morning rush the place is like a bee 

 hive. 



The Chicago Carnation Co. moved 

 across the hall in the Atlas block to a 

 store fully double the size of the one 

 previously occupied. 



Altogether, the wholesale florists oc- 

 cupy more floor space this year than 

 ever in the past and in the aggregate 

 the facilities for handling business are 

 better than thejr ever were.

 congratulation. 



W. E. Lynch severed his connection 

 with the establishment of E. H. Hunt, 

 May 1, after ten years in charge of the 

 cut flower department there. Mr. 

 Lynch has an extremely large list of 

 acquaintances and friends who will re- 

 gret his departure from the market, but 

 they will be pleased that he has in 

 prospect the organization of a com-

 secured at Twenty-second street and 

 Harlem avenue and arrangements vir- 

 tually completed for the immediate 

 erection of 50,000 feet of glass.
