The Weekly Florists^ Review^ 



OCTOBEB 3, 1007. 



ST. PAUL. 



SUtc of Trade. 



Killing frosts have destroyed outside 

 stock, driven the lake dwellers homeward 

 and hastened social functions, all of 

 which tends to improve trade. Stock is 

 fairly plentiful, but the best grades of 

 it are scarce. Carnations are becoming 

 more plentiful and the quality is improv- 

 ing daily. A few violets are coming in, 

 wMle the first of the mums have made 

 their appearance. A number of millinery 

 openings have created some demand for 

 palms and decorative material, while the 

 first fall receptions are setting the style 

 by using autumn foliage in quantity. 



The Greek has invaded this territory 

 once more and has a full-fledged flower 

 department in one of the large stores. A 

 local grocery store also has been selling 

 palms, rubbers and ferns at "bargain" 

 prices. 



Various Note*. 



Holm & Olson have had several large 

 wedding decorations lately and report 

 trade in their new location as fully forty 

 per cent better than when they moved 

 in a year ago. 



John A. May, who has been identified 

 with the trade for many years, has en- 

 gaged in the shoe business. 



L. L. May & Co. have incorporated 

 and have plans for largely extending the 

 business. 



Holm & Olson are building a new 

 propagating bouse and are extending 

 their palm house. They have recently 

 erected a large barn and wagon-shed, as 

 well as made several other improvements 

 about their premises. 



Chas. Keiper is cutting some very fine 

 nnims. 



Recent callers were J. J. Karins, of 

 the H. A. Dreer Co.; Martin Reukauf, 

 representing Bayersdorfer & Co.; Wm. 

 Abrahamson, of E. H. Hunt, Chicago; 

 J. J. Comont, of Carter, Dunnett & 

 Beale, London. 



The St, Paul Floral Co. is rebuilding 

 one house. X. Y. Z. 



I HAVE been very much pleased with 

 the articles published in the Review 

 and could hardly do without it. — Wm, 

 J. Thoms. 



Portsmouth, Va, — During a cyclone 

 last week a greenhouse in course of 

 erection at D 'Alcorn & Sons' was blown 

 onto their chrysanthemum house, smash- 

 ing about 100 panes of 16x20 glass. The 

 firm cheerfully remarked, "It might 

 have been worse. We have less disbud- 

 ding to do, anyhow," Two dwelling 

 houses were wrecked and a dump cart 

 was blown about like a newspaper.
