The Florists^ Review 



October 9, 1913. 



COLUMBUS, O. 



The Market. 



Trade was heavy last week, with 

 quite a good supply of stock on hand. 

 The style show was on and called for 

 everything ^in the way of decorative 

 plants, as well as cut flowers. ' The re- 

 tail merchants in all lines of trade made 

 big window displays. While several 

 florists entered for prizes, first prize fell 

 to the Union Clothing Co., the May 

 Furniture Co. being second and Good- 

 man Bros., jewelers, third. There were 

 several good windows shown by the flo- 

 rists, all worth honorable mention. 



Mums are coming in slowly as yet. 

 Nothing but Smith's Advance and 

 Golden Glow are in sight, but by the 

 end of the week there will be some 

 Estelle and Pacific on the market. Boses 

 are about all we can ask for quantity 

 and quality. Carnations are more plen- 

 tiful and are beginning to look like the 

 old favorite again, with fair stems on a 

 good proportion of the stock and the 

 outlook for good stock right along now. 

 Valley has been scarce, but the demand 

 is rather light. Snapdragon is one of 

 the best sellers we have at present, a 

 flower that seems to sell on sight. 



Ferns and palms are selling quite well, 

 blit the main call is for some pot plants 

 in bloom and the publie will not be 

 satisfied until we begin to have good 

 blooming plants. ' 



Various Notes. 



Louis Elsass, of Chillicothe, was a 

 visitor last week, taking in the Elks' 

 clambake. J. M. 



Cartilage, Mo. — Frank Finn, pro- 

 prietor of the Carthage Greenhouses, 

 has leased a room in the Boyd build- 

 ing, where he will start a flower store. 



Sheridan, Wyo. — A deal is pending 

 whereby the greenhouses of the Best 

 Floral Co., at Main and Burkitt, will 

 be taken over by S. P. Caple and H. A. 

 Loucks, from whom Mr. Best purchased 

 the flower business a year ago. In case 

 the deal goes through, Mr. Best will 

 devote his time to growing vegetables. 

 Mr. Loucks will be superintendent of 

 tlie plant, but does not expect the 

 business to interfere with his duties as 

 park supervisor.
