The Market. 



Business, while not rushing, is good. 

 Stock is more plentiful, but still not 

 quite equal to the demand. Boses of 

 fine quality are arriving, the prices on 

 these ranging from $1 to $8 per hun- 

 dred. Excellent Beauties were seen in 

 the market and these found a ready- 

 sale, Easter and rubrum lilies are 

 scarce and the big demand for them 

 keeps prices high. Valley and violets 

 may be had, but as yet they are not 

 plentiful. Chrysanthemums are arriv- 

 ing more rapidly. Cyclamens and prim- 

 roses now are in the market, and, 

 although somewhat scarce and high- 

 priced, find a ready sale. Splendid 

 green goods are to be had. Boston 

 ferns are beginning to crowd the mar- 

 ket. 



Various Notes. 



The retailers' stores and windows 

 are most attractive. The combined use 

 of autumn foliage with splendid colors 

 in flowers makes the displays fine. 



William F. Holmes last week deco- 

 rated his store quite artistically. He 

 has made many alterations and im- 

 provements at his place. He reports 

 a good business and a steady trade. 



O. C. Swanson had a pretty display 

 of livistonas, autumn foliage and fine 

 yellow chrysanthemums. 



Miss H. B. Whitted reports a week 

 of good business, with a large number 

 of funeral orders. The window display 

 at the Fifth street store was much ad- 

 mired. 



Johnson & Co., one of the new retail 

 concerns, are doing splendidly. This 

 company carries a fine stock and is 

 building up a good trade. 



W. H. Bofferding, of the W. H. Bof- 

 ferding Seed Co., is commencing his 

 fall planting. 



The Minneapolis Florists' Club held 

 its meeting October 3, at the store of 

 Eice Bros. The election of. officers re- 

 sulted as foUows^: President, John G. 

 Taylor; vice-president, T. N. Nagel. 

 This is the third time Mr. Taylor has 

 been elected to the president's chair. 



The Minnesota State Florists* Asso- 

 ciation's meeting was held October 11 

 at the establishment of Eice Bros. The 

 following were elected to hold office 

 for the coming year: President, Le Eoy 

 Cady; vice-president for Minneapolis, 

 Hans Eosacker; vice-president for St. 

 Paul, Mr. Lauritzen; secretary, W. H.
