The Market 



Trade this month has been fairly good, 

 though the great number of rainy days 

 have tended to keep the volume of busi- 

 ness down. 



Decoration day prospects are quite 

 pfomising. Lilacs will be past their 

 prime and snowballs not in full bloom 

 for the occasion, so that the florists will 

 be called upon to supply the most of 

 the flowers for decorating. 



Country trade is increasing every day, 

 the demand for school graduates and for 

 weddings being brisk. 



Qub Meetine. 



The Twin City Florists' Club met at 

 Holm & Olson's store May 19. Owing to 

 the busy planting season being on, the 

 attendance was somewhat smaller than 

 usual. 



The committee to draft a new consti- 

 tution and by-laws reported and ihe 

 matter was laid over for action until 

 the next meeting. It is proposed to 

 incorporate under the name of the Min- 

 nesota State Florists' Association. 



Mr. Meyer 's paper on ' * Shrubs for 

 Florists" was put over till the next 

 meeting. 



Albert Christensen, of the Minneapolis 

 Electric Co., gave an interesting outline 

 on ' ' Growing Plants by Electric Light, ' ' 

 and offered to give a more complete talk 

 on the subject at some future time. 



X. Y. Z. 



TERRE HAUTE, IND. 



Alexander Millar, Jr., the last two 

 years fireman for the Green Floral and 

 Nursery Co., of Dallas, Tex., has leased 

 the plant of the Terre Haute Rose & 

 Carnation Co., of this place, wholesale 

 growers of cut flowers. 



Dr. Edward Reiss, a dentist of this 

 city, built the greenhouses, containing 

 40,000 square feet of glass, two years 

 ago, making them modem and up-to- 

 date. Mr. Millar, who took charge April 1, 

 is one of the foremost growers of the 

 country, and will enlarge the plant at 

 once, to take better care of growing 

 trade. Dr. Reiss will remain interested 

 in the company. 



WooNSOCKET, R. I. — Simon Colitz, 

 proprietor of the Rustic Flower Store, 

 will be married June 11 to Miss Ida Cap- 

 Ian, daughter of Mrs. Esther Caplan, of 

 Roxbury, Mass. Miss Caplan formerly 

 resided in this city.
