says advices have been received that 

 forest fires in Alabama destroyed much 

 of the stock in the woods. 



Kennicott Bros. Co. received its first 

 peonies this year from Carbondale, III., 

 April 18. E. E. Pieser says it is the 

 earliest date of arrival for peonies in 

 his experience. Usually the first Old 

 Ked come early in May. 



Albert T. Hey, Maywood, is sending 

 Percy Jones some superb gladioli. 



The remodeling of the Flower Grow- 

 ers' Market building has begun. The 

 comer of the market to be used by the 

 ground floor tenants has been partitioned 

 off. 



Frank Ay era has completed two weeks ' 

 service on jury in the criminal court. 



Mrs. Kill, mother of Leonard Kill, 

 died April 7, the funeral being held 

 April 9 and largely attended, for she 

 was an estimable woman and had many 

 friends. 



Kyle & Foerster have found their work 

 too heavy for one bookkeeper. Hans 

 Rowoldt is the latest addition to the 

 staff. 



Tim Matchen says he finds no fault 

 with the volume of business, but would 

 be glad to see prices stiffen up. 



Wietor Bros, have torn down eleven 

 greenhouses, set the posts and are now 

 putting up the gutters, using wood, for 

 rebuilding. N. J. Wietor says it is sur- 

 prising the number of people who want 

 to buy rose plants from the benches. 



Winterson's Seed Store has a large 

 section of Holland on the front side- 

 walk, another section in the rear area, 

 and all the basement space they can get. 

 It is impossible to house the stock at 

 night, so a •watchman is employed to 

 stand guard over the sidewalk display, 



Harry Manheim says Hoerber Bros, 

 are making good progress with the erec- 

 tion of their eleven new greenhouses. 



Andrew McAdams has not in years 

 enjoyed better health than now. His 

 honeymoon trip to the Pacific coast did 

 him a world of good. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. has had a num- 

 ber of racks made just the size for the 

 packing of the flattened out, empty, cor- 

 rugated pasteboard boxes, so that they 

 can be handled without injury. These 

 racks are filled and stacked up in the 

 store until enough have accumulated to

make it worth while to send a team from 

 Morton Grove for them. By using the 

 light corrugated boxes and returning the 

 empties with their own teams, express 

 has been reduced to reasonable propor- 

 tions. 



Phil Schupp says ten houses of roses 

 have been thrown out at the Budlong 



establishment, five or six being already 

 replanted. A new typewriter is the lat- 

 est addition to the office equipment and 

 Miss Wolf is studying stenography.
