

 number was 1,154 and it turned out to 

 be good for 160 acres. In the Flathead 

 reservation drawing his number was 609 

 and this, too^ brought him a quarter sec- 

 tion, two out of thrfee chances winning. 



The way the growers are preparing for 

 sweet pea crops indicates that there will 

 be no scarcity of these flowers from Jan- 

 uary to midsummer. 



Miss Martlia C. Gunterberg has re- 

 turned from her vacation in Minnesota 

 and is again on duty at her stand in the 

 Flower Growers' market. 

 ♦# Fred Meyer, foreman for the Geo. 

 Wittbold Co., was taken ill last week and 

 August 30 was operated on for appendi- 

 citis. Word from the hospital September 

 1 was that he was doing nicely. 



The Lincoln Supply Co., of which 

 George Reinberg is president, has almost 

 completed a warehouse 50x80 at 5501 

 North Lincoln street. Mr. Reinberg di- 

 vides his time between the greenhouse 

 and the warehouse. 



During the severe thunder storm Au- 

 gust 27 lightning struck the big 125-foot 

 chimney of ihe J. A. Budlong establish- 

 ment. No serious damage was done, but 

 a bite was taken out of the stack and 

 the bricks shot through the roof of the 

 shed as though fired from a cannon. The 

 men who had sought shelter in the boiler- 

 house made a hasty exit. Small pieces 

 of brick broke glass all over the place. 



Frank Ayers, who is in charge dur- 

 ing the absence of C. W. McKellar and 

 wife in Michigan, reports the demand for 

 cattleyas as ahead of the supply. 



F. B. Dickinson and wife are at Peli- 

 can Lake this week, where Mrs. E. H. 

 Hunt and Mrs. C. M. Dickinson are sum- 

 mering. 



Mrs. T. E. Waters stepped on a banana 

 peel at State and Adams streets August 

 28 and is in the Ravenswood hospital 

 recovering from a dislocated ankle. 



N. J. Wietor has charge of the cut 

 flower exhibits at the big Luxemburger 

 Schoebermess at the grove at 2313 Ridge 

 avenue, Rogers Park, September 5 and 6. 

 There will be quite a flower show there. 

 John C. Moninger Co. will exhibit green- 

 house materials and a 15,000-pound 

 boiler.

 have their place now completely replanted 

 and that the stock is in shape to give 

 them hopes of^an exceptionally good year. 



Kyle & Foerster are making their ar- 

 rangements for the opening of their new 

 commission house September 20. In- 

 stead of feeling aggrieved at increased 



competition, because of two new whole- 

 sale houses in the Atlas block, the other 

 wholesalers there welcome the two new 

 places, feeling that the quantity and va- 

 riety of stock to be oflPered this winter 

 under one roof will be to the mutual ad- 

 vantage of all. 



Charles Crum, formerly with H. 2s'. 

 Bruns and later with William Scofield,
