ST. PAUL. 



A Retrospect. 



A brief retrospect, after a month 's va- 

 ••ation^ may not be amiss. When I left, 

 August 1, the grass was green, the trees 

 were all glorious with their wealth of 

 foliage, and all nature seemed full of 

 life and vigor. Early asters gave prom- 

 ise of a bountiful crop. 



On my return, August 31, the grass is 

 brown and withered, many of the shade 

 trees are leafless and the withering hand 

 of drought has stricken everything in 

 the vegetable kingdom. What few asters 

 have survived are smjrtl and inferior. 



Business has been good. Who ever saw 

 it poor when there v/as a scarcity of 

 flowers? The cool fall evenings are 

 calling the wanderers home from lake 

 shore, mountain top and ocean's wave, 

 andr'soon society, that great factor in 

 promoting our business, will be in full 

 sway and creating demands unheard of 

 during the swramer months. 



Various Notes. 



The state fair, which has just closed, 

 broke all records for attendance and dis- 

 plays, even surpassing the great Toronto 

 fair. While the premiums offered for 

 floral displays were not at all commen- 

 surate with the material used, there were 

 still a number of exhibitors. A. S. Swan- 

 son, of St. Paul, the Minneapolis Floral 

 Co., James Souden & Co., E. Nagel & 

 Co., R. A. Latham and John Vasatka 

 were the principal contestants, the prizes 

 being pretty evenly distributed among 

 them. 



The annual meeting of the Minnesota 

 State Florists' Society, for the election 

 of officers, was adjourned from Septem- 

 ber 3 to September 15, at 8 p. m., at 

 which time a splendid attendance is hoped 

 for. 



O. J. Olson went duck hunting Sep- 

 tember 1, returning with fifty fine birds 

 September 3. 



S. D. Dysingcr has rnturnod from his 

 vacation. X. Y. Z. 



Tewksbury, Mass. — Chester and Jesse 

 Trull are erecting an additional green- 

 house, 30x200, on the John Trull place. 



Spartanburg, S. C. — C. A. Moss is 

 planning a new place; when this plant 

 is finished it will consist of 65,000 feet 

 of glass. It will take several years to 

 complete the plant, building a few 

 houses each year. Carnations will be the 

 principal flower grown. Business is 

 about the same as last vear.
