Trade lias been fairly good during the 

 past month. Flowers are now more 

 plentiful, of better quality and bring a 

 little better price. 



The Nebraska Florists' Society held 

 its annual meeting Sept. 26. The old 

 oilieers were reelected as follows: J. J. 

 Hess, president; S. R. Faulkner, vice 

 president ; L. Henderson, secretary ; S. 

 B. Stewart, treasurer; G. Swoboda, Wm. 

 Ellsworth and G. Sorenson, trustees. 



Douglas County held its annual fair 

 at Omaha, Sept. 14 to 21. Paul Floth, 

 L. Henderson, E. C. Erfling and Paul 

 Paulson made fine plant exhibits. Paul 

 Floth carried away most of the first 

 premiums for plants; L. Henderson, the 

 seconds for plants, and all the firsts for 

 cut flowers and floral designs. 



We had a heavy frost Sept. IS which 

 killed most of the outdoor stock. 



There were not very many flowers sent 

 from here to President McKinley's fun- 

 eral on account of the distance, but there 

 were many fine floral decorations seen in 

 windows, the theaters, and in the 

 churches at the memorial services. 



Last Thursday night Omaha was vis- 

 ited by a heavy hail storm, which did 

 some damage to the greenhouses of 

 Faulkner, P. Floth, Arnold and some 

 others. 



The boys are still interested in bowl- 

 ing with a spirit to challenge Chicago 

 or Milwaukee for a match game some 

 time in the future. Following are the 

 scores made at the alleys last Thursday 

 evening:
