embellishment. It Is clearly printed and Ut- 

 lahljr Illustrated, with an unusually generous use 

 of colored work. It is of the same size as last 

 year's edition — 164 large pages — and of ttie same 

 general arrangement, except that in the present 

 book a much larger proportion of the illustra- 

 tions are colored. All departments of the seed 

 luid nursery business are represented. 



F. 0. Bumi, San Rafael, Cal. — An 8-page dah- 

 lia catalogue, in an artistic, marbled cover with 

 a green and gold design. Twenty-two varietiea 

 Me listed, more than half of them of Mr. Bums' 

 own Introduction. Dahlia seeds also are offered. 



L. £. Wllllami, Exeter, N. H. — A 16-page cat- 

 alogue of collected native tree^, shrubs, bulbs 

 and plants. Among the plants are Included a 

 few varieties of orchids. The trees and shrubs 

 vary in size from large specimens to small stock 

 for lining up in the nursery. 



May Seed & Nursery Co., Shenandoah, la. — 

 "May'a Ainual Seed Book and Planter's Guide," 

 an lUuatrated, 96-page catalogue of the "Shen- 

 andoah brand" of stock. The seed and nursery 

 departments occupy almost equal amounts of 

 epace in the book; the tools and supplies are 

 also prominent. An enclosed pink sheet quotes 

 revised prices. 



Henry F. Kichell Co., Philadelphia, Pa.— 

 Wholesale catalogue of seeds, bulbs, plants and 

 miscellaneous supplies; a handsome, well Uluth 

 trated book, containing eighty-four good-sized 

 pages, besides four pages of inserts, showing 

 dahliaa, gladioli, buddleias, etc., in their nat- 

 aral colors. On the cover, also, are colored pic- 

 tures of many distinct varieties of stock. Hy- 

 4rangea8 for forcing are among the specialties. 



DULXJTH, MINN. 



The Market. 



; The weather turned cold again last 

 week, going below zero, and spoiled the 

 window displays for St. Valentine's 

 day. The windows were all frozen over 

 and no one could see in from the out- 

 side, but for all that, business was good. 

 Pot plants sold well and there were hya- 

 cinths in all colors, cinerarias, cyclamens, 

 tulips, daffodils, primulas and genistas, 

 which made ideal valentines when at- 

 );ractively pot-covered. Cut flowers are 

 ptill scarce and prices high. Short roses 

 seem to be a thing of the past, but some 

 good stock was seen with medium and 

 long stems. Ophelia, Premier, Killar- 

 ney, Columbia, Hoosier Beauty and 

 Ward were the best selling varieties. 

 American Beauties were good in the 

 long-stemmed stock, but the shorts were 

 of poor quality. Carnations sold well, 

 .though the stock is on the short side. 

 Corsage work was a big factor for St. 

 Valentine 's day and the flowers used 

 chiefly were valley, violets, cattleyas, 

 Ward roses and sweet peas. Funeral 

 work was brisk all the week. 



Various Notes. 



William Japp, of Lester Park, is send- 

 ing in some fine genistas and daffodils. 



J. J. Le Borious has a fine batch of 

 hyacinths and cinerarias. 

 . O. J. Eischen, of the Duluth Floral 

 Co., who had an attack of the flu, is im- 

 proving steadily. J. E. S. 



Toledo, O. — The Miller Farm & Green- 

 house Co. was incorporated recently 

 jwith a capitalization of $100,000.
