The Florists' Review 



August 18, 1921 



CLEVELAND, O. 



The Maxket. 



Business has been slow the last week, 

 but still it compares favorably with the 

 normal business done before the war. 

 The weather has been somewhat cooler, 

 but not enough so to affect the market 

 any. The market is still flooded with 

 gladioli, but not nearly so badly as in 

 previous years. Asters are better at 

 present, but there is not nearly the 

 quantity there was last year. They 

 have been moving slowly, but have been 

 cleaning up fairly well. Roses are get- 

 ting better daily, although they are not 

 extremely long yet, the majority being 

 of short and medium stock. The outdoor 

 miscellaneous stock is still going strong, 

 such as calendulas, delphiniums, gail- 

 lardias, single and double, zinnias, 

 bachelor's buttons and Golden Glow. 

 Easter lilies and Japanese lilies, both 

 short and long, have been moving 

 nicely. 



Various Notes. 



Mr. Brandt, of Wertheimer Bros., 

 New York, was a recent visitor. 



Miss Mercer has returned from her 

 trip up the lakes, but has left again for 

 two more weeks' vacation. 



Allan Humason and brother, of the 

 Raedlein Basket Co., Chicago, were 

 recent visitors. W. A. R. 



Molina, 111. — H. S. Dickinson is spe- 

 cializing in the growing of roses. 



Ada, Okla. — W. E. Pitt reports that 

 he is benching his carnations. He has 

 about 10,000 plitnts this year, having 

 increased his plantings of Ward and 

 Supreme. He has about 1,000 plants of 

 White Wonder and is cutting down on 

 his White Enchantress. He says that 

 Matchless does not do well in his sec- 

 tion, as the flowers are small and are 

 badly infested v.ith red spider. He also 

 states that the weather in the section 

 around Ada has been hot and dry and 

 that rain is sorelv needed.
