The Market. 



Business last week still showed an in- 

 clination to increase. With continued 

 cool weather and an abundance of rain, 

 all outside stock is in the best of condi- 

 tion. Gladioli, asters and perennials 

 are coming in better each day. During 

 the last week funeral work has shown 

 up remarkably well. 



Various Notes. 



As the Chicago convention is nearing, 

 a number of local florists £|.re getting 

 anxious. There will, no doubt, be a 

 good representation at Chicago from 

 St. Paul. 



A number of park superintendents 

 from the west stopped off in St. Paul 

 and were shown about this city and 

 Minneapolis. They expressed them- 

 selves as well pleased with the appear- 

 ance of our parks. They were en route 

 to the park superintendents' conven- 

 tion, to be held in Boston. 



A flower show was held at White 

 Bear, August 10. As the surrounding 

 country supplies practically all of St. 

 Paul's outside stock, a fine showing 

 was made. 



August 11 was flower mission day at 

 Stillwater prison. It is the custom to 

 present to each prisoner, as he leaves 

 the chapel, a bunch of flowers. As this 

 work is done by the ladies of the W. C. 

 T U , it is all a charity affair. A great 

 many St. Paul florists donated the 

 flowers. 



The state fair grounds are rapidly 

 being put in shape for the coming fair. 

 The landscape department is busy get-

ting the bedding to look its best for 

 that time. Some pretty effects are 

 seen. 



Holm & Olson have been awarded the 

 contract for the laying out of fifty acres 

 of parkway at Superior, Wis. The con- 

 tract includes the laying out of picnic 

 grounds, ball grounds, tennis courts, 

 dancing pavilion and bathing beach. 

 The planting will be started next year. 



Leo Hermes recently sold his green- 

 houses on Gorman avenue. The new firm 

 is Munich & Wahler. Mr. Munich is 

 from Pittsburgh and Mr. Wahler is from 

 Chicago, where he was with Peter Rein- 

 berg. The location is a good one and 

 there is a market here for all stock. 

 The new firm has the best wishes of 

 the trade in St. Paul. Mr. Hermes, 



who formerly was in the grocery busi- 

 ness here, has returned to that vocation, 

 having purchased a store on South 

 Wabasha street. 



Alvin Kinsman, of Austin, Minn., 

 spent a few days in the city, accompa- 

 nied by a party of friends'. The trip 

 from Austin was made by automobile. 

 While in St. Paul, Mr. Kinsman had the 

 misfortune to have his auto skid on the 

 wet pavement and slide into another 

 machine, resulting in damages to the 

 other machine to the extent of about 

 $50. 



Frank Berry, of Stillwater, Minn., 

 was in the city. He states that his 

 place is being remodeled and he ex- 

 presses himself as well satisfied with 

 business this summer.
