large decoration here. Mr. Hart Has 

 something entirely new in a violet cord, 

 whi<Mi he Is putting on the market. 



The last monthly meeting of the 

 Florists' Association was the best' in 

 attendance and the most thoroughly en- 

 joyed that we have had. Many of the 

 local growers sent in exhibits of chrys- 

 anthemums, plants, etc. A very instruct- 

 ive paper was read by Mr. Ogsten, gar- 

 dener for Mr. S. Kimball, on "Exhibi- 

 tion Blooms, ' ' a few of which he brought 

 along and they were fine. It ■yvas de- 

 cided to make a change in the constitu- 

 tion and by-laws, so as to allow any one 

 connected with the business to become a 

 member of the association.

. The Market. 



Thanksgiving trade was as good as 

 usual this year. Everything in the line 

 of flowers sold well. Many blooming 

 plants were sold. There was a scarcity 

 of Beauty roses, as they are off crop 

 here at present. However, orchids, lily 

 of the valley and violets helped out 

 nicely. There was an unusual rush for 

 good stock. 



Various Notes. 



The Baur Floral Co. held its annual 

 chrysanthemum exhibit Thanksgiving 

 week. Much interest was manifested in 

 several new varieties shown. 



Dean Hill is on the sick list. 



John V. Laver, who has been ill for 

 some time, is convalescing. 



Mr.. Langhans, of the Pittsburg Cut 

 Flower Co., was in the city a few days 

 ago. 



Miss T. Baur is visiting her sister, Mrs. 

 Lewis Perkins, at Welland, Ontario, 

 Canada. 



The Misses Berger have gone into 

 landscape gardening. They are furnish- 

 ing trees and shrubbery from their office 

 on East Eleventh street, and kwp a 

 force of men employed while the season 

 lasts. B. P.
