«^ 



For Christmas we shall have a fine lot of Roses to offer, including the 

 much called for Richmonds, Beauties, Pink Killarney, White Killarney, 

 Bulgarie, Maryland, besides Mrs. Jardine and Aaron Ward. 



Our carnations are the best on this market, including such varieties as 

 Victory, Enchantress, Aristocrat, Afterglow, Winsor and White Perfection. 

 We anticipate a shortage in the Carnation line and as such we will endeavor 

 to fill carnation orders to the best of our ability. 



A large supply of our famous Blue Ribbon Valley, the leader of all 

 Chicago brands; also Sweet Peas, Single and Double Violets, Harrisii, Nar- 

 cissus, Stevia, Asparagus, Greens, and all other seasonable stock. 



We desire that you place your orders early. Don't wait until the last 

 minute only to learn that stock is well ordered up. 



Owing to lack of time during holidays, orders from new customers should 

 contain suitable references, for should your name not be rated in the agencies, 

 shipments will be sent C. O. D. 



Store open from 7.30 a. m. until 6 p. m., closing Sundaj's and holidays 

 at noon.

 AND GROWERS 



Mention The R«»Tlew when yon write. 



Apparently everything except carna- 

 tions is to be plentiful this Christmas. 

 Fine supplies of Beauties are promised 

 and there will be the usual r, jantity of 

 poinsettias, and they should all be 

 ready on time this year, for with most 

 growers they are earlier than usual. 

 Cattleyas will not be in large supply, 

 but of all the miscellaneous flowers 

 there will be more than ever, including 

 Tiolets, of which this market can get 

 any quantity wanted.

The Chicago Florists' Club held its

 sulting as follows: 



President — Guy French. 



Vice-president — A. Henderson. 



Secretary — Wilder Deamud. 



Treasurer — E. F. Winterson. 



Trustee — H. N. Brurs. 



A laugh was created when the secre 

 tary read letters from all three of the 



nominees for vice-president, each with- 

 drawing in favor of the others. 



Besignations of membership were re-

 and $639.39 on certificate of deposit; 

 total, $912.14. The secretary reported 

 receipts of dues amounting to $26'3 

 since last meeting. All outstanding 

 bills were ordered paid. 



OflBcial notice was received from the 

 Chrysanthemum Society of America, of 

 the acceptance of the club's invitation 

 to hold the annual convention and ex- 

 hibition in Chicago in November, 1913. 



A certificate of merit was given 

 Wendland & Keimel for an exhibit of 

 the new red rose, Milady, cut from 

 plants under trial at Elmhurst. 



Among the visitors present were Eich- 

 ard Vincent, Jr., White Marsh, Md., 

 president of the S. A. F.; E. G. Hill, 

 Richmond, Ind., and Raymond Kester, 

 farmerly with Pennock Bros., Philadel- 

 phia, and now in charge of the beauti-

 club repaired to a nearby moving pic-
