Various Items. 



B. P. Critehell had the decoration for 

 the banquet held in the Chamber of Com- 

 merce buikling, to celebrate the 100th 

 anniversary of Cincinnati as a city. 

 There were 500 persons present. 



Prince Henry's twenty-minutes' stay in 

 this city did not tend to make a scarcity 

 in the visible supply of tioral stock. 

 But he was given quite a reception. 



Kobt. D. Ruttle, Covington, Ky., was 

 very busy during the past week. 



Chas. .Jones has placed a large plate 

 glass window in his Fourth street store, 

 replacing the old-style one. 



Wm. JIurphy is showing a new csr- 

 nation. It is a white seedling, parentage 

 Bridesmaid find McGowan. He does not 

 claim honors as a fancy for it, but says 

 it is a producer. It has a long stiff 

 stem, does not seem inclined to burst. 

 A flower that will measure 2Vi> to "< 

 inches, and from present outlook it is 

 O. K. for a good commercial flower. 



Harry Edwards is harti at work fixing 

 up his Vine street store. A new ice 

 box is being built and in a short time 

 he will have a very attraciive place. 



Visitors were: E. J. Fancourt, rep- 

 resting Samuel S. Pennock. Philadelphia, 

 Pa.; Mr. Weltz, Wilmington, O.; C. 

 Ford, New York. 



A meeting of the Florists' Society was 

 held Saturday night at its club rooms. 

 There were discussions of various ques- 

 tions in reference to the future actions 

 of the societ.y but nothing of importance 

 was acted upon. C. J. Ohmer. 



We have received a copy of Class 

 Bulletin Xo. 12 of the Division of Horti- 

 culture of the University of Minnesota, 

 8t. Anthony Park. Jlinn.. designed for 

 the use of students. It contains 72 

 pages, is very freely illustrated and the 

 lessons !-cem to be of a very practical 

 character. The titles of the lessons in 

 the bulletin are: Large seeds vs. small 

 seeds. Seed sowing in boxes. Plant feed- 

 ing with nitrogen. Pollination of Mowers, 

 Plants from cuttings. Corrosion of nuiv- 

 ble by roots. CJrafting. Hudding. Potting, 

 Vitality of seeds. Purity test of seeds. 

 Pricking out. Treatment to prevent pota- 

 to scab, Bordeaux mixture. Spray pumps, 

 Packing nursery stock. Use of garden 

 seed drills and liaud cultivators, Heeling 

 in. Planting out. Pruning and methods 

 of winter protecticm. Such a series of 

 lessons could not fail to lie very helpful 

 to beginners. It is evident that the Hor- 

 ticultural Division of the Minnesota 

 University is doing good and practical 

 work.
