Dece-MRER 3. 1903 



ST. PAUL. 



The Market. 



As far as I t-an Icai-u everybody in the 

 trade here was well pleased with Thaiiks- 

 yliving. Trade came at the last moment, 

 however, but few advance orders being 

 l)laced. Stock was pretty well cleaned 

 n]i, though there was enough to go 

 around. The demand for Beauties and 

 violets was exceptionally good. Mums 

 sold well and carnations, as usual, were 

 ])rimo favorites. 



Green and holly are now in and some 

 of the larger stores are beginning to don 

 holiday attire. Holly seems plentiful 

 and of good quality, but bouquet green 

 is very scarce. 



The weather is now favorable and a 

 big Christmas cut is being anticipated by 

 the growers. December is the dark and 

 cloudy mouth and every day of sunshine 

 means dollars to the growers. 



Notes. 



L. L. May & Co. had a rather unique 

 window for Thanksgiving, the center fea- 

 ture of which was a plumji turkey gob- 

 bler made of galax leaves and mums. 

 This was designed and executed by Gust 

 Colberg, the manager of the retail store. 



A. S. Swanson has a full house of 

 ]i(iins-ettias, grown to perfection; just 

 right for the Christmas trade. 



A'isitnrs during the week were J. Mc- 

 Ilutchii-on, of New York, and L. P. Lord, 

 of 0\\atonna. X. Y. Z. 



CHESTER, PA. 



The arbitrators have given an award 

 of $8,000 for the minor children of 

 Thomas F. Delahunt, the florist, against 

 the United Telephone Company, ilr. 

 Delahunt -was killed in his greenhouse 

 on April 9, 1902, by a shocii of elec- 

 tricity while he was answering a call 

 at the telephone, and it was shown that 

 a -wire of the defendant company was 

 crossed with an electric light cable. 

 The company will appeal the case.
