CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Just as the market was showing signs 

 of easing up somewhat, another cold 

 wave came along, checked the stock 

 and caused the market to become tighter 

 than it was a fortnight ago. 



Roses still are on the short side of the 

 market. The same is true of carnations. 

 Easter lilies meet with a ready sale. 

 Bulbous stock is more plentiful and is 

 proving good property. Sweet peas sell 

 well. Valley, violets and orchids are in 

 fair supply but meet with, an ordinary 

 demand, having competition in good 

 primroses, callas, rubrum lilies, baby 

 roses, snapdragons and forget-me-nots. 

 Greens are plentiful. 



Various Notes. 



The regular meeting of the Cincinnati 

 Florists' Society will be held Monday, 

 February 12, at Hotel Gibson. 



C. E. Critchell, February 3, entertained 

 Mr. and Mrs. Herman Knoble, of Cleve- 

 land, and Mr. and Mrs. William Nich- 

 olson, of Boston, at his home in Rose 

 Hill. Mr. Critchell regrets that the 

 weather was so inclement that he was 

 unable to drive around "and show his 

 guests some of the beautiful places and 

 scenes in and about this city. 



The William Murphy Co. last week 

 got in its first Dutch hyacinth stock of 

 the year. This item sold readily. 



P. J. dinger returned to his green- 

 houses at Newcastle, Ind., February 5. 



L. H. Kyrk has been receiving good 

 quantities of long-stemmed Purity free- 

 sias from William Taylor.

 ley Flower Shop, succeeding Mrs. 

 Charles Walton. 



Among visitors last week were Wil- 

 liam P. Ward, of Dundee, HI.; S. Selig- 

 man, of the American Bulb Co., Chicago;
