MERRY CHRISTMAS 



FIVE YEARS AGO we offered you Pocahontas, with the assurance that it would soon displace all other 

 crimsons. Some of you bought it and were glad. Others turned it down and later on regretted having done 

 so. That is why the demand for the cuttings was fully double the supply this past winter. This is not 

 meant for a complaint, but merely to caution you not to make the same mistake with Merry Christmas. We 

 believe that Merry Christmas will take the same place among scarlets that Pocahontas holds among the 

 crimsons. If you have confidence in our judgment, send us your order now and get in on the early deliveries. Dissemina- 

 tion begins next December.

Tlie Market. 



The retailers continue busy. School 

 graduations take their usual quantities 

 of flowers, and many weddings, both 

 large and small, are booked for this 

 month. Several of the stores have had 

 some large decorations, both in and out 

 of the city. Roses and carnations con- 

 tinue scarce and of poor quality, owing 

 to the cool, cloudy weather. Outside 

 flowers, such as peonies, irises, etc., are 

 arriving and the cool weather is pro- 

 longing the blooming period and hard- 

 ening the . flowers. The demand for 

 these is good. The planting season is 

 about completed and most growers re- 

 port a good, big season, with their 

 stock well disposed of. 



Various Notes. 



The regular meeting of the St. Paul 

 Florists' Club was held at O. R. Eck- 

 hardt's, June 13. The picnic in con- 

 junction with the Minnesota State Flo- 

 rists' Association and the Minneapolis 

 Florists' Club was discussed and a com- 

 mittee was appointed to attend the 

 meeting of the Minnesota State Flo- 

 rists' Association at Holm & Olson's, 

 June 22, when a Minneapolis delegation 

 would also be on hand. The program 

 for this meeting includes a stereopticon 

 lecture on "The Minneapolis Park Sys- 

 tem," by Theodore Wirth, of Minne- 

 apolis, and an address on "Outdoor 

 Rose Culture," by Ernest Meyers. 



Among recent visitors were Frank M. 



Johnson and Frank McCabe, of the 



A. L. Randall Co., Chicago, and 



A. Miller, of Henderson & Co., Chicago. 



C. R. F. 



Emporia, Kan. — After years of ex- 

 perience as a grower, recently with the 

 Emporia Floral Co., George A. Speer 

 has launched a florists' business of his 

 own. 



, Great Bend, Kan. — The hail storm 

 that visited this section the last of last 

 month broke 4,000 square feet of glass 

 at the range of Stoke & Stoke. Grow- 

 ing stock was badly damaged by hail 

 and falling glass. The total loss was 

 estimated at $1,000. The glass was in- 

 sured.
