The Florists^ Review 



Mai 14, 1914, 



MINNEAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Everyone in Minneapolis had all the 

 business that was wanted for Mothers' 

 day. The cold and cloudy weather cre- 

 ated a shortage of roses and carnations, 

 the supply of white carnations being 

 exhausted early May 9, with none to 

 be had at any price. Business in gen- 

 eral is good, the only complaint being 

 as to the supply of salable stock. 



Club Meeting. 



At the monthly meeting of the Flo- 

 rists' Club May 5, the convention asso- 

 ciation, which handled the local details 

 for the 1913 meeting of the S. A. F., 

 presented its final report and was dis- 

 solved. ^After all obligations had been 

 met the association turned back to the 

 club a surplus, with the recommendation 

 that a part go into the treasury of the 

 club and that the balance be set aside 

 as a reserve fund to be employed from 

 time to time to meet the initial ex- 

 penses of flower shows or similar educa- 

 tional undertakings. The club accepted 

 the report and created a board of trus- 

 tees for the reserve, consisting of C. F. 

 Rice, C. N. Ruedlinger, Hugh "Will, W. 

 D. Desmond and Theodore Wirth, their 

 terms to expire one each year in the 

 order named. 



In winding up the affairs of the con- 

 vention association, Chairman Wirth 

 was given a vote of thanks and John S. 

 Mitchell was elected an honorary mem- 

 ber of the Florists' Club in recognition 

 of the thorough manner in which he 

 handled the finances of the association.

UTICA, N. Y. 



Mothers' day here was a great suc- 

 cess. Although the newspapers sug- 

 gested a white carnation as the emblem 

 for Mothers' day, every color was sold 

 out before Sunday noon. Not even a 

 single bloom could be found in any 

 store after noon. The rush started Sat- 

 urday afternoon and continued until 

 late in the night. Sunday every florist 

 was busy as a bee, which caused C. 

 Brown, proprietor of the Utica Floral 

 Co., to remark "there won't be a stem 

 left," and that proved true. Following 

 the advice of The Review the Utica 

 Floral Co. had a large sign in the win- 

 dow reading: 



MOTHERS' DAY 



Wear flowers for ber sake. 



Any kind is appropriato, 



But wear the kind Mother likes best.
