CLEVELAND, O. 



The Market. 



IJiisiiu'ss contimics ([iiiet, with all llio 

 trjide ])rayinjj for a frost in order to 

 stimulate business a little. The last 

 few weeks have been exceptionally dull, 

 l)iit the trade is looking forward to a 

 sjdendid business this winter. 



The siijiply lias been a little heavier 

 than usual. Dahlias are arriving now 

 in quantity, while gladioli are not quite 

 so good, but nevertheless are moving 

 fairly well. Koses are better, both in 

 quantity and quality, and are moving 

 well, considering the condition of the 

 market. Good roses are bringing from 

 $3 to $10 per hundred at present. 



Various Notes. 



All the wholesale houses closed all 

 day Ijabor day, but remained open Sun- 

 day morning.

KANSAS CITY, KAN. 



In civic pride, T. A. Moseley opines 

 that this municipality does not receive 

 in other parts the consideration to 

 which its 100,000 inhabitants give it 

 title. Its companion city over the state 

 line overshadows it, as it were. How- 

 ever, it is gratifying to know that a 

 florist from this side has been selected 

 to lielp the ticket to be presented at the 

 Florists' Club for election at its meet- 

 ing in October. 



Asters have done well in this locality 

 this season, a fact not only encouraging 

 to florists who grow them and to the 

 home-owners who liavc found success 

 with them, but also to local seed grow- 

 ers such as the S. Bryson Ayres Co., at 

 Independence, Mo.
