CLEVELAND, O. 



The Market. 



Last week found the market flooded 

 with gladioli and asters. Other stock ia 

 fairly plentiful but still there is not 

 such an overabundance as there is of 

 the two flowers named. The gladioli 

 are not nearly so good in quality as 

 they were earlier in the season. Asters 

 are coming in mostly in the darker col- 

 ors. The dark pink and purple are 

 much more in prominence than the other 

 colors. Gaillardias are still arriving of 

 good quality and calendulas are coming 

 in regularly and bringing $2 and $3 per 

 hundred. Roses are arriving in better 

 quantity and quality and are cleaning 

 up nicely. Maidenhair fern is arriving 

 in large quantity. At present the sup- 

 ply is much greater th^n the demand. 

 A few dahlias have put in an appear- 

 ance, but they are mostly short- 

 stemmed. The nights during the last 

 week have been cold, though the days 

 were fairly warm. If the weather had 

 been reasonably warm, the market prob- 

 ably would be still more flooded than it 

 is at present. 



Various Notes. 



A. J. Saywell and family have been

Beatrice, Neb. — Victor Ryhd, who 

 has been connected with the Dole Floral 

 Co. during the last eight years, has 

 returned from Superior, where he and 

 Bernard Hetland are to engage in the 

 florists' business. A 5-acre tract has 

 been purchased and the work of erect- 

 ing the greenhouses will begin as soon 

 as possible. Mr. Ryhd will be succeeded 

 by Edward W. Dole as superintendent 

 of the local greenhouses. He has dis- 

 posed of his stock to George M. John- 

 ston, manager of the company.
