CINCINNATI, O. 



The llarket. 



Last week saw the local market 

 flooded with stock, which moved slowlj 

 in most instaHces. Dahlias and cosmos 

 were in oversupply and even mums sold 

 at only moderate prices. Of course, 

 pompons were in demand. These flow- 

 ers are arriving in variety of color and 

 sell readily. Lily of the valley was 

 about the only stock not available; 

 there is a good demand for it and only 

 a small supply. Easter and rubrum 

 lilies find only a fair demand, but are 

 arriving in quantity. Carnations take 

 a more important part in the market 

 and are used considerably in funeral 

 work. Boses clean up at only a fair 

 price. 



The first violets of the season did not 

 last long, arriving in small quantity. 

 Indoor snapdragon now finds a demand, 

 since the outdoor stock is ended for the 

 season. The weather, of course, is the 

 cause of the present glut. 



Various Notes. 



H. E. Klunder is again with H. W. 

 Sheppard, whose store has been quite 

 busy for the last week. 



Gus Adrian, Sr., of Clifton, is retiring 

 from business. Mr. Adrian is a well 

 known grower in the vicinity of Cincin- 

 nati and the trade here will lose an 

 active and wide-awake member. Gus, 

 Jr., will take over the establishment 

 and continue to operate. Mr. Adrian, 

 Sr., plans to visit his daughter in Cali- 

 fornia and eventually make his home 

 there. 



C. E. Critchell reports brisk business 

 in mums, delphiniums and greenhouse 

 smilax. 



P. J. Olinger found a good demand 

 for Unaka mums last week and cleaned 

 up in that variety. 



The William Murphy Co. and the Cin- 

 cinnati Cut Flower Exchange both re- 

 port a good week in specialty lines. 



L. H. Kyrk is taking charge of the 

 branch of the McCallum Co. in Cincin- 

 nati, formerly under Frank Smith's 

 management. 



Visitors at Cincinnati last week 

 were: P. A. Simpson, of the Capital 

 City Floral Co., Charleston, W. Va.; 

 Thomas Joy, Nashville, Tenn.; L. C. 

 Anderson, Lebanon, Tenn.; H. F. Win- 

 ters, Charleston, W. Va.; Mr. and Mrs. 

 C. A. Bauer, Dayton, O.; Mrs. J. J.

I Can Do 50r; More Work 



With My Beeman Than I Can Do 

 With A Horse and A 5-Tooth Cultivator" 



A prominent wholesale florist and nupseryman, of Wis- 

 consin, writes: 



"I have used the Beeman Garden Tractor all last summer and must say that 

 I am well satisfied with it. It is a great time sayer in cultirating small truck, 

 such as onions, beets, etc. The weight of the tractor keeps the cnltiyator 

 even deep in the ground. 



"I have also used it for heary cultivating, such as corn and potatoes. I am a 

 florist and am using it in the peony, dahlia and gladielus fields. There the 

 Beeman tiikes the place of a horse. I can do 60^ more work with it than I can 

 with a horse and a 6-tooth cultivator. Comparing it with one horse cnltivating 

 and the gfMoline it uses in a day is abont as much as the horse will eat in a meal . ' ' 



What the Beeman is doing for others it will do for you — save you time 

 and money on practically every one-horse and hand cultivator job. And 

 do the work more eflBciently.
