bought the retail store of the Chicago 

 Carnatiou Co., Joliet, the deal with the 

 Schiller estate having fallen through. 



Miss Corbett, who has charge of the 

 books at Peter Keinberg's, has the sym- 

 pathy of everyone who has heard of the 

 death of her father last week. 



Bassett & Washburn report they are 

 getting from 4 cents to 5 cents for the 

 O. P. Bassett carnation. They cannot 

 supply the demand. 



Peter Keinberg and John Schillo took 

 a party of friends to Buffalo Grove in 

 their automobiles September 29. Among 

 those who went were Adam Zender, N. J. 

 "Wietor, John Muno, Henry Wietor, 

 Leonard Kill and Ed Schillo. 



Tim Beaver is no longer with J. L. 



Kaske. 



E. F. Winterson Co. received a car of 

 Dutch bulbs last week and expects an- 

 other this week. Buyers began to take 

 hold the minute the samples were shown 

 in the store. 



E. C. Amling says he counts on a good 

 violet season, the first receipts being of 

 better quality than usual and the buyers 

 more eager to take hold than they ordi- 

 narily are in September. The Chicago 

 market has now become one of much im- 

 portance to the Khinebeck center of pro- 

 duction.

 city store force, has been on the sick 

 list for a week.

 now getting roses with fair length of 

 stem. 



The esteemed Tribune has just dis- 

 covered that there is trouble over the 

 conservatory at Garfield park and in its 

 issue of September 27 devotes a column 

 of the front page to exploiting the sub- 

 ject. Mr. Eckhart is quoted as blaming 

 Jens Jensen for the conditions, and Mr. 

 Jensen is quoted as saying the board 

 knew all the time what was going on and 

 that he gave warning against employing 

 anyone other than an experienced green- 

 house builder on so important a piece of 

 work. Kepairs have at length been be- 

 gun. 



Kroeschell Bros Co. states that the 

 season is one of the busiest it has had in 

 many years. Not only is boiler business

George Cohen, of Wertheimer Bros., 

 New York, was in town this week on his 

 way home from a trip through the south 

 and west, where he found business ex- 

 cellent. Another visitor was M. Crozer, 

 of Cedar Bapids, la., who reports that
