There Is a reason why Wizard Brand Sheep Manure Is more exten- 

 sively used by Florists than any other:— Best for Carnatlous and Chrys- 

 anthemums — Best for making bench soil — liquid manuring— and field 

 work. Ask for our Growers' Booklet and know why Wizard Brand leads.

ST. PAUL, MINN. 



Tbe Market. 



Conditions last week were quite satis- 

 factory to the florists. Stock is getting 

 more plentiful, especially carnations, 

 which are also improving in quality. 

 Business continues to improve. Some 

 exceptionally fine mums are coming to 

 this market. 



Various Notes. 



The Minnesota State Florists' Asso- 

 ciation met in Minneapolis, at the Park 

 Board greenhouses, October 15. A good 

 representation from St. Paul was in 

 attendance. 



The general committee of the flower 

 show met at Holm & Olson 's store, Octo- 

 ber 16, and all reported progress. 

 August Swanson, who was formerly of 

 this city but has now withdrawn from 

 the florists' business, will act in the 

 capacity of superintendent of the show. 

 The members of the committee consider 

 themselves fortunate in securing so able 

 a superintendent. 



A new firm will enter the field here 

 soon. Messrs. Hoffman and SuUivi^n, 

 formerly of L. L. May & Co., have 

 leased a store at 18 "West Sixth street 

 and expect to be ready for business by 

 November 1. 



C. E. Schaefer, of the La Crosse 

 Floral Co., La Crosse, Wis., was a visitor 

 in the Twin Cities last week. 



C. R. F. 



Minneapolis, Minn. — The Hiawatha 

 Gardens Co. will build another green- 

 house, 40 X 190, and a brick and steel 

 office, at a total cost of about $8,000.
