CINCINNATI, O. 



The Market. 



Tlie market, as a whole, last week was 

 crowded with all seasonable stock. 

 ^VJiile the demand was excellent, it did 

 ,i,.t consume the stock daily and the. 

 ],(,. e refrigerators held much after the 

 jiuuning's sales were over. The retail- 

 ers say that business was exceptionally 

 goiid for this time of the year. 



Jlie large supply that came in daily 

 ni;i ie it necessary to cut the prices be- 

 low quotations on some things. Eoses 

 w: e down to $3 per hundred. The first 

 on. loor gladioli arrived last week and 

 so 1 for a price as good as for indoor 

 st( I k. America, Halley, Mrs. Francis 

 Kii^£t and Chicago White are the lead- 

 in;; varieties and all go well, owing to 

 th' fact that there is not an abundance 

 ytt, Easter lilies are more plentiful 

 lati'ly and bring an excellent price. Car- 

 nations are now a back number, as the 

 seiison is about over for them, 



'There was a large demand for smilax 

 an! southern asparagus last week and 



it can be attributed to the large num- 

 ber of weddings. Shasta daisies are ar- 

 riving in good condition and sell well, 

 the best bringing $2 per hundred. Corn- 

 flowers, coreopsis and gaillardia are still 

 hanging on, but this will be the last 

 week for them. Valley is in good sup- 

 ply and cleans up well. 



Various Notes. 



The "William Murphy Co. received 

 the first outdoor gladioli of the season 

 last week. Mr. Murphy says that busi- 

 ness is good. 



Fred Gear reports a good wedding 

 business, turning out a large number of 

 wedding bouquets daily. 



"William F. Mayhall, son-in-law of E. 

 G. Gillett, and his family have left on 

 a motor trip to Conway, Mich., and will 

 go from there to the S. A. F. convention 

 in Cleveland, where they will meet Mr. 

 Gillett and wife and motor home. 



Joseph Beran had the misfortune of 

 cashing a bogus check last week. 



Eay Murphy has received word from 

 his mother and two sisters that they ar- 



rived in Los Angeles. They are going 

 to make their home there.
