 Keimel said they have only six plants 

 on trial, but have thus far cut thirteen 

 blooms per plant, only nine of the 

 flowers having under 14-inch stems. The 

 plants are now full of buds. 



C. G. Anderson, who has charge of 

 the plant department of Poehlmann 

 Bros. Co., says orders for Christmas 

 stock began to come in heavily last 

 week and shipping is now progressing 

 rapidly. Chicago delivery is made by 

 the autos of the Niles Center express, 

 but a truck probably will soon be pur- 

 chased. 



Wietor Bros, largely increased their 

 planting of carnation Bonfire this sea- 

 son. It is now in good crop and the 

 color makes Victory seem dull by con- 

 trast. 



W. J. LaGrotta reports excellent busi- 

 ness at 1103 East Fifty-third street, the 

 old McAdams stand. Mr. LaGrotta 

 was with Andrew McAdams for twenty- 



two years and succeeded to the busi- 

 ness October 1, buying out his employer. 

 It is understood that Andrew McAdams 

 leaves shortly to spend the winter at 

 Melbourne, Fla. Miss Mae McAdams is 

 studying landscape gardening at the 

 University of Illinois. 



Michael Winandy and his sons have 

 purchased five houses at Kosehill from 

 Otto Hedrick and will rebuild them for 

 vegetable growing. The work of pull- 

 ing down the old houses will begin at 

 once and by spring it is hoped that the 

 new ones, totaling about 45,000 square 

 feet of glass, will be ready for planting. 

 The houses will be under the direction 

 of Mi^chael Winandy, who will retire 

 from the active construction work of 

 the firm of the M. Winandy Co., after 

 thirty-five years of work in that line. 

 The patents and control of the con- 

 struction business are to be given over 

 to the sons, who will carry it on as 

 before.
