MR. OTTO BUSECK, Supt. Middlemount Nurseries, Asheville, N. C, writes: 



"Your patented LEAK-PROOF gutter has stood the test. We had 

 27 days of constant rain and no leak anywhere. We are glad to substan- 

 tiate the claims you make for this gutter." 



We are the patentees and sole manufacturers of this 



LEAK-PROOF gutter which is giving so much satisfaction.

DULUTH, MINN. 



The Market. 



Duluth experienced a cold spell dur- 

 ing Christmas week, althougli it had no 

 effect on business and everyone was 

 well satisfied. Stock was fairly jilenti- 

 ful in all lines except red carnations. 

 Eoses were good, especially in the longer 

 grades. The varieties selling best were 

 Columbia, Eussell, Premier, Hoosier 

 Beauty, Milady, Ophelia, Sunburst and 

 White Killarney. There were a few 

 Cecile Brunners, but the quality was 

 poor. Poinsettias were fine and sold at 

 good prices. Carnations were good and 

 sold well even at advanced prices. 

 Easter lilies, sweet peas, violets, calen- 

 dulas and stevia were in supply equal to 

 the demand. Valley was plentiful, but 

 orchids were scarce. Potted plants, 

 chiefly cyclamens, poinsettias, Christmas 

 peppers, begonias, primulas and hya- 

 cinths, were made up in varinus t'om- 

 binations and sold well. 



Various Notes. 



The Duluth Floral Co. had a busy 

 week and the staff was kept working 

 until late hours most of the Aveek. This 

 firm had attractive arrangements of 

 English hollj', such as baskets, table 

 centerpieces and wreaths. Red candles 

 tied witli holly ribbon were used effect- 

 ively, and although they had a large 

 stock, everything was cleaned ui> be 

 fore Christmas day. 



William Japp, of Lester Park, reports 

 an entire clean-up. His poinsettias were 

 exceptionally fine, as was also a batch of 

 Dutch hyacinths, which he timed well 

 for Chistmas week. 



The Quality Flower Shop made a good 

 display of Christmas baskets.
