MINNEAPOLIS. 



Various Notes. 



The Minneapolis Floral Co. is cutting 

 a good batch of roses, comprising "Ward, 

 Killarney, Eichmond and other vari- 

 eties. Carnations and snapdragons also 

 are much in evidence at the store. The 

 planting of chrysanthemums has been 

 completed. 



The Hiawatha Nursery Co. has set 

 out a fine lot of mums. The ferns are 

 in splendid condition. 



The weather last -week was warm. 

 Flower gardens and parks are blazes 

 of blooms, the hardy flowering plants 

 doing extremely well. 



The Mazey Floral Co. had several 

 artistic window displays last week. 

 Large clusters of garden flowers in 

 handsome containers were arranged 

 with ferns, palms and roses. Business 

 is splendid at the Mazey Floral Co. 

 store, both in retail work and in the 

 decorative department. 



The Lake Street Florist is progressing 

 rapidly. Last week there was an at- 

 tractive display of large baskets of 

 gladioli, irises and daisies. 



Miss H. B. Whitted continues to be 

 the busy business woman. Her two 

 stores are well patronized and the 

 many orders for decorations keep the 

 staff stepping lively. During the in- 

 tense heat last week one gave a sigh of 

 relief on entering the Whitted stores, 

 which, somehow, have a cool appear- 

 ance. 



W. F. Holmes has turned out con- 

 siderable decorative work of late. 

 His place of business was a sight 

 to please any eye last week. There 

 ■Was an unusual display of high- 

 grade flowers and new creations in re- 

 ceptacles. The Fourth of July window 

 showed the stars and stripes set oflE by 

 the deep purple of irises. 



The New York Florist store is a busy 

 place these days. A fine business is 

 done in plants, cut flowers and decora- 

 tive work. 



T. S. (Lynes has a fine stock of cut 

 flowers and reports good business. 



Carnation stocks in the fields are do- 

 ing well, although at first the growths 

 were a bit soft. Where properly 

 stopped, the plants are good and bushy. 

 Great quantities of carnations are used 

 in the Twin Cities, but not one-tenth 

 of them are grown here. Some day 

 they will be. F. E. B. 



NEWPORT, E. I. . 



Alfred T. Bunyard has acquired a 22- 

 horsepower touring car and a 22-horse- 

 power truck. 



Miss Emma Hitchie and two children 

 of her brother, Charles Eitchie, were 

 among the victims of a wholesale poi- 

 soning case at a Sunday school picnic. 



Ealph Armstrong had a pretty float 

 in the preparedness parade here July 

 4. At the recent parade of the Moose 

 Oscar Schultz's float won the cup as 

 the best decorated automobile in line. 



Peter M. Eennie has accepted a posi- 

 tion as gardener for H. F. Webster, at 

 Pen Craig cottage. W. H. M.
