Club Meeting. 



The club meeting held October 16 was 

 rather slimly attended, but the busin'ess 

 transacted was none the less. The finance 

 committee reported that it would, no 

 doubt, raise the required amount asked 

 for by the club. Mr. Graham, president 

 of the club, said that work such as en- 

 closing the pavilion, heating, tables, etc., 

 would begin at once. 



The Market. 



There are flowers enough to meet the 

 demand with the exception of carnations, 

 which are yet a little scarce. A few of 

 the newer varieties have shown up, and 

 just now Lawson shows the best, though 

 Alarquis comes along faster but hasn't 

 the size. What few Crockers we have 

 seen look very fine; its color is hard to 

 beat. 



In roses the market is overstocked on 

 teas, perhaps due to the mums. Good 

 Liberties and Beauties, however, find 

 ready sale. 



The mum season has fairly started, 

 and some good Robinsons, Whilldins and 

 Glory of Pacific may be seen. A look 

 around the greenhouses shows some fine 

 varieties for later on. 



A ball given by one of the fashionable 

 set called for a good-sized decoration 

 one day last week, palms and wild smilax 

 being used quite freely. ROCKY. 



PEORIA, ILL. 



In the industrial parade during the 

 latter part of the Corn Carnival, Murray 

 and Cole Bros, were represented by very 

 well decorated wagons. Cole Bros, using 

 som'e extra fine cycads and Boston ferns, 

 and Murray some tastefully arranged 

 floral pieces, which were greatly ad- 

 mired. 



There is a slight increase in trade with 

 a fair supply of good roses, carnations 

 and violets. Mums are making their ap- 

 pearance. Murray has a very fine house 

 of American Beauties in crop. Kuhl is 

 cutting some very good Golden Gate 

 roses. His ferns are selling fast.

MORE people would use books if they knew their value. Any florist 

 who will use our JSJ Florists' Manual in the following way will get 

 from Sio to Sioo a year out of it. Spend at least ten minutes every week 

 in getting acquainted with the valuable suggestions in it and use it as a 

 diary of your own work, and a scrap-book of particularly good things you 

 may read elsewhere and want to save for reference. This is "expanding" 

 a book, and many who have tried the plan with other books have found it 

 very profitable. This may be done cither on the margins or by inserting 

 blank leaves where needed. Sent prepaid for $5.00.
