The Fbrists' Review 



June 26, 1919. 



CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



Business wa» fair last week. There 

 was a good demand for flowers for com- 

 mencements and weddings. This 'helped 

 out considerably. The supply has short- 

 ened much since last writing. 



Eoses, except white ones, are fairly 

 plentiful and generally of good quality. 

 Carnations are in good supply, but the 

 cut is not so heavy as it was. Easter 

 lilies may be had. A few sweet peas 

 are available. The list of outdoor stock 

 includes cornflower, coreopsis, candy- 

 tuft, feverfew, larkspur and Shasta 

 daisies. Gladioli sell fairly well. Water 

 lilies have been popular. Among other 

 offerings are a few lilies of the valley 

 and snapdragons. 



Greens of all kinds, including new 

 eastern ferns, are selling well. 



Various Notes. 



Eeports from the bedside of H. W. 

 Sheppard indicate that he has success- 

 fully passed the crisis in his illness and 

 is now on the road to recovery. 



E. G. Gillett has been finding an ex- 

 cellent market for C. J. Ohmer 's aspara- 

 gus from West Palm Beach, Fla. In 

 spite of the long trip, careful packing 

 helps the shipments to come through in 

 good condition. . 



T. W. Hardesty <Sj Co. are making use 

 of a long iron pan in which they are 

 displaying pond lilies as part of their 

 window decorations. 



George Klotter has been sending 

 choice gladioli to the store of L. H 

 Kyrk the last fortnight. C. H. H. 



NEWABK, N. J. 



The Market. 



June weddings continued to be the 

 source of considerable business. Funeral 

 work was not so large as it had been. 

 There is still a little graduation work 

 from private schools. Many flowers 

 which were plentiful during the spring 

 months have disappeared, and there is 

 not the variety to choose from now that 

 there was; but other flowers, such as 

 gladioli, which have appeared but re- 

 cently, are now arriving in larger quan- 

 tities. 



Various Notes. 



Charles J. Connolly, 320 Bank street, 

 reports considerable wedding work now. 

 Funeral and graduation work is small. 

 The total volume of business is fair, but 

 nothing to boast of. R. B. M.
