 Considerable space was reported sold 

 in the trade exhibits' department, the 

 exhibitors including a number of the 

 prominent retailers. Arrangements 

 were made to materially extend the 

 private gardeners' section of the pre-

 wishes of exhibitors. A number of ad- 

 ditional committees were suggested, 

 which will be announced as soon as 

 completed.

 ready and copies may be had on appli- 

 cation to N. P. Miller, 179 North Wa-

The Market. 



The market is steady. The demand 

 about equals the cut. The quality of 

 the stock is good. The carnation cut 

 is getting larger as cool nights draw 

 near. 



Various Notea 



Everybody is getting ready for the 

 great Missouri state fair. From a flo- 

 rist's standpoint, it will be greater 

 than ever before. Among the exhibi- 

 tors from this place will be the 

 Archias Floral Co., the Archias Seed
