The Florists' Review 



NOVBMBBB 7, 1912. 



ST. PAUL. 



Tlie Market. 



The last week's business drew heav- 

 ily on the florists. A number of debu- 

 tantes' receptions and other social af- 

 fairs proved profitable for the retailers. 

 Carnations continue to come in soft 

 and the demand is much heavier than 

 the supply. Pompons and the small- 

 flowered mums are much in demand 

 and the larger mums are also holding 

 up well. Eoses are fine and sell readily. 



Preparations for the Show. 



The preparations for the flower show 

 are rapidly nearing completion. It will 

 be impossible to get into the Audito- 

 rium until Wednesday, November 6, and 

 as the show opens on Friday, Novem- 

 ber 8, that means a great deal of work 

 to be accomplished in the two days. 



On Sunday, November 3, the leading 

 newspapers had a special section de- 

 voted to the flower show, and that, no 

 doubt, helped considerably in the way 

 of publicity. A good idea being carried 

 out by the committee is the placing of 

 blooming chrysanthemums in the show 

 windows of the leading business houses 

 and calling attention to the flower show. 

 The trophies, which have been tempo- 

 rarily on exhibition at Holm & Olson's, 

 have been placed in a window of the 

 Boston Clothing House for exhibition. 



Various Notes. . 



Hoffman & Sullivan, the new firm 

 that recently located at 18 West Sixth 

 street, will hold their formal opening 

 next week. Though the firm is new to 

 St. Paul, both members have been with 

 L. L. May & Co. for a number of years. 

 Their location is advantageous and, as 

 they are both hustlers, they should 

 build a good business. y^ 



L. L. May, O. J. Olson antf Charles 

 Vogt have been appointed as a commit- 

 tee to arrange for a banquet to be held 

 on Monday, November 11, to visitors 

 and local florists. C. R. F. 



Carthage, ni. — Robert C. Crum has 

 had an active fall business, including 

 decorations for college banquets and a 

 good amount of funeral trade, and the 

 weather has been favorable to the sup- 

 ply of plenty of go6d stock. 



Mitchell, S. D.— W. T. March, lately 

 of McCook, Neb., has taken over the 

 general management of tne corporation 

 known as The Newburys, the largest 

 horticultural establishment in South 

 Dakota. Mrs. March has taken Mrs. E. 

 C. Newbury's place in the flower store. 

 The Newburys are retiring to southern 

 California for a much needed rest.
