The Market. 



' Fall has arrWed sure enouglf. We 

 had a week of cold, rainy weather, but 

 as yet no frost. The florists report busi- 

 ness good, with a large number of fu- 

 neral orders and niuefi decorative work. 

 There is a large demand for cut flowers. 

 Roses are plentiful now; carnations are 

 scarce. Gladioli still remain abundant 

 and many good varieties are to be had. 

 They sell well. There is a large supply 

 of cosmos in the market and many 

 charming effects may be made with 

 these dainty flowers in pink, white and 

 purple. The demand for cosmos equals 

 the supply. Rubrum lilies are scarce, 

 and this also is true of Easter lilies. 

 <Jhrysanthemums are arriving some- 

 what slowly. The blooms are small, 

 but as a whole they are of fair quality 

 for this time of year. Boston ferns are 

 excellent. There is promise of a fine 

 fall trade. 



State Fair Winners.

 hibit of Holm & Olson, of St. Paul, of
