Springfield has failed to show any basis 

 for the false report. The supposition 

 that it might be the Chicago Flower 

 Growers ' Co., the corporation which for- 

 merly ran the Flower Growers' mar- 

 ket, is unfounded. Secretary Sinner 

 states that this corporation has no in- 

 tention of giving up its charter, al- 

 though at present conducting no busi- 

 ness except collection of outstanding 

 accounts. 



J. H. Burdett, secretary of the Hor- 

 ticultural Society of Chicago, is send- 

 ing out a letter urging growers and 

 others to prepare for the spring show. 

 The management realizes the diflSculty 

 of preparing for an exhibition at a 

 different date than the customary one 

 and feels that there is great danger of 

 a deficiency in exhibits unless un- 

 usual effort is made by those who are 

 interested in the success of floriculture 

 to insure a good display. The date of 

 the exhibition is March 11 to 17. 

 Those who have not received the pre- 

 mium list should address Mr. Burdett 

 at 162 West One Hundred and Fourth 

 place. 



One of the week's visitors has been 

 H. E. Rebelings, of Corinne, Utah, who 

 is a brother of Mrs. C. H. Fisk. Years 

 ago he ran the World's Fair Flower 

 Store at 804 Milwaukee avenue and his 

 greenhouses in Park Ridge were the 

 first in that now greenhouse center. 

 At Corinne Mr. Rebelings still is in 

 the flower business, but he deals ex- 

 clusively in funeral designs of arti- 

 ficial flowers, for the mining camps. 



C. M. Dickinson was confined to his 

 home by illness several days last week. 



The Chicago Carnation Co. has given 

 the name The Herald to the red car- 

 nation which won the first prize at St. 

 Louis and which was certificated sev- 

 eral times this season as No. 186. 



J. A. Budlong this week received 

 the final consignment of a crop of cos- 

 mos grown under glass. The variety

 superb, but Phil Schupp says the de-

Bassett & Washburn cut the last of 

 their chrysanthemums early last week. 



Fred Klingel is back at the books 

 at John Kruchten's after a fortnight's 

 term of jury service. He confirms the 

 report that jurymen have had a raise 

 in pay, for he got his little $3 for 

 each day's service. 



Hoerber Bros, have narrowed down 

 their list of carnations to five varie- 



ties: Beacon, Victory, White En- 

 chantress, White Perfection and En- 

 chantress. These varieties do splen- 

 didly with them, and by having only 

 a few kinds they can offer in quan- 

 tities. 



N. J. Wietor says that Wietor Bros, 

 have just begun to cut Yanoma chrys- 

 anthemum and that they still have to 

 cut Merry Christmas.
