TVIN CITIES. 



The Market 



Business last week was steady and 

 the general report is that every one had 

 about all he could take care of conveni- 

 ently. Specimen blooms of chrysanthe- 

 mums were in big demand and, except 

 with two of our largest growers, they 

 were hard to secure. Medium sized 

 mums did not seem to sell as well as the 

 larger blooms. Roses are not too plenti- 

 ful and a great many were shipped in 

 for the Thanksgiving trade. Carnations 

 were also quite scarce. Violets were 

 largely called for, even at $1 per bunch 

 of twenty-five. Chrysanthemum plants 

 are slow sale. A great many dealers 

 are carrying quite a number, but in 

 order to get anything out of them, are 

 compelled to cut them and use them for 

 cut flowers. Funeral work has been 

 heavy.

The partnership in the Swanson Floral 

 Co. has been dissolved, Gust A. Colberg 

 having purchased August S. Swanson 's 

 share in the business. In future it will 

 be run under the name of Gust A. Col- 

 berg. 



J. W. Hoffman, manager of the L. L. 

 May & Co. retail cut flower department, 

 says Thanksgiving trade exceeded by 

 considerable that of a year ago. 



Olaf J. Olson, of Holm & Olson, says 

 their trade was good and in addition to 

 disposing of all their own chrysanthe- 

 mums they bought large numbers from 

 other growers. Trade in their new store, 

 he says, has increased greatly. 



C. F. Vogt reports a good trade, the 

 demand for floral designs being espe- 

 cially heavy, 



Vogt Bros, report a fine trade for 

 Thanksgiving and a very heavy demand 

 for violets, which were hard to obtain. 



E. T. Lemke has had possibly as fine 

 a lot of mums as were seen this season; 

 also his violets and carnations are hard 

 to beat. 



Minneapolis. 



Jas. Souden, of the Wm. Donaldson 

 Co., says they had about all the busi- 

 ness they could take care of. Their 

 own stock is doing well, but on account 

 of the heavy demand they are compelled 

 to buy considerable. 



Ralph Latham says trade is good and 

 so far has been able to secure some fine 

 roses, especially Chatenay, Brides and 

 Maids. Felix. 



MONTPELIEK, Vt. — The state legisla- 

 ture on November 23 passed a bill fixing 

 a license for dealers in evergreen trees.
