has been nursing a bad case of blood 

 poison that has aflfected two fingers on 

 his right hand. The infection was the 

 result of the Easter rush, when Mr. 

 Klingel pitched in to help out in the 

 packing of roses. 



John F. Kidwell, president of the 

 iChicago Flower Growers ' Association, 

 says the damage done a week ago to 

 the Wellworth Farm greenhouses was 

 confined to the three houses that were 

 wrecked. Quick repairs made it pos- 

 sible to save the stock in the other 

 houses, while the stock of Killarneys 

 in the three demolished houses was 

 partly saved by lifting the plants and 

 putting them in the undamaged range. 



L. Baumann & Co. report a record- 

 breaking business for Easter, which has 

 kept the entire staff working nights for 

 weeks. May 1 they will take over the 

 building on the east of its present 

 quarters, purchased some time ago, 

 making a total of 34,000 square feet 

 devoted to the manufacturing of arti- 

 ficial flowers, etc. F. H. Gelderman 

 says that he is holding orders for Day- 

 ton, Columbus, Zanesville, Cincinnati 

 and Marietta, 0., until he hears from 

 his customers in the flooded districts. 



The Geo. Wittbold establishment suf- 

 fered comparatively small loss in the 

 storm March 23. About ten boxes of 

 glass had to be replaced. At the 

 end of one house a hole was made 

 in the roof as if a giant hand had 

 reached down and torn a section out. 



W. H. Pontius, vice-president and 

 secretary of the Superior Machine and 

 Boiler Works, is again at his desk 

 after a short illness. 



The American Importing Co. has 

 opened a branch office in Los Angeles, 

 Cal., and will open a New York branch 

 about April 15. 



B. Abrahamson, florist at 915 Blue 

 Island avenue, will move into the new 

 building, erected by him next to his 

 present quarters, about the middle of 

 April. 



Fred Munzing, who has been with 

 Frank Oechslin for the last seven 

 years, has bought the North Edgewater 

 Floral Co. He says he will continue 

 the business under the same name, 

 wholesale and retail. 



Hoerber Bros, were able to save all 

 of the stock with the exception of 

 the two houses that were wrecked by 

 last week 's storm. Over a car of 

 glass was needed to repair the damage 

 done by the storm. From the quantity 

 of stock coming in at the store one

would hardly suppose they were in 

 danger of losing their stock. 



Local friends of A. L. Vaughan re- 

 gret that he is suffering from an at- 

 tack of rheumatism and hope that he 

 will soon be able to resume his duties. .
