"While we do not know exactly 

 where we stand financially as the result 

 of the flower show, it is safe to say 

 that the assessment on the guarantee 

 fund will not be more than fifteen or 

 twenty per cent," says F. H. Holton, 

 of the Milwaukee Florists' Club. "The 

 deficit will not be more than $200, and 

 we are more than satisfied. We had 

 not expected it tb be so successful and 

 at one time we thought we would be 

 lucky if the deficit did not exceed the 

 guarantee fund of $1,200. We regard 

 the show as a success in every way, and 

 the experience gained through it will 

 be valuable in making arrangements 

 for a bigger and better one next 

 year. ' '

Market Improved. 



Since last report there has been a de- 

 cided increase in business all along the 

 line and prices are firmer on all good 

 stock. Chrysanthemums are gradually 

 decreasing but there is no scarcity as 

 yet. Koses are still too plentiful, no doubt 

 because of the mild weather. Carnations 

 continue scarce and prices have stiffened 

 on all grades and the chances are that 

 they will continue short in supply for 

 some weeks to come. 



Club News. 



The meeting of the Gardeners' and 

 Florists' Club on November 13 was well

 UflBer and Seybold and those who spoke 

 on the subject were Messrs. Wagner, 

 Uffler and Hennigan. A vase of chry- 

 santhemums exhibited by the president, 

 P. B. Welsh, which he considered good 

 commercial varieties, included Paoli 

 Radaelli, Percy Plumridge, Dr. Engue-

 asked: "Are the opportunities to learn 

 gardening in the United States as good 

 as they are in Europe?" Mr. Seybold 

 said he did not think they were.

The Wiedey greenhouses at Govans- 

 town narrowly escaped being destroyed 

 by fire one day last week. 



P. B. Welsh, of Glen Morris, is cut-

 ter in stem than Flora Hill.

YOUNGSTOWN. OHIO. 



John Walker of the firm of Walker & 

 McLean has a petition in court against 

 George and Sarah McLean praying for 

 the dissolution of the partnership and 

 asking that a receiver be appointed. 

 Judge Robinson named William Corne- 

 lius receiver and fixed his bond at $5,- 

 000. Plaintiff contends that the de- 

 fendant has put money into the part- 

 nership which was borrowed on the firm 's 

 indorsement and which is yet unpaid. 

 He also charges that the defendant is 

 about to withdraw from said partnership 

 and wishes protection on the paper.
