cially the Beauties. The heat of the 

 room was hard on the stock, but the 

 flowers remained presentable for five 

 days. 



John Zech, of Zech & Mann, who has 

 been spending the last week or so at a 

 Milwaukee sanitarium, is reported as 

 being greatly benefited by the rest 

 from business cares and will be back 

 at work in a few days. 



When met in the store of the E. C. 

 Amling Co., March 19, H. C. Wendland 

 was describing the up-to-dateness of 

 the Cadillac touring car he had just 

 ordered. Mr. Wendland 's partner 

 drives an Overland. Mr. Amling 's car 

 is a Silent Knight. 



A. Henderson & Co. say that "Big 

 Pete" Sroczynski has an exceptionally 

 fine lot of lilies this season. You can 

 guess who supplied most of the bulbs. 



O. Johnson says that spring arrived 

 at Batavia this week and building 

 operations will soon be under way. 



Did you know that Mr. Pyfer's first 

 name is Aaron, same as Ward, the 

 popular rose! 



According to the loop retailers, the 

 demand for St. Patrick's day green 

 carnations was not so brisk as it should 

 have been. Saturday was considered 

 too early and on Sunday there was no 

 great demand. 



H. G. Young says business at his 

 store at 10 North Western avenue has 

 far exceeded his expectations. 



The packing shed was a busy place 

 at the Edgebrook greenhouses March 

 18, and Otto Wittbold says the ship- 

 ments are increasing daily, particu- 

 larly in Easter and bedding plants. 

 Nearly all the bulbous stock is now in 

 the houses and the hotbeds are being

 of the work was delayed a month later 

 than last year, owing to the extremely 

 cold weather. 



Easter basket orders are heavy with 

 the Baedlein Basket Co., and Mr. 

 Baedlein says business shows a big in- 

 crease over last year. 



The Fleischman Floral Co. came out 

 with another full-page advertisement 

 in the leading morning daily March 18, 

 but though approximately the pame 

 prices as before were quoted, it created 

 not even a ripple in trade circles — even 

 the smallest buyer can sell at those 

 rates now. 



A. F. Longren and Cliflford Pruner, 

 of E. H. Hunt's selling force, left Chi- 

 cago on business trips the earlier part 

 of this week. 



Phil Schupp, manager of the J. A. 

 Budlong store, reports a rather busy 

 time last week with out-of-town visitors 

 to the spring flower show. He enter-

 time to callers. 



John F. Kidwell, of the Chicago 

 Flower Growers' Association, finds his 

 duties as manager rapidly increasing 

 as the Easter rush nears. Last week 

 afforded him a busy time and he has 

 his decks cleared for action in anticipa- 

 tion of things to come during the next 

 two weeks or so. 



Among those who took additional 

 exercise last week was A. L. Yaughan. 

 It snowed and his residence is located 

 in Oak Park. Snowdrifts! Sure.
