The Florists' Review 



June 12, 1013. 



The committee in charge will do every- 

 thing in its power to make this event 

 an enjoyable one for all and it is hoped 

 that the full membership of the society 

 will be present. E. E. 



CHICAOO NOTES. 



roontlnued from pace 21.] 

 home in Pasadena, where the elder 

 Washburn, his father, will visit on his 

 westerr vacation trip. O. P. Bassett 

 also lives in Pasadena. 



Sharp, Partridge & Co. now do their 

 hauling of greenhouse glass with a big, 

 bright red motor truck. 



The traveling force of L. Baumann 

 & Co. has taken the field and orders 

 have begun to come in thick and fast. 



F. J. Monahan, who has the southern 

 territory, left for Texas some time ago; 



G. Eeising, whose bungalow was re- 

 cently completed in Kogers Park, has 

 gone to his eastern territory, and L, 

 Biederman, western representative, is 

 on the job among his customers. 



Increasing business and recent addi- 

 tions to its line of supplies has made 

 it necessary for the American Import- 

 ing Co. to move to more commodious 

 quarters on the fifth floor of the build- 

 ing at 219 South Dearborn street. 



Peter Weiler, of the Superior Ma- 

 chine and Boiler Works, has moved to 

 his new home at Park Eidge, 111. 



The work of building the new range 

 recently put up by Cornelius Kellen, 

 at Niles Center, HI,, was done by the 

 Winandy Bros. 



The sale of five greenhouse boilers 

 in one week looks like pretty good busi- 

 ness and is to be credited to the Su- 

 perior Machine and Boiler Works. The 

 purchasers are Charles Hengesch, of 

 Eogers Park, who bought two boilers; 

 Cornelius Kellen, of Niles Center; 

 Prank Felke, of Gross Point, and Jo- 

 seph Wahl, of Chicago. 



William Kidwell has been gaining 

 some newspaper publicity over a small 

 bill of three years' standing which led 

 to a fistic encounter between one of 

 his employees and the party that owed 

 the money. Harold Ferrara, of the 

 store staff, encountered John K. Joice, 

 a youth of 16 years, in a poolroom, 

 when an argument arose and the bill 

 became a topic of conversation, leading 

 to a three-round battje in which Fred 

 Kreger, a clerk, took a hand by tossing 

 young Joice out the door. The father 

 of the boy swore out warrants for both 

 Ferrara and Kreger and for good mea- 

 sure took one out for William Kid- 

 well. The court discharged all three. 

 The flowers were charged to the elder 

 Joice 's account in 1910 by his son and 

 Mr. Kidwell is still trying to collect. 



While the present quarters on Wash- 

 ington street do not afford the room that 

 was available in the old place, Lub- 

 liner & Trinz have no complaint as to 

 the business done since the change, and 

 on busy days the store is crowded for 

 space. New and better quarters will 

 be opened in the fall. 



The entrance at 30 East Eandolph 

 street has been greatly improved by a 

 neat sign that announces that the Ba- 

 tavia Greenhouse Co., Weiland & Eisch 

 and Zech & Mann are located there. It 

 is one of those cooperative signs that 

 work nicely; while all three have sep- 

 arate quarters, the signs are uniform 

 and pleasing to the eye, which would 

 be impossible if each had an individual 

 sign. 



The sons of John F. Kidwell, the (v 

 president of the Chicago Flower Grow- 

 ers' Association, are considered experts
