seems improbable that the flower show 

 will run a^unday this year. 



It is reported that C. A. Samuelson 

 has bought a handsome automobile, and 

 will replace his horse delivery outfits 

 with motor cars. Fleischman has a 

 new auto on the street, a duplicate of 

 his first car, except that the color of 

 this one is green. Gus Lange operates 

 an electric vehicle, while the others 

 are gasoline motors, and is thus far well 

 pleased. 



E. G. TJihlein's conservatories are 

 flpecially interesting because of the im- 

 ported hybrid orchids now flowering. 

 Another unique feature of the place is 

 the new concrete fence with twelve 

 large vases, the like of which is not to 

 be found elsewhere in the city. 



It is reported from Elmhurst that 

 Wendland & Keimel are planning to 

 put up fourteen additional houses, more 

 than doubling their present place. Mr. 

 Keimel admits that figures have been 

 obtained, but states that the addition 

 may not go up until a year hence; it 

 depends among other things on how the 

 market runs in the next few weeks. 



C. L. Washburn says the radius with- 

 in which Chicago flowers are sold cer- 

 tainly shows no contraction. Thirteen 

 pages of Bassett & Washburn's order 

 book were filled September 26, and 

 Winnipeg and Fort Worth, Detroit and 

 Omaha were entered there, with many 

 towns between. 



John P. Risch, of Weiland & Risch, 

 reports that lightning struck the 75- 

 foot brick stack of Charles Schwind at 

 Evanston on the morning of September 

 24, splitting it exactly in half. One- 

 half the stack was scattered over the 

 glass, which is devoted to vegetables, 

 while the other half was left standing, 

 to be pulled down by the fire depart- 

 ment. 



E. E. Pieser, of Kennicott Bros. Co., 

 tells some interesting tales of the great 

 crowds at Montreal during the Euchar- 

 istic congress. 



Robert Northam says George Rein- 

 berg's range is coming into heavy crop 

 again. 



George Perdikas now operates three 

 flower stores, and is handling large 

 quantities of stock.
