CINCINNATI. 



The Market. 



The daily supply in the market eased 

 up considerably last week, at the be- 

 ginning of Lent, and naturally prices 

 took a drop. Every line in the market 

 shows a substantial increase in quan- 

 tity. The opening and close of last 

 week were much better than mid-week. 



Boses and carnations generally clean 

 up readily. Lilies, including Easter 

 lilies, callas and rubrums, meet with a 

 fair sale. Smaller bulbous stock is 

 generally good, but meets with no spe- 

 cial demand. Sweet peas are fine and 

 generally sell well. Valley and violets 

 are moving rather slowly. The best 

 single violets, however, have a ready 

 sale. Other offerings include mignon- 

 ette, forget-me-not, primroses, wall- 

 flowers and orchids. The supply of 

 greens is easily sufficient for require- 

 ments. 



Various Notes. 



P. J. dinger and wife have had as 

 their guests for the last fortnight, Mr. 

 and Mrs. Fred Funk, of Emerado, N. D. 



Fred Brueggeman is receiving con- 

 gratulations from his friends on the 

 recent visit of the stork, with a daugh- 

 ter, Julia Rose Brueggeman. 



George Klotter sent in his first 

 mignonette of the season last week. 



The E. G. Hill Floral Co. had a large 

 decoration at Hotel Gibson Feb- 

 ruary 22. 



Visitors: O. C. Heberling, George- 

 town, Ky.; Chas. Pommert, Amelia, O.;

 Kroeschell Bros. Co., Chicago; Robert 

 Rahaley, of the Michigan Cut Flower 

 Exchange, Detroit; Jos. Hill and wife,

Ashtabula, O. — What is said to be the 

 largest greenhouse in the state of Ohio 

 has just been completed and has re- 

 ceived its first planting of lettuce. It 

 is that of the recently organized J. H. 

 Rice Co. and measures 85 x 540. There 

 is a propagating house 32 x 230 feet. 

 The power house, 84 x 106, has been 

 built with an eye to expansion. Two 

 ISO-horsepower marine boilers furnish 

 the heat; foundations have been laid 

 for five more boilers of similar capacity. 

 An overhead tramway on which hopper 

 cars will run from the boiler room to 

 a railroad spur obviates the necessity of 

 unloading the coal by hand. An electric 

 railroad from the greenhouse to the 

 ' packing room will be installed, to carry 

 fertilizer, etc., and the products of the 

 house.

We are frequently complimented on the high quality of the

 so well rooted. Well, that is the kind of cuttings we believe in. We 

 select the cvttings that ar» propagated for selling, just as carefully 

 as those intended for our own stock. That's why they give satisfac- 

 tion. We are propagating : —
