AMBITIOUS PLiNS FOR THIS YBAR'S FLOWER SHOW.—lODGES FROM THE BAST.—BIG SOM IN PRIZE MONEY.—SEASON SATISFAC- TORY TO THE TRADE. Flower show preparations are already well under way. The management has been determined upon, if, indeed, there was any question about it, tor the staflis the same as made the big success last year, and the work on the premium list is already well along. F. J. Taggart is stirring up the publicity end and John Thorpe is looking after exhibiti. It is reported that Mr. Thorpe declined an ofter of the management of the New York show in October to return to hii duties here. Mr. Taggart has announced the judges to be John Young, secretary of the New York Florists' Club; Edwin Lons- dale, secretary of the Florists' Club of Philadelphia and of the Chrysanthemum Society of America, and E. A. Kanst, assistant secretary of the Horticultural Society of Chicago. The latter was one of last year's judges. The plans contem- plate more than $7,000 in premiums for the regular classes and a large sum in special prizes. Trade is continuing good with the down town retailers, while those florists on the outskirts have all they can do in the way of planting. The year has been a verv good one here and, while those who are looking for trouble can always find cause for complaint, everyone has reason to be satisfied with trade condi- tions in general.
