 tion: L. L. May, president; O. J. Olson, 

 vice-president; 0. F. Vogt, treasurer;

 mitter.

 ably known to the trade throughout the 

 country, has been appointed superin- 

 tendent of the show.

 the St. Paul florists has been subscribed 

 and a large portion of it already paid 

 in with the understanding that all pre- 

 miums awarded to outside exhibitors 

 shall be paid first. 



On two evenings J. K. M. L. Far 

 quhar, of Boston, president-elect of the

 with lantern slides an-d for other dates

 are thought certain to result in a big 

 aiteBdance.

 with prizes aggregating $6,000 in value. 

 A large number of cash prizes and 

 trophies are oflfered by members of the 

 trade and its allied industries through- 

 out the country. The following will 

 serve as judges: W. N. Rudd, of Mor- 



Sn Park, HI.; J. S. Wilson, Des Moines, 

 .; W. L. Rock, Kansas City, Mo., and

 pected there will be keen competition 

 in all classes and with weather asi 

 favorable as other conditions this show 

 should be a record breaker.
