The Florists' Review 



July 23, 1914. 



COLUMBUS, O. 



Tlie Market. 



Trade has been quiet here the last 

 two weeks. Stock of good quality has 

 been scarce, " as the dry weather has 

 been hard on outdoor crops and the 

 intense heat has had its effect on house 

 stock. Carnations are of poor quality, 

 but there are enough of them, such as 

 they are, to go the rounds. Eoses have 

 held their own as well as anything in 

 the houses and the quality of some of 

 them is surpidsingly good. Killarney, 

 White Killarney, Maryland and Sun- 

 burst predominate at present. Beauties 

 are of somewhat poor quality and are 

 also scarce, but this is just as well, as 

 the demand is light. Gladioli are fine 

 and are really about the most satisfac- 

 tory stock we are handling; the bulk 

 of them are America and Augusta. 

 Lilies are plentiful and find a fairly 

 good market. Valley is good, with the 

 sales rather light and the supply cor- 

 respondingly light. Funeral work is 

 about all that is doing at presnt. 



Various Notes. 



There is some doubt about the florists 

 having an outing this year in a body, 

 as nothing has been done so far in that 

 respect, but they may get together in 

 the last week of this month, as that is 

 generally the time they go. 



The Ldvingston Seed Co. reports 

 trade rather quiet in all lines. 



The Columbus Floral Co. is still cut- 

 ting some carnations, but reports that 

 business is quiet. 



The Indianola Florists are preparing 

 to make a good display again at the 

 state fair. 



The Munk Floral Co. has been busy 

 repairing benches, etc., preparatory to 

 replanting their stock. 



E. Metzmaier reports that business is 

 quiet, but that there is plenty of hot 

 work in store for him. 



Sherman Stephens has changed his 

 firm name to S. F. Stephens & Son, and 

 his son will be with him from now on. 

 They report business quiet, with a lit- 

 tle spurt of funeral work now and then. 



J. M. 



HIGHLAND, N. Y. 



This place may be called the home of 

 Adiantum hybridum; Ley & Bro., for- 

 merly of Washington, D. C, who intro- 

 duced it, are growing it by the thou- 

 sands. Chicago is their best market. 



H. Batt, grower for J. F. Madden, is 

 also quite successful with this stock 

 and has several houses of it of superior 

 quality. Shipments are made to the 

 leading eastern and central markets. 

 The pecky cypress ready-made bench of 

 the King Constructipn Co. is being in- 

 stalled throughout."''^ M.
