N. J. Wietor says that although Law- 

 son has served his firm well, it un- 

 doubtedly has seen its best days. 

 Wietor Bros, will try Corner's Eosette 

 as a possible successor. 



While a good many are complaining 

 about their poor luck with bulbous 

 stock this season, John Fuhrman, 3164 

 North Clark street, asserts that this 

 year's crop is much superior to those 

 •of previous seasons. The hyacinths 

 he is showing are extremely fine and 

 other growers are wanting some of the 

 same brand of bulbs. 



It is said that the new store, Wei- 

 land's, has a lease for fourteen years 

 in the basement of the Venetian build- 

 ing. 



John Farmer, formerly with Koropp, 

 has joined the staff of Stollery Bros, 

 and has charge of the Wilson avenue 

 store. He reports business at the latter 

 place as being in fine shape and stead- 

 ily growing. 



A. Miller and G. Eeburn, of Hen- 

 derson & Co., are at home for show 

 week. 



Frank Kidwell, eldest son of John 

 F. Kidwell, was married Wednesday, 

 March 6. The bride was Miss Mabel 

 Dewey, of Downers Grove, 111. Frank 

 Kidwell is engaged in the growing busi- 

 ness with his father and is manager 

 of the plant at Thirty-ninth street and 

 Wentworth avenue. 



Holton & Hunkel Co. has been ship- 

 ping John Kruchten some excellent 

 valley this season.

 light attack of grip last week, although

he remained on the job. He pointed 

 out a nice lot of hydrangeas in bud 

 as being among the best of the Easter 

 stock, but it was noted that azaleas, 

 rhododendrons, etc., were also showing 

 color in good shape. 



Kyle & Foerster say they never have 

 handled such good sweet peas in the 

 first half of March or seen such good 

 stock sold 80 cheaply. They hope for 

 pleasant weather to start the ladies 

 wearing peas on the street. 



L. Baumann & Co. are being taxed 

 to their full capacity by the spring 



decorations in the State street depart- 

 ment stores. Mr. Gelderman says they 

 have "everything from Randolph to 

 Van Buren." 



C. W. McKellar reports a stiffening 

 in the orchid market in the east as 

 well as here. 



Poehlmann Bros. Co. is still adding 

 fixtures and facilities in the big new 

 store. About the only spot not now in 

 use is the president's private office. 

 He hangs his coat there. 



Florists are evidently coming to a
