The Florists^ Review 



October 81, 1912. 



ST. PAUL. 



The Market. 



Business was exceptionally good last 

 week. Funeral work was plentiful and 

 a number of receptions and other social 

 affairs helped the flower business. Stock 

 is more plentiful and some fine flowers 

 of all kinds are coming in. 



Show Preparations. 



The flower show is the talk of the 

 town at this time and a number of new 

 committees were appointed at a recent 

 meeting: Committee to handle passes 

 —Messrs. May, Dysinger and Eckhardt. 

 Committee to take charge of ticket 

 office and doors — Messrs. Eckhardt and 

 Hermes. Committee to take charge of 

 flower booths — Messrs. Bingham, Han- 

 sen and Holm. Music committee — 

 >iessrs. Keid, Lauritzen and Hansen, 

 [nformation committee of ten, C. E. 

 Schaffer, of La Crosse, Wis., chairman, 

 the members to be named later. Mrs. 

 Ruff was appointed to look after the 

 photographic contest. One novel fea- 

 ture of this is to be a set of pictures 

 illustrating tree surgery. Season tickets 

 in lots of ten will be distributed this 

 week by a committee from the Asso- 

 ciation of Commerce. The program will 

 carry no advertising, and it is thought 

 this will commend itself to our mer- 

 chants, as they are being constantly 

 solicited for advertising for various 

 programs. In place of this advertising, 

 they will be asked to buy tickets to 

 distribute to their employees, friends 

 and customers, and it is hoped in this 

 manner to sell several thousand tickets 

 in advance of the opening of the show. 

 Season tickets will be sold for $2, good 

 for the four days of the show and the 

 symphony concert on Sunday. A num- 

 ber of special features have been pre- 

 pared to interest the general public, 

 like Governor's day. Elks' day, etc., 

 and the newspapers are boosting the 

 show. 



The premium committee has received 

 a trophy from J. F. Wilcox & Sons, of 

 Council Bluffs, la., suitably engraved, 

 which will be awarded in place of one 

 of the cash premiums. 



Various Notes. 



Miss O'Keefe, who a year ago pur- 

 chased the Swanson store in the Endi- 

 cott arcade, was married October 19. 

 The lucky man is A. E. Spencer, an 

 expert chemist. Mrs, Spencer will con- 

 tinue her store. 



A. F. Longren, of Poehlmann Bros. 

 Co., Chicago, spent a few days in the 

 city last week, also Julius Dilloff, of 

 Schloss Bros., New York. C. R. F.

 we know that a trial order will show yon that our 

 pipe carriers are the best. Gret our prices.
