The Florists' Review 



June 19, 1913. 



ST. PAUXs MINN. 



The Market. 



Business last week continued to keep 

 the retailers hustling. The general 

 business is good. Funeral work is 

 •plentiful and all are getting their share 

 of the June weddings, which are numer- 

 ous. Stock of all kinds is abundant. 

 In roses the market is a little over- 

 stocked, but not suflSciently to cause 

 any anxiety to the growers. Carna- 

 tions hold out well. Sweet peas are 

 good; so, also, are all varieties of 

 orchids. The orchids are good sellers. 

 Some fine peonies, " local-grown stock, 

 are on the market and they move 

 readily. 



The outside planting season is about 

 over and all florists report a busy sea- 

 son, short but sweet. The growers are 

 busy with their houses, getting ready 

 for next season. 



Various Notes. 



Superintendent Nussbaumer, of the 

 city parks, has been doing his utter- 

 most to procure a new range of houses 

 at Como park and his efforts have been 

 rewarded by the Assembly, which has 

 authorized a bond issue of $57,000 for 

 the erection of new structures. New 

 houses are much needed, as the old ones 

 are in bad shape. 



The annual midsummer meeting of 

 the Minnesota Horticultural Society 

 will take the form of a picnic at the 

 University Farm, Friday, June 20. Ex- 

 hibits of peonies, roses and other sum- 

 mer-blooming stock are to be sent to 

 the station and will be entered for a 

 large number of premiums offered by 

 the society. The meeting will be open 

 to all interested in flowers. There will 

 be demonstrations in spraying devices 

 for various insects; these demonstra- 

 tions should prove interesting to all in 

 the trade. Prof. Le Roy Cady is ar- 

 ranging for the picnic. 



Ernest Holmstrom, .recently of ffolm 

 & Olson, has leased for a term of^ears 

 the Schulze greenhouses, on La Fond 

 street. Mr. Holmstrom will continue 

 the same general line of stock. All in 

 the trade wish him success in his new 

 enterprise. 



Mr. Piemen, of the Piemen Floral Co., 

 of Staples, was a caller last week and 

 visited the various establishments. 



Frank McCabe, of the A. L. Ean- 

 dall Co., spent a few days calling on 

 the trade. 



The death of Emil Borchart, of the 

 firm of L. Anderson & Co., is reported 

 in this week's obituary column.
