CLEVELAND, O. 



The Market. 



RetailcTs in this vicinity were com- 

 plaining last week that business has 

 been extremely slow and the crowded 

 condition of the market would easily 

 bear out their statements. With the ex- 

 ception of Saturday, June 18, business 

 has been extremely dull. There have 

 been a few weddings and funerals, 

 which have kejjt business just about 

 moving. Saturday, June 18, was quite 

 good, however, business being brisk. 

 Boses are being received in good shape 

 outside of shipped stock, although they 

 are not so long as usual, most of them 

 running short and medium. Carnations 

 are getting small and the quality is 

 poor. 



Peonies from storage have been mov- 

 ing nicely and have been used exten- 

 sively for graduation exercises, while 

 some commencements which call for 

 cheaper stock have been taken care of 

 nicely with white daisies. Ramblers 

 have made their appearance and are 

 moving fairly well. Delphiniums are 

 being received in good condition in both 

 light and dark blue. Gaillardias, bach- 

 elor's buttons, Easter lilies, achilleas, 

 coreopsis and sweet peas are coming in 

 well. 



Various Notes. 



Stephen Berthold, of the Cleveland 

 Plant & Flower Co., is on a two weeks' 

 vacation, whidi he is spending at his 

 summer cottage in the country. 



Mr. Stuhldreher, of Stuhldreher Bros., 

 Mansfield, O., was a recent visitor.

The amount of graduation work is 

 growing now, tliough the aggregate is 

 far below what it was years ago, when 

 floral gifts could be jjresented in public 

 in all schools. Tlie transient trade at 

 present is dull, partly on account of the 

 fact that such large numbers are unem- 

 ployed. Prices, though much below 

 those of a year ago, are not yet down 

 to pre-war levels. 



McLaughlin & Murphy, 181 Clinton 

 avenue, report a good deal of funeral 

 and wedding work, and considerable 

 graduation work. R. B. M.
