Various Notes. 



W. N, Hudd, president of the Horti- 

 cultural Society of Chicago, and E. J. 

 Haight, secretary of that organization, 

 have their shoulders to the wheel in 

 preparation for the spring show that 

 opens at the Art Institute April 1. 

 President Budd announces that Mr. 

 Shehan, of the Evening Post, has been 

 appointed press agent. In the midst of 

 the Easter work the trade has given 

 little attention to the show, but it is 

 expected that interest will develop with 

 a rush as soon as the Easter business 

 is over. The society is figuring on a 

 peony show in June, a gladiolus show 

 in August and an aster show later. 

 Handsome posters announcing the 

 spring show were distributed last week. 

 The Art lastitute people are counting 

 on the show attracting the largest 

 crowds in the history of the institu- 

 tion. 



Tim Matchen, who has charge of 

 Peter Eeinberg's sales, Emil Eeichling, 

 who is the greenhouse foreman, and a 

 number of other Reinberg employees 



visited the Bassett & Washburn estab- 

 lishment, at Gregg's Station and Hins- 

 dale, March 16. 



N. J. Wietor says that a big week's 

 business comes just in time, for Mon- 

 day morning's mail brought notice that 

 Wietor Bros, are assessed $4,100 as 

 their share of the cost of a sewer to be 

 laid in Devon avenue, on which the 

 greenhouses front. 



A. L. Eandall is preparing to leave 

 shortly after Easter on a European trip. 

 He plans to visit all the principal cen- 

 ters for florists' supplies. 



Al Fischer, the well-known bowler and 

 north side retailer, was arrested St. 

 Patrick's day for failure to show the li- 

 cense number on his delivery car. He 

 had thoughtlessly slung an extra tire 

 where it obscured the number. The 

 boys in the market think it an excel- 

 lent joke. 



Winterson's Seed Store has a unique 

 window display. It is the Barney lawn 

 sprinkling system working away full 

 force, each nozzle being covered by an 

 inverted goldfish globe. 



John Poehlmann spent the greater 

 part of St. Patrick's day going through 

 the greenhouses of his company at Mor- 

 ton Grove. 



Frank Johnson, sales manager for the 

 A. L. Eandall Co., is receiving congrat- 

 ulations over the arrival of a daughter, 

 March 14, at his home in Eogers Park. 



John T. Muir has opened his down- 

 town retail store, in the new building 

 at the southwest corner of Wabash 

 avenue and Monroe street. He occu- 

 pies a fine store on the Monroe street 

 side. The Williams' Flower Shop is in 

 the basement of the same building. 



George M. Garland reached home 

 March 18 from his winter's trip to 

 southern California. 



Schiller has sent out announcements 

 of the opening of the remodeled store 

 formerly occupied by Koropp, at 4509 

 Evanston avenue. 



George Fisher, who makes his head- 

 quarters with Kennicott Bros. Co., says 

 that an item of news will develop 

 shortly that will have to be published
