MINNEAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



The weather man has finally turned his 

 thoughts toward the grower, and turned 

 the weather a trifle warmer, so that the 

 people took courage enough to allow the 

 lawns to be planted. Plants are in good 

 condition this year, and stock of that 

 kind seems to be plentiful. Eoses are a 

 drug on the market. Carnations are about 

 equal to the demand, gladioli are here 

 in fair quantities and sweet peas are 

 plentiful. There are no outdoor flowers 

 as yet, and the outlook for cut flower 

 sales for Decoration day is encouraging. 



Various Notei. 



The parks are looking especially fine 

 this year in their tulip bed decorations. 

 The planting was quite successful. 



The Minneapolis Floral Co. has just re- 

 ceived a fine consignment of large phoenix 

 and bay trees. Business is excellent at 

 this place, and the out-of-town shipping 

 is most satisfactory. 



Miss Whitted had some good funeral 

 work last week, both here and outside of 

 town. 



Souden & Desmond find trade as rush- 

 ing as ever in the new store. 



B. A. Latham is getting in some fine 

 sweet peas. 



O. C. Swanson has a window full of 

 fine irises, gladioli, etc. 



A pretty substitute for rice and old 

 shoes at a recent wedding consisted of 

 hundreds of little balls of florists' net- 

 ting containing rose petals.

South Beaintbee, Mass. — Edward Ar- 

 nold, of the Music hall block, supplied 

 the decorations for the seventh annual 

 concert and ball of the Street Railway 

 Employees' Union, in Music hall. In 

 front of the space occupied by the or- 

 chestra there was a fine display of potted 

 palms and ferns. On the front part of 

 the platform Mr. Arnold had constructed 

 a good-sized street car, composed of daf- 

 fodils, carnations, pansies and asparagus. 

 On each end of the cet was a lay figure 

 representing a conductor and motorman, 

 and as the grand march started, the car 

 was illuminated by electric lights.
