Trade conditions have greatly im- 

 proved. Pleasant weather prevails 

 now and society is again active. Re- 

 ceptions are the order of the day and 

 night, and decorations are more lav- 

 ish than for several years past. 



The Queen of Autumn again holds 

 full sway, and other stock, except 

 Beauties, is relegated to the rear. 

 While we have no Mum show in the 

 Twin Cities the showing of Mums Is 

 the chief occupation in the stores 

 nowadays. Stock is very fine, and 

 judging from reports from other cit- 

 ies, earlier than in most places. 



L. L. May & Co., and Hahn & Olsen 

 both had very large decorations on 

 Thursday of last week. Mums, roses 

 and smilax were the principal flowers 

 used. 



Beauties are in good demand, with 

 the supply limited. The best long- 

 stemmed blooms are worth $5 at re- 

 tail. Other roses are in fair demand, 

 with the supply about equal to the 

 call. 



Carnations are coming in slowly, 

 with not enough good blooms to go 

 around. 



Violets are backward, owing to the 

 dark weather which has prevailed for 

 several weeks. 



Bouquet green, the first harbinger 

 of the Holidays, has made its appear- 

 ance. This article is quoted higher 

 than previous years. Wet weather, 

 followed by snow and freezing weath- 

 er in some sections -has curtailed the 

 crop. Low prices of late years have 

 also discouraged many from gather- 

 ing. 



Visitors since last report: .J. M. 

 Kimberlin, Lester Morse and Arnold 

 Ringier. 



C. C. Morse, who was reported seri- 

 ously ill in Minneapolis, is rapidly re- 

 covering. Mrs. Morse is with him.

The Cincinnati Florists' Society has 

 arranged for a series of exhibitions at 

 the Flower Market on the second Sat- 

 urday of each month from November 

 to May. Suitable prizes are offered 

 for seasonable plants and flowers and 

 some very interesting competitions 

 will undoubtedly result. A printed 

 schedule of prizes for the series has 

 been issued and copies may be had on 

 application to Henry Schwarz. Secy.,
