In large supply and quality as good as the best. Bear in mind that we are still headquarters for 

 the old favorites, Bride and Maid. The crop is not heavy at present, but there will be a big cut in from 

 3 to 4 weeks, which will last during the season. 



Call on us for Beauties, Chrysanthemums, Carnations, L|lies, Bronze Galax 



or anything else you need. There is no one better able to supply you.

winter occupation of dispensing violets. 

 He says the outlook for business seems 

 good, believing that the growth of the 

 cut flower business has been so rapid 

 and so steady that it hardly can fall 

 back this year. He thinks the florists' 

 supply business is nowhere near so fully 

 developed as the cut flower business. 



C. M. Dickinson is having a serious 

 time with erysipelas. 



L. Hoechener has bought the F. C. 

 Struvy store at 1515 Clybourn avenue, 

 taking possession October 12. He has 

 leased the building, which has been 

 used for a flower store, he says, for 

 thirty years. Mr. Hoechener is pro- 

 prietor of the Avenue Floral Co., on 

 Grand avenue. He has been employed 

 by Peter Beinberg and will remain 

 there for a time, but intends as soon 

 as possible to devote his entire time 

 to the new venture. 



Gus AUes, who is N. J. Wietor 's right 

 hand man in the store, went through 

 :the greenhouses of Wietor Bros., Oc- 

 tober 8, and says he never saw the place 

 look as well as now. 

 ^ As an instance of what the reduction 

 in express rates means to growers, 

 Hoerber Bros, say their express bill 

 has averaged about $3.50 per day, which 

 is c»t twenty per cent, or a saving of 

 70 cents for every day in the year, or 

 over $250. 



John Zech says Zech & Mann have 

 no reason to compl^^ of business — it 

 is running ah«ad of wiy previous year. 



The E. Wiehho^r Co. is preparing 

 to issue invitations to a big opening 

 early in November. 



An account of the Florists ' Club 's sil- 

 ver jubilee and a list of the convention 

 committees will be found in another 

 column of this issue. 



T. E. Waters found the St. Leuis 

 delegation en route to Chicago when, 

 he got on the train at Springfield, Oc- 

 tober 5. They wanted to go to Poehl- 

 mannville, so he took the party to Mor- 

 ton Grove, where they spent the day. 



Hans Yepsen has gone to Morris, III., 

 to take charge of the range of the 

 Morris Floral Co., the proprietor of 

 which, Mr. Krohn, has been ill for 

 three months.

 Flower GroweVs' Association, was con-
