vardia this year. In the early days this 

 was a Budlong specialty. 



Peter Eeinberg has made wonderful 

 progress in repairing the damage done 

 by the storm of September 18. Within 

 a week all the bars and glass had been 

 restored in the section north of Sum- 

 raerdale avenue and before the end of 

 the present week the roof of the sec- 

 tion to the south will be made as good 

 as new. Attention is called that Mr. 

 Beinberg was incorrectly quoted in last 

 week 's Review, inasmuch as he has used 

 cedar gutters in recent construction at 

 his place called the farm. 



C. A. Samuelson's delivery car is out 

 with a new body, rebuilt during the 

 summer. In its first season the car did 

 about 6,000 miles at a cost of about 

 $1,000. It is not thought to be econom- 

 ical, but effective. A horse outfit still 

 is in use, but its sale is now being con- 

 sidered, to make a place for another 

 and lighter automobile. 



E. C. Amling Co. reports one of its 

 growers at Maywood is now cutting 

 from his Beauties for the fourteenth 

 month since giving them a rest. 



John W. Madden, formerly with the 

 Randolph & McClements Co., Pitts- 

 burgh, is the new designer with the E. 

 Wienhoeber Co. 



The many friends of A. C. Spencer 

 will have the pleasure Monday morn- 

 ing, October 2, of welcoming him back 



to the north side of Randolph street, 

 for an arrangement has been made by 

 which Mr. Spencer wUl join the forces 

 of Kyle & Foerster on that day. 



The Chicago Flower Growers' Asso- 

 ciation will have a stockholders' meet- 

 ing October 2, for the purpose of vot- 

 ing on the proposition to increase the 

 number of directors from seven to 

 eight. 



The Geo. Wittbold Co. had large deco- 

 rations for Stevens and Carson-Pirie 

 this week. 



C. L. Washburn states that a meeting 

 has been called of the executive com- 

 mittee of the Illinois State Florists' 

 Association, of which he is president, 

 to be held in the Dome building at the 

 State Fair, Springfield, October 3, at 2 

 p. m. The principal business will be 

 the selection of a place for the next 

 meeting. Invitations have been re- 

 ceived from Peoria and Joliet. 



Frank Johnson has returned from a 

 successful western trip for the A. L. 

 Randall Co. He points with special 

 pride to the Smith's Advance chrysan- 

 themums now coming in. They think 

 highly of this variety. 



N. J. Wietor has placed an order for 

 a 1912 Haynes touring car. The 2:10 

 trotter is for sale. 



D. K. McMillan, field assistant to the 

 state entomologist, is in Chicago study- 

 ing the cattleya fly.
