Meption The Review wben you writp 



florists' insurance man, has written em- 

 ployers' liability insurance for quite a 

 number of the large growers. 



Frank Johnson returned September 

 9 from a trip to Denver for the A. L. 

 Eandall Co. 



G. H. Pieser says September business 

 must be running a good bit ahead of 

 other years, because of the material in- 

 crease in the amount of stock coming 



in. 



Vaughan & Sperry have installed a 

 second telephone. The new instrument 

 is on the selling floor and is reached by 

 the old number, Central 2571. The old 

 instrument, in a booth, has the number 

 2572 and there now is an extension into 

 the office. The telephone company now 

 arranges such double-phone equipments 

 quite handily by putting a ring around 

 the two numbers on the switchboard at 

 Central; all incoming calls are giyen 

 the smaller number, unless it is btJsy, 

 in which case the other line is given 

 without the party calling having to ask 

 for it. 



The remodeling of the Flower Grow- 

 ers' Market building has progressed to 

 the point where the old entrance is 

 abandoned and admission is now had 

 by new elevators and stairway on the 

 Kandolph street side. 



Tim Matchen says growing conditions 

 seem to have just suited Richmond, 

 Peter Reinberg's cut having increased 

 several fold in the last few days. "White 

 Killarney also has made rapid prog- 

 ress.

September 9. One of the calls made 

 was at the home of John Poehlmann. 



John Zech says that one of the grow- 

 ers of Zech & Mann has scored a notable 

 success growing the Enchantress va- 

 rieties of carnations continuously under 

 glass during the summer. He is now 

 cutting stock with stems two or three 

 times as long as the recently benched 

 plants are giving. 



Henry Van Gelder says the Percy 

 Jones business is running double what 

 it did in the first half of September 

 last year. 



Ben O'Connor is the latest addition 

 to the force of Kyle & Foerster. 



John Kruchten recently was given a 

 lot by his father, Nick Kruchten, well 

 known as a carnation grower in Bow- 



manville, and has had plans drawn for 

 a handsome residence, but has concluded 

 to postpone building until spring. 



0. W. Frese, of Poehlmann Bros. Co., 

 says the Chicago shipping radius is 

 steadily expanding; the firm has stand- 

 ing orders for regular shipments going 

 to western Montana. 



Hoerber Bros, have their new 200 

 horsepower boiler bricked in and the 

 season's building operations completed. 

 Their heating plant now consists of a 

 battery of 330 horsepower. 



It is reported that a viaduct to Grant 

 park, over the I. C. tracks at Monroe 

 street, is shortly to be built and L. E. 

 Bohannon thinks it will add quite a 

 little to his transient trade.
