MentloD The Review when yoa write 



for a fine range of glass to set his son 

 up in the growing business at Niles 

 Center. The Geo. M. Garland Co. type 

 of house will be built. 



Henry Van Gelder says the Percy 

 Jones business ran considerably ahead 

 of last year on account of a big increase 

 in the shipping done. 



The new firm of A. Henderson & Co. 

 will begin active operations January 2. 

 The members are A. Henderson and G. 

 M. Beburn. Headquarters will be with 

 Kyle & Foerster, 51 Wabash avenue, 

 until permanent arrangements can be 

 made. 



A. L. Bandall Co. says that the sup- 

 ply department is taking a rest for a 

 few days, but that rush orders came in 

 up to Christmas eve and the year has 

 given them a much larger volume of 

 sales than in 1909. 



O. J. Friedman got a quantity of 

 heather from the east for his plant 

 arrangements. His Congress Floral Co. 

 used as an annex one of the two stores 

 in the Congress hotel for which Mr. 

 Friedman has not yet found a tenant. 



W. F. Hoerber gave a Christmas din- 

 ner to the store employees December 

 26. He said he was more than pleased 

 with the Christmas business, and Harry 

 Manheim pointed out that White Kil- 

 larney, which was in specially heavy 

 crop with them, was the only item on 

 which they were long. 



John Kruchten, who has been for 

 some time receiving locally grown gar- 

 denias, says they sold excellently for 

 Christmas. 



South Water street and the railroads 

 got stuck on holly. 



Martha C. Gunterberg and Hertha V. 

 Tonner, Chicago's two women commis- 

 sionmen, both report their largest 

 Christmas. 



E. Wienhoeber Co. says the Christmas 

 trade started earlier than last year and 

 rolled up an excellent total, most of 

 the sales being on moderate priced 

 plant arrangements. They use more 

 pottery than any other store in town. 



Phil Schupp says that J. A. Budlong 

 handled in Christmas week pearly three 

 times as many flowers as in the same 

 week last year. 



Winterson's Seed Store was well sat- 

 isfied with the Christmas business in
