The Weekly Florists' Review^ 



October 20, 1910. 



MINNEAPOLIS. 



The Market. 



Conditions remain about tlie same as 

 last reported; some days there is a 

 slump on the market and other days 

 make up, and on the whole business is 

 good, owing to the drawn out season 

 before a killing frost. However', all are 

 looking in vain for a frost to put an 

 end to the outside supply, but the wish 

 hasn't yet been gratified. 



Roses, carnations and violets are 

 good and the supply is plentiful, but 

 not larger than the demand. Mums are 

 coming in; fine yellow predominates, 

 but good pink and white are seen and 

 all sell well. 



The Flower Show. 



Great anticipation is felt as the show 

 week approaches. As this is the first 

 show ever held in the Twin Cities, much 

 entliusiasm is shown, and all are work- 

 ing persistently to make it a success, 

 not only financially, but also to show 

 what can be done here. The show is 

 expected to compete with the Chicago 

 and Milwaukee shows, which are held 

 the same week, and it is hoped that 

 Chicago and Milwaukee visitors will 

 extend their trips and look in on the 

 show here. 



The Twin Cities are up to the front 

 in the flower world and command a 

 good surrounding territory, and a great 

 deal of interest should be shown us 

 from all neighboring cities. 



The committee in charge will spare 

 no effort to give this show a reputation 

 and perhaps bring the Twin Cities in 

 line for a national show in the future. 

 A good list of premiums has been ar- 

 ranged, and it is expected many eastern 

 firms will be well represented. 



The show will be held in Minneapolis 

 at the Armory, November 9 to 13, in- 

 clusive. 



Various Notes. 



R. A. Latham furnished many roses 

 and carnations for the opening of the 

 Model store here.* Mr. Latham spent 

 the last week hunting in the northern 

 part of the state. 



Mrs. Whitted has just completed an 

 ice chest, seventeen feet square, in 

 mahogany, to correspond with the bal- 

 ance of the fixtures. 



The Minneapolis Floral Co. is bring 

 ing in exceptionally fine Harrisii lilies, 

 of which they have a hou.se full. 



The monthly meeting of the State 

 Florists' Society took place October 18, 

 at whicii Prof. Ruggles, of the Minne 

 sota state university, delivered an in- 

 teresting talk on "Tree Borers." 



These meetings should be better at 

 tended. C. R. V.
