CINCINNATI. 



The Oateway to the South. 



Last week 's market proved to be 

 rather poor. The opening was none 

 too good, while during the middle of 

 the week a large influx of all season- 

 able flowers brought on a weakened 

 condition. On Friday and Saturday 

 the demand was much better than dur- 

 ing the preceding days. 



Chrysanthemums are in a heavy sup- 

 ply. The price of even the best is not 

 up to what it ought to be. The smaller 

 stock has sold readily, but at extremely 

 low prices. Eose offerings continue 

 large and include fine Killarney and 

 White Killarney and a heavy crop of 

 good Kichmond. The longer grades of 

 American Beauties are plentiful, while 

 the shorter grades are rather scarce. 

 Carnations are more plentiful and are 

 about the only flower offered in quan- 

 tity that enjoyed a good market last 

 week. Their price naturally was weak- 

 ened by the glut of other stock. The 

 limited numbers of lilies that are 

 coming in are fully adequate for re- 

 quirements. Both valley and orchids 

 sell well. A limited call is springing 

 up for violets. Some snapdragon is 

 offered. The supply of all kinds of 

 greens, including smilax, is sufficient 

 for requirements. 



Various Notes. 



Four local florists are candidates for 

 office this fall. They include Wm. 

 Sunderbruch, for mayor of Lockland, 

 O. ; Ernst Manthey, Jr., for mayor of 

 St. Bernard, O.; Chas. McCrea, for 

 commissioner of Newport, Ky., and 

 Chas. Murphy, for treasurer of Delhi 

 township. All are reasonably sure of 

 being the first past the wire on election 

 day. 



C. E. Critchell was recently in re- 

 ceipt of a large shipment of oak sprays. 



E. G. Gillett has been receiving 

 some fine Chrysolora mums from Geo. 

 Bayer, of Toledo, O. Miss Laura 

 Murphy has left for the south, to spend 

 the winter. 



Jos. Volz & Son haVe been sending 

 some fine early mums to the Cincin- 

 nati Cut Flower Exchange.
