without the pump as much as twenty 

 pounds boiler pressure was required in 

 cold weather. The pump is run by a 

 small electric motor. Louis Wittbold 

 thinks highlv of the system. 



While W. 'E. Pierson, of A. N. Pier- 

 son, Inc., was in town last week he re- 

 ceived from "Wendland & Keimel what 

 is probably the record order for young 

 rose plants to be benched by the pur- 

 chaser. It included Killarney Queen, 

 Double White Killarney, Ward, Bul- 

 garie, Killarney and White Killarney 

 in quantity to jilant the new range of 

 ten big houses. Wendland & Keimel 

 think it cheaper to buy young stock 

 than to sacrifice the cut necessary to 

 do their own jn-opagating, 38,000 plants. 



Wintersou *s Seed Store took in a car- 

 load of Boston ferns one day this week. 



Martha C. Gunterberg for a week has 

 had so bad a cold she could scarcely 

 speak, but has stuck to business. 



Charlie Erne is laying plans for a 

 start in business for himself. 



The new employees' rooms that are 

 being partitioned off above the storage 

 room at the Edgebrook greenhouses are 

 rapidly nearing completion. Otto Witt- 



bold expects to put a billiard and pool 

 table in the center hall, to afford amuse- 

 ment for the men in the evenings. Cards 

 and card tables will also be provided. 



The Pulverized Manure Co. is putting 

 out Wizard Brand Pulverized Sheep 

 Manure and Wizard Brand Concen- 

 trated Plant Food in small packages 

 for the retail trade. Heretofore these 

 products have been sold only in quanti- 

 ties for the use of growers, but the 

 new style is to meet the demand for an 

 article for retailers to sell for use on 

 house plants. 



Herman Wendland, of Wendland & 

 Keimel, and W. E. Trimble, of Prince- 

 ton, 111., recently returned from a hunt- 

 ing trip with a fine bag of mallards 

 and other ducks. Phil Foley regretted 

 being in the east at the time, as he 

 had expected to be one of the party. 

 However, he had the pleasure of sam- 

 pling the fowls on his return and says 

 the birds and the cooking were both 

 excellent. 



Mrs. K. N. Cooper, manager of the 

 Auburndale Goldfish Co., has been con- 

 fined to the house with a severe attack 

 of bronchitis. 



P. Weiler, president of the Superior 

 Machine & Boiler Works, made an auto 

 trip to Wisconsin last week to close his 

 summer home. 



Both Henderson & Co. and Winter- 

 son's Seed Store report being well 

 cleaned up on the season's bulb impor- 

 tations. 



Weiland & Eisch say that every week 

 that passes adds to the number of Mel- 

 ody's friends. 



Hoerber Bros., Des Plaines, are tak- 

 ing all the wood they can get from their 

 new rose, Wilhelmina, for propagating 

 purposes. It is not generally known 

 that the rose is named for the mother 

 of the members of the firm. 



Among the Chicago visitors at the St. 

 Louis show this week are George 

 Asmus, C. W. Johnson, A.. T. Pyfer, 

 H. E. Philpott and Fred Lautenschlager, 

 the latter swinging around the circle 

 of the flower shows, going from St. 

 Louis to Cincinnati, Detroit and Mil- 

 waukee. 



Frank Johnson is back from a week 's 

 trip south for the A. L. Eandall Co. 

 The concern has just issued a new cata- 

 logue of seasonable supplies.
