CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



Business has assumed a normal tone, 

 with stock slightly in excess of the de- 

 mand. Asters are still abundant and of 

 excellent quality, l)ut gladioli are rap- 

 idly growing inferior. A few carna- 

 tions are coming in and are eagerly 

 picked up. Dahlias have begun to cut 

 a larger figure in the market, some 

 choice stock being offered. As there are 

 no chrysanthemums as yet, tritomas, 

 marigolds and heleniums are much

 markets during the last month. 



Roses are in strong supi)ly and are of 

 especially good quality for this time of 

 the year. In size, color and substance

 rather than of the present month. The 

 splendid growing temperature during 

 August is responsible for this extremely 

 favorable condition. 



Various Notes. 



A. A. Hart, for many years in busi- 

 ness on Lake avenue, has definitely de-

An interesting figure in local circles 

 is W. C. Detling, proprietor of the Sun- 

 shine Flower Gardens, Greenwich, O., 

 from which point he daily consigns out- 

 door stock to the Cleveland market. He 

 has a large acreage devoted to asters, 

 gladioli and sweet peas, and gathers 

 only the best flowers for the market, 

 packing them with utmost care. This

work is Mr. Detling 's avocation, his 

 vocation being minister, in active charge 

 of his congregation. 



A similar enterprise is the Wayside 

 Gardens, at Mentor, O., conducted by 

 C. B. Gates. The output is delivered 



to the market by auto truck. It is han- 

 dled carefully and brought in in an up- 

 right position in pails, arriving in an 

 unbruised and perfect condition. H. R. 

 Jenks, who has charge, reports a suc- 

 cessful season, the demand for his stock
