The Weekly Florists' Review* 



The Market 

 Trade experienced a little dullness the 

 past week, which was probably due to 

 our state fair taking the attention of 

 people to the exclusion of everything 

 else. Stock is more plentiful First- 

 class roses are scarce but there is an 

 abundance of short stemmed stock. A 

 few carnations are being cut, but not 

 enough for the demand. Asters are be- 

 coming scarce, and at best are but poor. 



Various Notes. 



At the State Fair this week the Minne- 

 apolis brethren were the only competitors, 

 Monson, Nagel, Mendenhall and Vasatka 

 taking the majority of the premiums. 



At the recent fall opening of Donald- 

 son's Glass Block, in Minneapolis, the 

 floral decorations were most elaborate 

 and very tastily arranged by Mr. Souden. 

 Hydrangea paniculata, Golden Glow, 

 gladioli and dahlias were employed "i 

 groups and masses with charming effect.

BRICK BENCHES. 

 How do you fix the bottom of benches 

 lined with brick. What do the bricks 

 rest upon? How many bricks will be 

 required for two benches each 7x50 

 feet! K. A. W. 



For benches of ordinary width l%x 

 l^x 1 ^, or 2x2x%-inch tee irons make 

 good supports for brick bottom, the tees 

 being laid with the leg of the tee point- 

 ing upwards. The average size of brick, 

 assuming that common building bricks 

 are referred to, is about 4x8 inches, thus 

 about 1,575 bricks would be needed for 

 a bench 7x50 feet.
