The Weekly Florists^ Review. 



Mat 80. 190T. 



SPRINGFIELD, ILL. 



A pamphlet has been issued giving 

 the full list of premiums -offerea in the 

 department for floriculture at the State 

 fair here, September 27 to October 5. 

 The list is much the largest of any ever 

 offered for floriculture. There are 147 

 classes, only forty-seven of which are 

 restricted to amateur growers. The 

 premiums are liberal, for flfty Beauties 

 three prizes being offered, $50, $35 and 

 $25. For dinner-table arrangements the 

 sums are $50, $30 and »^0. For groups 

 of stove and greenhouse plants the pre- 

 miums are $60, $40 and $20. For best 

 set piece the premiums are $50, $30 and 

 $20. 



It is expected that the result of the 

 increase in premiums will be to bring 

 out a floral display much larger than ajiy 

 ever seen at a state fair. Those who wish 

 copies of the list should address W. C. 

 Garrard, secretary, Springfield, 111., or 

 Kobert O'Dwyer, superintendent of flori- 

 culture, Desplaines and Monroe streets, 

 Chicago. 



CXJDEN, UTAH. 



Florists of Ogden perfected an organ- 

 ization at the court house May 21, for 

 the promotion of good fellowship, the 

 culture of flowers and the improvement 

 of the general appearance of the city 

 parks and public places. T. W. Stil- 

 well was elected president and F. J. 

 Hendershot, Jr., secretary and treasurer. 



A committee was appointed to meet 

 with the Civdc League and the park com- 

 missioners for the purpose of selecting 

 locations for flower beds which the flo- 

 rists have offered to place on city prop- 

 erty at an early date. These beds will 

 be seasonable, and will be renewed each 

 spring. A plot is being worked out to 

 adorn the west half of the city square, 

 which will be sowed with grass this sum- 

 mer. Besides offering such gifts to the 

 city, tne organization will promote in- 

 terest in the maintenance of lawns, 

 shrubbery, trees and plants. 



The Ogden Florists' Society is the 

 name selected.
