The Florists^ Review

acres of land in Madison, O., on which 

 ho intends to grow a general line of 

 nursery stock. 



Salable-sized plants of Spira-a An- 

 thony Waterer and Berberis Thunbergii 

 are at a premium. 



The soil in Painesville, O., and 

 vicinity is adapted to the growing of 

 nursery stock in general. This accounts 

 for the nianv nursery firms here.

The Market. 



There has been a glut in the wholesale 

 cut flower market for the last month. 

 This is due largely to the unusually fine 

 autumn, with its days of sunshine, 

 lengthening the life of the outdoor crops 

 and producing unprecedented quantities 

 of greenhouse stock. 



Chrysanthemums are still in large sup- 

 ply, there being large quantities of Bon- 

 naffon, Chadwick, etc. Eaton and 

 Seidewitz are arriving daily, at prices 

 from $1.50 to $3 per dozen. Eoses are 

 abundant in all varieties, except Ward. 

 The heaviest cut is in Premier. Prices 

 advanced some what at Thanksgiving 

 time. All the stock has fine color. 



Carnations are still holding at $5 to 

 $6 per hundred and there are none too 

 many at that price. Violets are in fair 

 demand, selling at 35 and 50 cents per 

 hundred. California violets sell at 25 

 cents a bunch retail. Plenty of ca- 

 lendulas can be had at $3 and $4 per 

 hundred. Callas are beginning to come 

 in at $3 per dozen. Sweet peas find 

 ready buyers at $2 per hundred. 



Blooming plants are featured in some 

 stores, especially narcissi, cyclamens 

 and pot mums. T. E. E. 



SEATTLE NOTES. 



[Concluded lri)m paBe l-'O.] 



ing some fine Colunil)ia roses, combining 

 these with mums and violets to produce 

 a highly effective window. 



T. A. Boyce, secretary of the Wood- 

 ruff-Boyee Seed Co., lias returned from 

 a several weeks' business trip to nearby 

 points. 



In an effort to clear the big supply of 

 mums, the initial advertisements for the 

 Seattle Florists' Association appeared 

 Monday and Tuesday of the holiday 

 week. Half pages were used in the 

 Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelli- 

 gencer, a quarter page in the Seattle 

 Star and a 5-column 7-inch advertise- 

 ment in the Seattle Union Record. This 

 was followed up by 8-foot window 

 posters for use on the retailers' windows 

 and carrying the slogan, "Say Thanks- 

 giving with Flowers. ' ' H. M.
