Demand Brague's Cut Ferns from your wholesaler. If 

 you do not get them, you are not getting the best. If he does 

 not keep them, write us. We will tell you where to get them.

The riowcr Show. 



The flower show, to be held Novem- 

 ber 5 to 9, is at present the prominent 

 issue of the local flower interests. The 

 Eochester Florists' Association is pro- 

 moting the show and it promises to far 

 surpass their two previous shows. 



Though this is claiming a great deal, 

 the last meeting of the general com- 

 mittee, held Wednesday night, October 

 23, seemed to bear out the claim. 

 Charles H. Vick, chairman of the gen- 

 eral committee, called upon the differ- 

 ent committee chairmen for a report of 

 the work they had done up to date and 

 of what they proposed to do. Secretary 

 Roland B. Woodward, of the Cham- 

 ber of Commerce, then gave a short 

 talk, in which he assured the associa- 

 tion of the hearty support of the city. 

 He complimented the members on the 

 work they were doing and upon the 

 influence exerted. 



Important among the reports was 

 that of Ferdinand Keller, chairman of 

 the decoration committee. He has 

 promised to give something new and 

 effective in the line of hall decorations. 

 The decorations, with the aid of Mr. 

 Parker, of the Railway & Light Co., 

 will be combined with a unique light- 

 ing scheme, that should, to say the 

 least, be elaborate and harmonious. 



The local exhibitors have, with two 

 or three exceptions, arranged to ex- 

 hibit again this year. These few va- 

 cancies were soon filled. 



In the work of advertising, the asso- 

 ciation has, among other mediums, en- 

 listed the aid of many of the large com- 

 mercial establishments. 



The committees have, by hard work 

 and skillful management, succeeded in 

 keeping the cost below their previous 

 figures. This allows them to keep the 

 price of admission the same as in pre- 

 vious years — 25 cents for adults and 10 

 cents for children. Invitations are ex- 

 tended to the orphan homes and simi- 

 lar institutions of the city for two 

 mornings. 



The ladies of the Auxiliary Society 

 have been active in their help, and to 

 them goes no small share of the credit 

 for the hoped-for success.
