The Market. 



The market last week was much the 

 same as in the few weeks previous, with 

 much stock and few sales. 



Gladioli and asters are glutting the 

 market and the retailer has no difficulty 

 in getting stock at almost his own price. 

 Some exceptionally good gladioli and 

 asters sell at a fairly good price^ but 

 the majority bring only $1.50 to $3 per 

 hundred. Some fine astermums arrived, 

 but soon found a ready market because 

 of the inferiority of most of the stock. 



New carnations made their first ap- 

 pearance this season last week and went 

 only fairly, as they are still quite short 

 and the blooms small; the retailer can 

 use them only for funeral work. 



Harrisii and rubrum lilies hold up well 

 and bring a fair price. Boses are com- 

 ing in better all the time and, consider- 

 ing the abundance of other flowers, they 

 are bringing a good price; they range 

 from $4 to $15 per hundred. 



Various Notes. 



C. E. Critchell is enjoying a stay of 

 a few weeks in Bath, Me.; he intends 

 to visit the trade in the east on his way 

 back. His store is receiving some of 

 Charles Pommert 's new gladiolus, which 

 Mr. Pommert has named White Wonder. 



Earl Mann, of the E. G. Hill Co., 

 Bichmond, Ind., Mrs. Mann and their 

 children recently visited this city. Mr. 

 Mann reports a large crop of roses for 

 the fall and winter business. 



William Hull, of the Bristol Floral 

 Co., Bristol, Tenn., has recently recov- 

 ered from a two months' siege of pneu- 

 monia; he was at the Christ hospital in 

 this city. 



At the monthly meeting of the Cin- 

 cinnati Florists' Society, at H. W. Shep- 

 pard's store, a resolution was adopted 

 to the effect that the American Carna- 

 tion Society should be asked to hold its 

 1922 meeting in Cincinnati. 



Among the florists who stopped in this 

 city on their way home from the Cleve- 

 land convention were the following: 

 Mrs. Fanny White, Lexington, Ky.; M. 

 A. Herrick, Owosso, Mich.; Mrs. W, B. 

 Johnston, Chattanooga, Tenn.; Fred 

 Keller, of the John A. Keller Co., Lex- 

 ington, Ky.; Mr. and Mrs. Bambler, who 

 are connected with the store of Miss D. 

 E. Euch, Shreveport, La., and W. S. 

 Wells, of the BluMaize Blossom Shop, 

 Ann Arbor, Mich. 



The local trade was, as usual, well 

 represented at the annual county fair. 

 Ball & Betz won four first prizes for an 

 artistic floral design, a table decoration, 

 a cut flower basket and hanging ferns. 

 C. Jones had three firsts for decorative 

 plants, cut flowers and blooming plants.
