The Florists' Review 



Febbuaby 5, 1914. 



ST. PAUL, MINN. 



The Market. 



Business continues dull, with just a 

 few good days to stimulate the trade at 

 this time. Funeral work is the prin- 

 cipal item with retailers and that has 

 spasmodically been good. The general 

 business is quiet and no doubt will be 

 so for some time. Stock is exception- 

 ally scarce and what is coming into this 

 market is not of the best quality. Boses 

 are almost impossible to procure here. 

 During the recent scarcity of violets 

 several retailers have continued han- 

 dling California violets. They seem 

 well pleased with results they have ob- 

 tained. 



Various Notes. 



E. P. Holm, of Holm & Olson, has 

 been confined to his bed for the last 

 three weeks, suffering from an attack of 

 bronchitis, which developed into pneu- 

 monia. The critical stage has passed, 

 however, and he seems to be slowly 

 recovering. 



Gus. Colberg, of L. L. May & Co., has 

 been confined to his home for the last 

 week with a severe cold. 



The St. Paul Florists' Club held its 

 first dance at the North Central Com- 

 mercial Club's hall on the evening of 

 February 3. 



Wm. Keeling, of Holm & Olson, is at 

 St. Joseph's hospital, where he under- 

 went an operation for appendicitis. He 

 is getting on as well as can be expected 

 at this time. 



The West Side Floral Co., of which 

 Munich & Wahler are the proprietors, 

 is sending in a fairly good cut of roses, 

 about as good as are to be had now. 



A. Currie, Jr., of A. Currie & Co., Mil- 

 waukee, accompanied by Mrs. Currie, 

 spent several days here last week. 



Mrs. Henry A. Boardman, the owner 

 of the Kiverside Greenhouses, will open 

 a retail store in the St. Paul hotel about 

 the middle of February. J. A. McLel- 

 lan, formerly with the Flower Shop, of 

 Minneapolis, will have charge. 



Ross Bragg, of Rochester, Minn., was 

 a caller for a few davs last week.

Now's the time to gain on 



Spring 



If you wait for the weather to start your Spring plants, the market will 

 be gone before you have anything to offer. An eaulpment of Sunlight Double 

 Glass Sasb should be ordered early. They provide growing conditions even 

 in the worst weather. The ^-inch air space between the two layers of glass 

 shuts out the cold and holds in the warmth, letting in the light and pro- 

 tecting better than mats or boards. 



Ten years use has proved their success. Made of the best cyoress; glazed 

 or repaired in half the usual time: eliminating all need of mats or shutters; 

 making plants early without undue forcing— they are simply indispensable 

 to obtain the best results. 



A new double glass greenhouse 



The Sunlight idea has been carried into an inexpensive greenhouse. 11 x 12, 

 lx'24, 11x36, or 11x48 feet in size. It is made of Sunlight Double Glass 

 Sash, which are instantly removable when the greenhouse is idle for use on 

 hot-beds or cold-frames. Thus they serve a double purpose. Sash ordered 

 now for Spring work may be used on a greenhouse frame ordered at your 

 convenience for next Fall or Winter. 



Write for these two books todRT 



One Is a book by Prof. Massey, an authority on hot-bed and cold-frame garden- 

 ing, and the other 1b our free catalogue. If you want Prof. Massey's book, enclose
