 out for a couple of days each week 

 through the summer. 



E. H. Hunt shipped a carload of wire 

 designs to a Texas point last week and, 

 according to Manager C. M. Dickinson, 

 it is the record shipment for this sea- 

 son. The greenhouse glazing depart- 

 ment has also experienced a heavy run 

 during the last few weeks, especially 

 on putty. 



Miss Hertha V, Tonner 

 severely sprained ankle at 

 of the employees of the A. 

 Co., at the home of Miss L 

 at Galewood July 4 and will be in bed 

 for a fortnight. Miss Alda Tonner has 

 taken over the commission business of 

 Miss Hertha, in anticipation of her 

 marriage in September. She has grow- 

 ers whose stock she has handled con- 

 tinuously for twelve years. 



There were over 100 Randall em- 

 ployees, or their families, at the picnic 

 July 4. The trip to Galewood was by 

 auto. Everybody had a fine time. 



Harry Garland, secretary and man- 

 ager of the Geo. M. Garland Co., is'

 from an eastern trip for L. Baumann &

 a few days. This firm is now repre- 

 sented in the south by Henry Ely, 

 whose headquarters are at Dallas, Tex. 



Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Washburn re- 

 turned from their honeymoon July 6, 

 after a trip to Buffalo on the steamer 

 Northland. E. B. Washburn, who was 

 to have started on a vacation on the 

 return of his father, is reported as 

 being seriously ill. The present condi- 

 tion has not fully developed and the* 

 attending doctors have not decided as 

 to whether it is more than a stomach 

 disorder or not. 



Fred Paszkeit, of J. A. Budlong's, is 

 singing, "It's a boy, it's a boy." 

 Twelve pounds, and it arrived July 9. 



G. M. Reburn, of A. Henderson &

H. Van Gelder, of Percy .Tones, made 

 a business trip to Lake Geneva and

 journey. Miss MacCormick, of the 

 oflBce force, is on her vacation this 

 week. 



J. P. Sinner, the elder of the partners 

 in the firm of Sinner Bros., is critically 

 ill as the result of a cut received last 

 week from a piece of broken glass. 

 Blood poison set in and he was taken 

 to the Alexian Brothers hospital July 



4, where his arm has three times been 

 operated on. He is likely to lose the 

 arm, if his life can be saved. Mr. 

 Sinner looks after the greenhouse end 

 of the business, the store end being in' 

 charge of the other brother, John, who 

 now is dividing his time about equally 

 between hospital, greenhouse and store. 



Frank Oechslin's houses are resplend- 

 ent in a new coat of white paint. 



A fine spring trade which more than 

 made amends for the severe winter is 

 reported by John Stamm, of Hutchin- 

 son, Kan., who was in Chicago last 

 week on his way to Wisconsin for a 

 month's fishing trip. He expects to 

 return in time to attend the S. A. F. 

 convention in August. 



P. L. McKee, of the J. C. Moninger 

 Co., spent "the glorious Fourth" with 

 his family at one of the lake resorts in 

 Indiana. He returned July 8. 



Another thirty days should see the 

 southern cypress districts practically 

 back to normal according to Mr. Mohr- 

 ing, of the Edw. Hines Lumber Co. 

 Some of the mills already have things 

 moving in good shape.

The Market. 



The cut flower market for the -jveek 

 ending July 6 was in a much crowded 

 condition. Everything was plentiful 

 and, as the retail business was dull, the 

 wholesalers had their troubles in trying 

 to dispose of their stock. Even with 

 extremely low prices, a lot of good 

 stock was sent to the dump pile.
