 tMi RMkdolph 



Storet 30 E. Randolph St., CHICAGO 



points out that when a retailer's cus- 

 tomer wants something really good 

 Beauties are chosen instead of mums. 



The E. Wienhoeber Co., on Elm street, 

 reports business excellent. The debu- 

 tantes now are occupying attention 

 and in the last few days there has been 

 heavy funeral work. In anticipation 

 of a good Christmas, a stock of acces- 

 sories much larger than usual has been 

 put in. 



William Timme is back at his old 

 position as a member of the shipping 

 staff of A. L. Vaughan & Co. 



Peter Reinberg returned November 

 15 from a shooting trip in Iowa and 

 started out on another Sunday night, 

 November 17. 



H. E. Philpott, of "Winnipeg, came 

 down from the St. Paul show and went 

 to Cleveland as bodyguard for A. T. 

 Pyfer, of the Chicago Carnation Co. 



John F. Kidwell, of the Chicago 

 Flower Growers' Association, is a 

 strong advocate of th» newly organized 

 credit association and says that every 

 firm in Chicago should accept the 

 chance to improve the old method of 

 handling credits. 



N. J. Wietor and Henry Wietor were 

 in court November 18 as witnesses for 

 one of their coal dealers. 



E. F. Kurowski, of the John C. Mon- 

 inger Co., and W. L. Kroeschell, of 

 Kroeschell Bros. Co., were at Cleve- 

 land last week to see the florists at the 

 show. 



Ed Armstrong no longer is with Ken- 

 nicott Bros. Co. 



E. C. Amling Co. states its opinion 

 that any shortening up in supplies at 

 the opening of this week was due only 

 to the efforts of the growers to hold 

 back a little for the extra demand ex- 

 pected early next week. 



The Fleischman Floral Co., on Jack- 

 son boulevard, is doing a record busi- 

 ness. During the summer the basement 

 space, where all work is done, was 

 practically doubled by taking in the 

 rooms under adjoining stores, and a 

 large new refrigerator was put in for 

 the storage of stock, cooled by an ice 

 machine that also handles the two dis- 

 play boxes in the store. George Wien- 

 hoeber says they are now in shape to 

 turn out $1,000 worth of work each 

 day without inconvenience; also that 

 the advertising appropriation this sea- 

 son has been considerably increased. 



Winterson's Seed Store reports the 

 arrival of the second shipment of aura- 

 tum, Melpomene and iris from Japan, 

 November 18.
